Therefore it is perfect for day trips because of many different possibilities of entertainment.
Hotel Geysir was reopend in 2019 and the new building connects the existing services in the area and is designed with the aim to reflect nature through the choice of materials blending into the nearest surroundings. The hotel features conference rooms, restaurant and unique Geysir spa inspired by nature and the surrounding elements.
Emphasis was placed on the building being modest in its surroundings and reflected in its form and landscape design, but the structure is shaped so as to obscure the area's natural wonders. The building is three floors, as well as a basement and is divided into three parts that serve different purposes. The hotel has 77 rooms with 6 suites. All rooms have beautiful views of the countryside. Some of the rooms have large windows that guests can sit in, while other rooms are bright with large opening windows and balconies. The rooms come with a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a coffee machine, and each room has a private bathroom with a shower and a hair dryer and some rooms have bathtub.
The hotel's main lobby and reception are on the 2nd floor with a double ceiling. The windows are large and tall and frame a magnificent view of Geysir and the hot spring area. Dining rooms are located on the 1st and 2nd floor of the building and surround the exterior walls of the old sports school, which now has a new role. It is possible to open the dining room into the hotel garden during good weather. From the 3rd floor there is access to a rooftop terrace where you can enjoy meals and views in all directions. The hotel has three conference rooms suitable for all sizes of conferences.
