About this property
Featuring a stargazing observatory on site, this luxury hotel is in an idyllic remote location next to the Rangá salmon river in Hella. The hotel offers wake-up calls for when the Northern Lights appear and turns off all lighting for the viewing experience. Guests can also enjoy outdoor hot tubs and free WiFi. Hotel Rangá offers individually decorated rooms with impressive views of the surroundings including Mount Hekla or the riverside. Guests can choose rooms with such items as a spa bath, balcony and flat-screen TV. At Rangá’s restaurant, views of the riverside and Eyjafjallajökull volcano can be admired while tasting local gourmet cuisine with Nordic nuances. Fresh organic produce is used. Staff will gladly help arrange activities in the area. Hella and Hvolsvöllur are both within 8 km of the hotel, while Selfoss is 45 km away. Reykjavik is 2-hours away by car.
Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.0 for a two-person trip.
