Nettes kleines Hotel, zu jeder Zeit konnte man sich Kaffe und Tee machen, kleine aber ausreichende Auswahl fürs Frühstück, Hot Tub und Sauna

Sauna war leider aus, Heizung hat Geräusche gemacht, dass wir die halbe Nacht nicht schlafen konnten, Zimmer und Badezimmer eher oldschool und nicht so hübsch, sehr kleines Zimmer

A clean bed and private bath in prime location makes the cost bearable!

Very convenient for main siteseeing locations in south Iceland. Very quite.

Mattress was hard. Having to use stairs to 2nd floor room. For cost of room size was smaller then thought, but it's listed for tourist trade and location.

Verdt en ivernatting

Herlig lite Hotel med 12 rom. Stille og rolig. Flott utsikt til Skógafoss og et jorde med mye sauer og lam.

A comfortable stay in a super location.

The location was amazing, so close to the Skogafoss waterfall. Our rooms were comfortable and well stocked with clean towels and a gown incase we wanted to use the hot tub. The beds were very comfortable. It’s a self check in hotel and the key code access worked smoothly for the outer door but only one of our rooms. We called Hotel Skogafoss (as instructed) and the staff answered the phone promptly and solved the problem easily. Complimentary hot drinks were available in the reception are which was a very welcome touch. Breakfast was a good selection and the staff helpful, cooking more eggs and bacon on request as guests arrived to eat. There was homemade bread. We ate a good dinner at the nearby Hotel Skogafoss.

From outside, the entrance seemed a bit ‘tired’ with some peeling paint and we weren’t sure quite what we would find inside but don’t be put off! Inside is welcoming, warm, clean and comfortable. A small point and not an issue for us - there is no lunch/dinner available at the hotel, but the Hotel Skogafoss is only a 5 minute walk away.

Our 2-night stay here worked well with our (limited) budget and our itinerary.

Breakfast was delicious, with plenty of food of varying types. The location was spectacular, right by the waterfall. It was great having the coffee machine available 24/7. The hot and cold water were certainly HOT and COLD!!

The room was very tiny. There was no place to put our suitcases. While there wasn't room for another chair, it would have been nice if we both could have sat down somewhere in the room.

Perfect hotel, perfect location. Tea/coffee available the whole day. Large choice at breakfast.

Too expensive compared to other accomodation in Iceland.

Exceptional

Excellent location at the end of the Fimmvorduhals hike, 5 minutes walk from the famous Skógafoss waterfall. Check-In was perfect - it is actually a self-check-in and self-check-out. We got a code for the room by email and that's it. We haven't met anyone from the staff (only at breakfast). Breakfast was perfect - all the usual popular food, whatever one needs.

The rooms are a bit tiny, but it is ok for travelers. If anyone wants a resort, that is not the place. The bathroom smell was a bit funky - It can be better aired/vented.

I don’t recommend to stay here.

We specifically choose this hotel for the sauna and bubble bath. It was on the listing during our booking. Just before our stay they took the sauna off the listing without notice. They have not offered a compensation. The bubble bath was very dirty. Heavy sewage smell in the bathrooms and fungus on the ceiling.

Nice and helpful staff, good breakfast.

Self-check in easy and straightforward. Staff were very nice and super apologetic about our first room being dirty (see below). The bed in our second room we were given was very comfortable. Breakfast in the morning was delicious and had a really big variety of foods to eat, staff were on top of replenishing food that had run out. Location was great, a 2min drive from Skogafoss.

We did have issues with our first room - the self-check in instructions lead me to a room that had not been cleaned, with towels/bedding strewn all over the room. The hotel is run under Hotel Skogafoss, so we did have to drive to their hotel to explain the situation to them and ask for a new room - however, the staff was very apologetic about this mess up, and the manager Octavian drove over with us right away to check out the situation and assign us a new room, which was bigger and more spacious than our original room. The shower water did smell a little bit like sulfur, so we did have to open the doors in our room to let the smell air out a bit.

Great location but not value for money.

The location next to Skogarfoss waterfall was incredible. Easy check in process.

Shower facilities were terrible: shower head wouldn't stay up right and water was cold. Sink: Only produced hot water and had a pungent smell. Door to bathroom had a crack in it as though someone had punched it. No staff around at any point during our stay. Decor extremely dated. Coffee machine in lobby permanently on "cleaning" so couldn't make a drink. We were under the impression the hotel had its own restaurant, but this actually seemed to be part of another hotel a few minutes walk away. Expensive in comparison to all other hotels we stayed in during our trip (total of five) and by far the one we liked the least. Would not return.

We really liked the hotel!

Ease of self-check in; comfy beds, sheets, blankets; the robes; very clean; beautiful views; near a restaurant; coffee/hot chocolate/tea availability.

Temperature of hot water was just warm and we were really excited for a hot shower, so that was disappointing; no soap or shampoo for shower; no instructions for adjusting heat in the room. Coffee machine was broken in the morning. Need a backup solution for coffee!

Great experience in Skógar

Very well welcomed ! Breakfast is with the large choice and very good. The Hot Tube (Jacuzzi without bubbles) is clearly a plus, especially after walking all the day. Staff is very nice and attentive to our needs.
