Hotel Ranga is located about 90 minutes from Reykjavik. The drive was easy and there were some sights along the way. Upon arrival, the staff at Hotel Ranga was very welcoming, which is exactly what we needed after a long day of travel. Our 2 rooms were ready when we got there and was very comfortable for our party of 4. Everything was very clean and spacious. The hotel had a wake up system for the Northern Lights and we were very fortunate in that the light activity was strong that night. We had both our evening meals at the restaurant at the hotel and the food was delicious. The only issue we encountered during our stay was with dinner service on our second night. There was a mix-up in the timing and delivery of our food, particularly with the salads and the cod entrée. The salad ordered as an entrée was served as an appetizer, and the appetizer salad was delayed. Similarly, the cod entrée was significantly delayed and only served after we followed up. While the food was delicious and the free dessert compensation was appreciated, better timing in serving our courses would have made the meal wonderful. All in all though, no complaints. Clean hotel, great location and open skies!

My wife and I wanted to see more of Iceland than just through Reykjavik so we booked via Hilton Website and used points. This Hotel was centrally located nearer the sites and natural wonders of the South coast. We loved the rustic style, warm geothermal hot tubs, tasty food and great friendly staff. They even have a Northern Light wake up call system notifying you of the best time to experience the natural wonders of the Aurora Borialus.

The stargazing experience was something we will never forget. Absolutely mesmerizing. Do yourself a favor and book this hotel, don't think twice, you'll love yourself for it.

Exceptional food and service. Extremely well maintained property. Bedding could use an update in our suite but it wasn’t offensive. They could not have been more attentive or accommodating to our multi-generational party.
