Hotel Post

We stayed at this hotel for one night during our South Iceland road trip. The building is quite new and modern, and the overall atmosphere is minimal and clean. The room was big and the bathroom was updated with a good shower and heated floors, which was nice after a long day of driving.

The room was a bit small for my family of three. But the bathroom is very spacious. Room is also clean. Room does not have a kettle but there is a common pantry which was useful. The main issue was check in because the check in was not actually at hotel post itself but at the other hotel next door and instructions were not clearly given. We panicked a bit initially because we reached quite late and could not find a way to get into hotel post. Luckily we managed to call the hotel and was told that check in is in the other building.

Great location Great staff, very friendly. Clean and quiet. Great location

Fun place but check-in/communication needs work Hotel Post is a decent option in an area with limited choices. The hotel is housed in a charming older building and the room was very comfortable. The location is a bit secluded, but it was exactly what we needed after a long drive. Unfortunately, the check-in process was chaotic. I received an email with a code for a room but couldn't find the room in the hotel. After wandering around the outside of the hotel, I found a note on the window with the code to my room and a different room number than what I received in my email. After about 30 minutes of searching with our bags, I was quite annoyed. Once we got the right code and the correct room, everything was smooth, but this experience left a bad impression. It's a decent place to stay in the area, but they need to improve the check-in process and communication.

Maybe Check Out Another? The room we got was a bit odd...it's in the red building next to the main Hotel Blafell and on the first floor behind what used to be the front entrance. It didnt look very maintained and there is a common area upstairs with appliances for making your own meals and heating water for coffee or tea. Other than that convenience, I probably would have booked in the main hotel. The main hotel itself seemed cozy but the sauna that was also available for Hotel Post guests was not working or looked like it was derelict. Overall kinda was a confusing experience.
