The Bubbles were one of my favorite parts of our Iceland trip! We only stayed for 1 night but regretted not staying longer. Highly recommend, this is an experience not just a place to stay and the staff was amazing We will definitely be back!

Excellent night to visit. Sky was clear. Laying in bed watching the stars. Great experience. Saw a shooting star and an excellent display of the northern lights. Absolutely gorgeous

Love!
Special! Amazing! It was just as described! Be prepared to walk up a distance on the beautiful path. I would plan to pack a small bag with personal items if traveling with suitcases. The showers and restroom area (shared) were so clean and pleasant.

This property was so unique and special! I stayed here with my 15 year old and it was so quiet, peaceful and different from the other hotels we stayed at during our visit to Iceland. The bed was very comfortable and the bubble so cool. We even had less than ideal weather with rain and fog but it was absolutely worth it. We brought our own food and drinks.

Just stay here already!....
Such a unique and amazing experience... our bubble was cozy and felt like we were the only people in the world!
The women that checked us in was super funny and nice... and as a side note. . I booked thru hotels.com but accidentally booked for the wrong date (off by one day)... since it was 3rd party vendor i was told theres nothing that can be done ...
After contacting resort... they totally switched my date and accommodated my mistake.... i still cant thank them enough!!!

It is very unique experience. Out in the woods, isolated from the other units. However, the facility is relatively close to town so it is convenient to acquire supplies as needed.

We had a wonderful experience at the Bubble Hotel. Camilla and Andres were so welcoming and accommodating. Unfortunately we had bad weather and didn’t see the Northern Lights, but nonetheless the experience was so peaceful and nice. Camilla provided us with cups and things we needed for a picnic we packed, and made sure we were comfortable in our bubble. The common facilities were clean and warm. We definitely want to come back!

The overall experience was definitely a must do when in Iceland. I highly recommend no more than a 1 night stay. It was a bit of a troop to get to our bubble in the winter experience. The bubble was warm with heated blankets and everything was clean upon our arrival. The only downside is they need to maintain the stairs and passage way cleaned so the walk to and from the room is easier and safe at night.

Bubbles were not as private as I would expect. There are 60 steps up to the bubbles and I saw an older couple struggling to get to their bubble. That should be disclosed for disabled people. There was a limited view out of our bubble due to tree branches. Fun for a night but probably would not do again.

Disappointed
We were so excited for our trip to Iceland and the bubble hotel-we booked all of our hotels the same exact way, through hotels.com we had 6 hotels booked. Unfortunately, my husband got Covid and we couldn’t A. Because my husband had symptoms that would make it uncomfortable for him to fly and B.we followed the CDC guidelines which instructs us not to fly if positive. We were sad to have to cancel our trip. The only two hotels that wouldn’t give us a full refund were The Bubble hotel and Hotel Kria. When we rebook we won’t be visiting those two hotels. I also feel hotels.com could have helped in this situation.

It was a very cool experience. Feels like being outside without the bugs and the cold.The bubble has no locks, it is just a couple of zippers so you can't leave anything there over the course of the day. Also, the zippers were stuck upon arrival and it was a little sketchy trying to force them open without feeling like I was going to break something. I was happy with the experience overall.

Amazing stay with the northern nights!
We had a fantastic night in the bubble hotel as we were lucky enough to withness the northern lights!!!! The bubble is very romantic and was a perfect end to an amazing holiday. Very secluded and only way other guest would see in is if they purposesly walked up our path.
The shower facilities are down at the bottom hill where you park your car. But they have 2 toilets a few minutes walk from the bubble. Make sure you take a light with you.
Pack a little bag to take the bubble for the night as once youre in the room you wont want to leave. We took a picnic. The beds are heated which was nice. But outside the bed it can be a bit cold.
It is very peaceful and on a good night can see the stars. You can check in early if you resuest it.
