Fosshotel Mývatn is a gem in North Iceland! This was my second time staying here, and once again, it exceeded expectations. The rooms are modern, cozy, and offer incredible views of Lake Mývatn. The staff was warm and helpful, and the on-site restaurant served some of the best meals I had on the trip. It's the perfect base for exploring the surrounding natural wonders, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone staying in the area!

Beautiful views from the hotel - a really wonderful location. Clean and modern room. Great food at the restaurant. Only complaint was that the bedding, particularly the bottom sheet, was uncomfortable and bobbly

We had a room with a view, along with wonderful experiences with the very helpful staff. One example was Kamil who offered useful suggestions for local travel and provided great insights into the food and local traditions.
