Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon

Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon

10/10 Excellent
"Hotel is clean, chic, and staff are kind. The woman at the front desk was extremely helpful, offering us a kettle for our room and wishing us a happy anniversary- we even found a complimentary dessert and card in our room. The hot tub has a great view and sauna was clean as well. The room itself was very spacious and modern. The breakfast had a lot of variety especially for someone gluten free. We would stay here again."
