Hotel Glymur is one of the best hotels in Iceland, it certainly is one of the best we have ever stayed in and we have stayed in innumerable hotels. The service was impeccable.

We had villa Nature and we had all the amenities we needed. But for me the highlight was soaking in a hot tub, heated naturally from the volcanic lava passing beneath under the moonlit sky. The sensation was weird but exhilarating. Lying there in the hot bubbling bath, feeling the icy wind blowing on the surface of the bath, looking at the moon, shrouded by darkness and silence was a fitting end to a day spent sight seeing, walking over glaciers and hours driving from one scenic spot to another.

I could literally feel the stiffness leaving through my toes. The bubbling bath and the eerie noise made by the wind was sedating me. Alas it was time to go and sleep on a proper bed in the warmth of our villa. The next day beckoned and we had a whole new list of places to discover.
