We had a fantastic stay! The hotel offers great value for money, and the staff truly go out of their way to make you feel welcome. My favourite part was the breakfast — served in a beautiful, cozy space, with plenty of delicious and varied options. Another highlight is the location: the hotel is just a short walk from the stunning Skógafoss waterfall. We loved it so much that we visited twice — once in the evening when we arrived, and again the next morning before continuing our journey. Highly recommended for anyone exploring the south of Iceland!

This hotel has self check in and check out which we appreciated. It is very close to Skogafoss waterfall. The room was very clean and we were able to capture a photo of the northern lights from outside our room so this seems to be a good location.

Just a place to stay and convenient to Skógafoss and the Fimm Trail. Clean, comfy beds and pillows. Great view of falls and aurora from windows. Breakfast was acceptable, simple breakfast food and limited offerings. Coffee was available 24/7. Outside needs some cleaning up but we were pleasantly surprised how nice the inside was. I’d stay here again. Can walk to the falls and the restaurant.

Room was clean. Had only 1 pillow each. Weird tick tick knocking sound which continues off and on all the time.couldnt tell where it was coming from. Loud enough when trying to sleep to annoy some. Terrible smelling sulpher water. Nice coffee machine and a good included breakfast. Near falls and a restaurant.

Reason for a short stay, good breakfast and coffee machine. Water is heavy with sulphur, very strong scent...lingers in your hair after you shower.

The hotel is self check-in, so it’s very convenient if you dont have a set schedule. There really isn’t much service but I think there is a reception just down the street at a different hotel. I gave it 5 stars for the location, as it is only a short walk away from Skógafoss, kvernufoss and the Skógar museum, so you save parking fees if you plan to go to these places. Facilities are great provided it’s in a rural area, and the hot tub is a nice bonus.
