The most expensive month is December (around 160 € a night), and the cheapest is October (around 145 €: 9 % less). Months with no bar have no rate loaded yet: the hotel may not have opened sales or released availability for those dates.

Real prices per night, taxes included, for 2 people, on weekdays (four dates per month; months with no free dates were swept day by day). As many dates require a minimum of 2 nights, both 1-night and 2-night stays were checked and the total is shown divided by the nights. This is the rate with free cancellation; breakfast is not included.Updated 05/10/2026.

A month marked «·» means that, on the weekdays we checked, no night was available for two or there was no rate yet: the property is small and fills up. It doesn't mean it's closed; check your dates anyway.

June and July are the Icelandic summer: almost 21 hours of daylight and the driest months. From November to March the days are short, it snows and it's northern lights season, best seen away from the city lights.
