We stayed in this Hotel for one night in late April. The Hotel is located in a plain field near the ring road No 1 some klm after Hella.. All the rooms have a beautiful view on a river. Now this hotel claims to be 4 stars, but I don’t think that it deserves it. The quality of the construction is rather basic (you can hear everything from next rooms or the hallway), the decoration and especially the furniture (in the rooms, restaurant and bar) mediocre, the bed mattresses bad. The owner tries hard to improve the image and create a relaxing atmosphere, with nice fresh flowers, candles, amenities like bath robe, magazines etc. But if you have stayed in Budir Hotel before you have the experience of authentic elegant decoration with original character, style and class. We had also dinner in Ranga and we found the food to be pretentious and overpriced. The breakfast was ok The usual stuff but no eggs, nor salmon No complaint about the stuff which was always very helpful and friendly. Overall I prefer the 2 or 3 stars in the region that offer more basic but good value services and save the money (we stayed at hotel Laki as well at half the price, excellent stay) or spend the Money for staying in Budir.
