Black Sand Hotel | Hotel in Sveitarfelagid Olfus, Southern Region

“The room was clean, quiet. It was a perfect place to have a relaxing weekend.”

“Somewhat remote and quiet location. This will be a very nice hotel once construction of the amenities are complete and some of the issues are fixed. The temp control in our room did not work so our room was very hot, especially after showering since the bathroom fan did not work, the room felt like a sauna. Other guests reported the same thing.”

“Our experience at the Black Sand Hotel was top-notch. The rooms, the location, and the staff were all a wonderful experience.”

“Gorgeous brand new hotel! Stunning views of the beach from our room and from the dining area. Free breakfast was really good and had plenty of options. We felt fancy here!”

“The room was fine. They’re doing construction, so outside was torn up a bit. Dinner was very good and very expensive, The wait staff seemed a bit untrained and not very helpful.”

“The property was not completed after arrival. The suite we stayed in was missing crucial elements, trim on the black out blinds (which defeats the purpose especially in summer). The hvac was not finished open vents in the ceiling and non operational on arrival. The power went out in all black hall ways and it was lacking the “luxury” feel. The room did not match the photos as they were all renderings. For the price paid I expect a finished room, accurate photos and knowing what I am purchasing. The room was large and the view of the parking lot was less than desirable. Though, parking was free.”

“A wonderful new property! The staff are welcoming and ready to assist in any way possible. The rooms are minimalistic with comfortable beds. The bath products supplied are top notch. We very much enjoyed the breakfast buffet with healthy alternatives even a munuka honey for the overnight oats. Dinner is also lovely although a bit expensive , with a casual atmosphere.”

“New hotel, cleanliness was good and breakfast excellent. Great view towards the sea. Complimentary parking. However, still construction going on so no spa and some facilities are not functioning such as the TV in the room. It will probably be even greater in a years time.”

“The night staff was excellent. The hotel is very new and all electronic based. Several items in our room didn’t work as expected and the young man worked with us to resolve the issues. Very friendly and helpful.”

“The review gets a 3/5 because the hotel is NOT READY FOR GUESTS. It will be a beautiful hotel - SOMEDAY. There are no amenities, our room was missing furniture, TV’s weren’t connected, mattresses had no covering, the door to our room was unfinished - you could see right into our room from the hallway, stairs were not done so lift only - there are countless other unfinished items I could list. Minimally staffed, but the ones there were very accommodating. Dinner was good, however the food came out cold.”
