So beautiful and Skogafoss was literally in the backyard! Had no idea so it was truly an awesome surprise. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Breakfast buffet was great, and the restaurant was delicious. The lamb burger was one of the best I’ve had. Highly recommend!
We stayed as a family of four (kids 5 & 10) and loved every moment. The location is unbeatable — right next to Skógafoss waterfall, visible from our room! Comfortable, clean, and family‑friendly. Breakfast was fresh, delicious, and had great variety. Perfect base for exploring the Golden Circle and South Coast. Highly recommend!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The views are amazing!! There’s a breathtaking waterfall that you can hike to the top.
The rooms is very minimalist.
Great location right by the base of the waterfall. The only thing we didn’t like was that water gets everywhere when you take a shower and the floor is very slippery. Restaurant service is excellent! Easy check in by email was great. We loved having the code to our room before we even arrived
Small room. Staff were not present when checking in and pretty indifferent once they checked us in. The property isn't new and seems a little outdated. The room was clean. Breakfast was not good in comparison to other locations where we stayed traveling the Ring Road. The attraction here is the Skogafoss waterfall which you can see out the windows facing it. it is definitely convenient if staying here to climb/hike around this area.
Very clean and cute hotel. Small rooms, but that is to be expected in the location. Right next to the falls and the restaurant has an excellent post-hike cheeseburger
I gave this just “okay” because even though it is a lovely hotel with great staff and service, for $500 plus at night I think it should have a hot tub. Just saying.
