Very good quality hotel offering rooms, the most luxurious of which have private verandas and a whirlpool bath

Hotel Ranga is a luxury hotel in the south of the country. It's one of the few 4-star hotels in this part of Iceland - a distinction that's amply justified. The building, all in wood, is superb and warm. The rooms are divided between the main building and small individual chalets. Each is uniquely decorated, combining a chic winter chalet ambience with a mix of country and more contemporary furnishings. The most luxurious suites offer private verandas and even a private whirlpool bath. The décor is Scandinavian-inspired in the rooms, and the common areas are also very pleasant, decorated with local works of art carefully chosen by Friðrik Pálsson, the owner. An avid traveler and enthusiast, you're likely to come across him during your stay, and he'll be delighted to share his anecdotes and give you tips for excursions in the region. The Hotel Ranga offers a variety of themed packages, from gourmet experiences to romantic getaways, as well as a range of daytime activities. Thanks to powerful telescopes and a starry sky devoid of light pollution, the Ranga is also the ideal place to observe the famous northern lights. All in all, this is an excellent address, overlooking the river and the Hekla, with a top-quality gourmet restaurant and heated outdoor pool: everything you need for an unforgettable stay.

This hotel was absolutely gorgeous and by far one of the best places I stayed in Iceland (if not the best). The rooms are absolutely beautiful, the staff were superb and food was outstanding. Not only that, but everything is thought out for guests - the observatory night with the visiting astronomer was such a great little treat and the attention to detail with the aurora alarms etc is fantastic. You have to stay here!

Loved our stay here. It feels like a premium experience. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and patient with us. Love that they give an incentive to book direct, as well. Try this place!

A very lovely, cosy hotel. Staff were very friendly, rooms were nice and clean, the food was great. The only downside is it can get a bit noisy when people start getting up.

Wonderfully located hotel and very much set up to do some aurora watching. We were lucky enough to be there during a solar eclipse and had the most perfect weekend listening to astrology lectures, star gazing, aurora watching and viewing the eclipse through the solar telescope. The restaurant was very good too and the hot tub was just the icing on the cake.
