We spent our first night in Iceland at the Buubble Hotel and even though it was summer with no northern lights it was fun. The bubbles are well tucked into the trees so it felt private and we had eye shades (and we were exhausted) so sleeping was no problem. The heated mattress pads probably helped too! There is a walk up from the parking and the service house but there are also 2 nice bathrooms at the top near the bubbles.

Gorgeous & Unique!

Loved this very unique stay! It was cozy and wonderful to wake up to seeing the trees overhead. It's a bit of steep walk from the car so just be prepared for that!

A very unique experience in a secluded part of Iceland. The bubble was private, warm, and gave great views. The property was clean, had all necessary facilities and had a warm ambience.

8/10 Very good

Very unique concept. Lots of climbing and stairs to get to your bubble. Leave most of your luggage behind in the car. A headboard to keep your pillows from falling off and nightstands would be helpful.

Staff was very friendly and welcoming when we checked in. Room is clean and separated so privacy is valued.

8/10 Very good

We really enjoyed the experience even though there wasn’t an aurora the night we stayed. We slept great and It was wonderful to wake up in the morning and see the forest around us. We were greeted by staff at the service house and shown the facilities which were clean and inviting then escorted to our buubble. The hike up the hill was a little strenuous but not bad, just enough to make you think twice about going back down the hill unless it was necessary. There was a clean restroom facility at the top of the hill which was extremely convenient. The buubble was heated and had individual mattress heaters, warm enough that we actually got hot during the night.

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

Worst “Hotel” Experience Ever – Stay Away!

I was in other bubble hotels, but this one is the worst one ever! I honestly cannot understand how this place is even open for business. Calling it a “hotel” is a joke! -Filthy conditions: The bubble I stayed in was dirty from the start, with stains and dust everywhere. There were tears mended with glue or something. Clearly no proper cleaning is done between guests. Also cold - both electric mattresses didn’t work! - Shocking lack of facilities: Imagine 20+ guests with only 2 toilets to share — no hygiene, no comfort, just endless queues. Totally unacceptable. -False advertising: The pictures make it look like a magical experience, but in reality it felt more like a cheap camping ground that hasn’t been maintained in years. -Zero value for money: For the high price they charge, you expect at least basic cleanliness and functioning amenities. Instead, you get frustration and disgust. If you value your time, money, or health — do yourself a favor and avoid this place at all costs! I wish someone had warned me before booking!

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.

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!!!

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.

We had a great time staying in the bubbles. It was a clear night and we had a great view of the stars directly overhead.

This accommodation was lovely experience to be closer to nature! It was definitely beautiful. I think it would have been cooler if we had more views or landscape to look out into. Otherwise, the bathrooms and room itself were very clean. The shared amenities were lovely and to use and clean as well! Definitely a cool experience. We also drove to Selfoss food hall and had some good food and ice cream that evening. :)
