We are just back from an excellent stay in this hotel. There were 5 of us in total and we traveled in from Ireland. Our experience of this hotel was excellent. The staff were very friendly and attentive and the food was excellent. The hotel is based in a very scenic spot and it is perfect for anyone that wants... More

The hotel choices in and around Skaftafell are few, but luckily there's Fosshotel. It's not elegant, certainly, but the staff is friendly, the food is good, and the facilities are comfortable. One big draw is a walking trail right behind the hotel that leads to a glacier. If you're looking for good, basic accommodations, this facility is a good choice.... More

We stayed 2 nights while exploring the national park. This was an excellent base. Basic room but comfortable beds and a good night's sleep. Staff very helpful and attentive. We booked online and got a great price and free wifi. However we could only use one device at a time. Excellent breakfast, lots of variety and well stocked. Dinner looked... More

We stayed here two nights while touring the national park and nearby Jökulsárlón. Great location for these places. The hotel was nice – we had a lovely corner room with great views. Wifi is NOT free, but I expected that. They do have a computer in the lobby you can use for quick internet checks (or longer if no one... More

It's so close to Glaciers, Lakes and the Sea that you almost forget that it's quite an ugly hotel on the outside. I didn't care at all as I was with my friends on a school trip. On the inside, the rooms are nice. If you're lucky, you can even see the Auroras in the night sky by just stepping... More

This hotel is seriously over priced. The only reason to stay there is the location. We booked a standard room yet got the superior since we arrived very late and they had given all the rooms in the main building to guests arriving earlier (we did notify the hotel about arriving late). So we got a superior room in a... More

We chose this hotel as an overnight stay on route to Reykjavík after our stay in Höfn, thinking it might make the exploration of the glacier a little easier- this was far from being the case. The hotel is very, very old -not in a nice way old- it is basically falling apart. It is far from everywhere and the... More

This hotel is really the only option in the area and as long as you understand what you are getting then you can use it as a base to explore the amazing scenic spots nearby. The hotel definitely needs a revamp, the rooms are very basic with old furniture and basic bathrooms. The price you pay is certianly not reflected... More

You are not exactly spoilt for choice in the Skaftafell area so you probably need to stay here if you want to overnight. We stayed in the main building in the older rooms. They are very basic and the furnishings are really tired and outdated. Had 2 single beds. However we did sleep well and very comfortably given that there... More
