SIGLUNES GUESTHOUSE

I finally was able to book a reservation for hotel and restaurant. Neither disappointed. The room has a stylish small sink equipped with a water glass, washcloth, hand towel and bathtowel. Single bed for me, very clean pillowcases and sheets, nice comforter and large window that the top opens for air. A desk and chair in the room The shared bathroom was clean, European size shower. The doors on both the room and bathroom has serious locks. Doors are heavy so be mindful, as the closing could be loud. The room supplied earplugs under the little drawer next to bed. I arranged my bed so I could look at the mountain as I fell asleep and woke up. Another bonus.

The hotel-decorated in old style but very tastefully curated and arranged furniture. In the dining room are four outstanding repurposed wooden pieces by local artist, Aðalheiður S. Eysteinsdottir. She has an exhibition at HOF in Akureyri.

The staff. Very congenial, lovely people who takes their job seriously. Service excellent. The 2nd chef was convinced to leave Morocco by either the owner or the first chef, as she was the top chef in Morocco. A chef's chef.

The dinner: lamb tangine. The smell alone will seduce you. Wherever the cinnamon comes from, it is lightly used and properly incorporated into the dish. IMHO you must combine the couscous in with the lamb. Why waste the delicious juices? Soup comes first, I am told its traditional Moroccan, but I didn't understand it. I ordered the number 2 bottle of red wine on the list. Its was dry and perfect.

Yes, I will be back for the fish tagine next.

The best hotel in town. The staff are very friendly. The location is amazing. Please book a table in the restaurant of the hotel, very good food.

Mooi hotel met mooie schone kamers.
Inrichting van het hotel is met veel vintage spullen en meubilair en het is best moeilijk om dat goed te doen, maar ik vind het hier goed gelukt.
Kamers zijn een beetje gehorig.
Ontbijtbuffet is wat karig, wat weinig keus.

Nous sommes très partagés au sujet de cet établissement… On a adoré la table : les tajines sont à tomber par terre … et complètement inattendues dans ce fin-fond d’Islande ! Nous avons plutôt apprécié la déco de la chambre, mais la petitesse de la salle de bain reste un souvenir négatif.. Le petit-déjeuner est loin d’être à la hauteur du dîner.. et c’est dommage ! Quant à l’environnement de l’hôtel, il est tellement banal que la vue des fenêtres de chambre en devient tristounette !
