Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms felt very modern and clean. It’s a little secluded which was part of its charm. The hot tub and sauna areas were nice after a long day outside in the cold. Before leaving, we visited the property’s private waterfall and that was a treat too!"

Hotel Skaftafell

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel staff were very friendly. We stayed in a room in a separate area from the hotel. The room was smaller but nice. Very quiet and clean and had comfortable beds. Breakfast was good and filling."

Adventure Hotel Hof

8/10 Good

"Large room but it did smell of mildew. Shower is large but water went everywhere. Adjacent restaurant had an excellent dinner. Front desk staff was kind enough to put our name on the list and called when the table became available. Continental breakfast was good. Great location for access to the glacier."
