The room accommodations were excellent with spacious bathroom and quality furnishings. Breakfast buffet was full options ranging from cereals, yogurts or European and American hot options.

10/10 Exceptional

This is a great, clean hotel in a convenient location. It's nice that it has a restaurant, and the included breakfast is lovely. Walking to Skogafoss was a bonus, and it was wonderful hearing the roaring waterfall from the hotel. Would stay here again.

Stay at Hotel Skógafoss

Quaint cosy hotel conveniently located next to falls. Smallish room. Limited Dinner options in village but food at restaurant was well done. Breakfast was acceptable.

Great location, good for a short stay

Good location, great view from the window of the waterfall. Rooms quite small , but we knew that before we went, so it was perfect for 1 or 2 nights. Bit disappointed as the hotel had said they would provide a birthday treat for my sister, but they actually charged us for it.
Helen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel exceeded my expectations. It’s right by the Skogafoss waterfall - like a 1 minute walk. We had two rooms for two nights. One room was very large. Both rooms had high ceilings. The restaurant was good for dinner.
Jeffrey, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Room was updated and modern and kept very clean. Breakfast was nice and very easy to get with plenty of seating available. Staff was friendly. The hotel was in good shape however the additional cottages on the property looked in rough shape on the outside and were in desperate need of some yard maintenance. One or two people with a weed trimmer and some paint could make a big improvement in 1 weekend.

Skogafoss Rules

Excellent day tripper hotel - we stayed for two days. It was clean and organized. The free coffee was nice but gave small servings. I was able to watch Netflix, youtube and prime video, which kept rainy nitghts busy. the skogafoss waterfall was right there and a great base for mor exploring in that area. Perfectualy situated, unimaginable views , great place to rest, have dinner and take in the sights from your chair .
Jessica, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent location in front of amd with vievs to Skogafoss waterfall and the underrated Kvernufoss just besides. The hotel is not the newest, the bathroom in the room needs a refurbishement, the humidity left its traces. Overall good value, 3 stars rating is appropriate
Stefan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Location location location! Great breakfast included. The dinner was a bit hit and miss. My lasagne was cold in the middle. Just enjoy being a 2 minute walk from skogafoss waterfall and don't expect too much from the dinner menu and you'll enjoy your stay. We did :)
brandon, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Rooms are tiny and cramped, and bath poorly designed. Room floor was carpet, which added a yeck factor. Breakfast was ok, but i would eat at the museum next time. No way to get air into the cramped room except to open a window, which sacrificed privacy and security since all rooms are ground level.
