Room not the largest we have had but adequate with comfy beds and hot drinks available. Breakfast okay. Handy to be able to leave car parked for free whilst we walked around the waterfalls on our departure day.

Wonderful hotel at the base of the waterfall. Great amenities and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again. The breakfast was superb. I have been craving bacon and eggs and I finally got it. Thank you for being such wonderful hosts!!
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Awesome location with Skógafoss Waterfall directly behind the hotel. Our room was located on the back side of the property so we had a view of the waterfall from our room. We enjoyed the hotel bistro. We only had an appetizer and dessert but both were very tasty. The breakfast included had a decent selection and we appreciated the coffee/tea station in the hall close to our room. My only complaints would be the walls must be pretty thin because there did seem to be more noise than some other hotels we stayed at. Also, we did not use the shower because there was a strong Sulfur smell due to the Geothermal hot water. I’m not sure I would stay more than one night but it is perfectly fine if you are exploring the coast and need somewhere to stay for a night.
