Horrible experience. Checked in. Asked if the spa was still available. The man at the desk said for another 90 min to two hours. Gave us spa robes and towels. We cam back down with robes and towels and asked for directions to the spa, then went to the spa. It was a mess. No staff available. Dirty bar glasses, towels, robes and swim suits everywhere. Disgusting. Steam room was cool w/o steam. Accidentally hit a button we thought was to start steam and several staff came and yelled at us including the man that gave spa attire. Filthy spa, rude employees.

The heating wouldn’t turn off in the room, the elevator did not work for the fourth floor (and not at all day 2). The staff wasn’t friendly. There was extreme loud noise all night until 1am, did not sleep at all.

We loved the food options all within walking distance. This hotel is in a great spot, clean, great staff, and comfortable. I will be staying at Hotel Selfoss everytime I come to Iceland. The breakfast has everything you need to get off on the right foot. Close to the golden circle and southern sights. This is the place for me.

This was my favorite hotel that we stayed in on out Icelnad ring road trip. So good that we started and finished here. The check in was great. The Hotel staff were polite and accommodating. The breakfast is killer here. The buffet alone for breakfast is worth staying. The rooms were clean and quiet. You are downtown Selfoss, so many food and drink option within walking distance. Ill be staying here again for certain.
