If you are looking for the 5 star luxury of an all inclusive resort hotel, look elsewhere - this is not Iceland. Reykjavik has the best choice of accommodation but what you will find throughout the island are comfortable, unfussy hotels, country guesthouses, hostels and campsites, with friendly and helpful staff. Driving on Iceland's traffic-free roads is safe and infinitely more pleasurable than in many holiday destinations.
Most main roads are hard-surfaced but greater care is needed for driving on gravel. Iceland is safe and largely crime-free. The hazards, if any, are natural, such as hot springs, waterfalls and glaciers. And, contrary to popular myth, Iceland's midges rarely bite!
