Litli Geysir Hotel is on Route 35, located only 200 metres from the world famous Geysir hot spring in Iceland’s Haukadalur Valley. It offers an in-house restaurant as well as free access to WiFi and free parking.

The Gullfoss Waterfall is a 10-minute drive from the hotel. Reykjavík city centre is a 1.5-hour drive away. The room was simple but comfortable. There is no kettle in the room but there is complimentary tea and coffee near the reception. The location is right across the Geysir so you can go at the end of the day when it's less crowded. The best of all was the dinner and the breakfast. We stayed 12 days in Iceland and it was by far the best we've had. The breakfast has a huge choice of food, including a very special Geysir bread that you can't find anywhere else. The dinner was excellent and the prices were correct for Iceland.
