Hotel Kría is conveniently located along the main road through Vík, with adjacent parking — though unfortunately at the far end of the building, requiring a full walk to the main entrance and small concierge area. The lobby is modest, with a bar to the left and a large dining space beyond. Close to shops and dining area ie 10 minutes walks across the roundabout. ||We stayed in ground floor room 121. The design was minimalistic to the point of feeling bare: textured wallpaper, laminated wood floors, and no decorations on the walls. The open clothes rack, glass bathroom door, and lack of sound insulation compromised privacy. Furnishings included a blue armchair, a grey desk chair, and a Nespresso machine — though oddly, no proper glasses for water, only bathroom tumblers better suited for toiletries.||The bathroom featured faux concrete and faux marble finishes. Functionally adequate, but acoustically exposed due to the sliding glass door.||On the plus side, the room was warm, quiet, and well-insulated. There’s a lovely view of the surrounding hills, and a private door opens to a wooden platform outside, which adds a nice touch of nature.||Some cuffs on the wall, chipped wood of table with wear and tear! |The bed was reasonably comfortable, though let down by practical oversights: no power socket by the bedside, only one pillow and cushion, and the room became uncomfortably hot overnight (opening the door would have helped). The back out curtains was not long enough so light came through at sides and bottom. ||Breakfast was a disappointment. The buffet offered poor coffee, a lacklustre cooked selection (dry sausage, mediocre eggs, average bacon), though the fruit was fresh and the cold cuts passable.||Checkout was fast and efficient, but overall, the stay didn’t live up to the price point. It’s a functional stopover hotel with beautiful surroundings, but limited charm or comfort for the cost.
