Average accommodation close to blue lagoon
Close to Blue lagoon however the Power plant close by spoils the atmosphere. The staff are super friendly and the inn has a Nice lounge area. Beds are confortable and the rooms are comparatively large. Parts of the inn need a refirbishment. The name “Northern light inn” can be deceiving as I don’t think it would be easy to see the lights considering the light pollution around the inn.

This place is great. We stayed just one night for a stopover in Iceland on our way back from Spain. Staff was friendly, room was clean and comfortable. The food in the restaurant is great, and the 24-hour honesty bar is a nice touch. The free shuttle to and from the blue lagoon is very useful. Would recommend.
