Basic room but great views & decent food
Really basic accommodation, not even a kettle. But views of Skógafoss waterfall, access to decent lively bar & restaurant. Decent breakfast included, again very isolated with no options to wander. Very expensive at £280 per night, but this is Iceland & hotels are in very short supply, especially at this time of year.

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.

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 .

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.

Absolutely one of the best places we stayed when we were in more remote Iceland. First of all, the hotel itself is newer and has a great dining room. The hotel is walking distance to the amazing Skogafoss Falls, which allowed us to have more independence from our group and go out and climb the falls before breakfast and do the trail.

Good place to stay for the South coast of Iceland
We stayed here one night as part of our 2 weeks Ring Rd. The location is so convenient- a few minutes walk to Skogafoss. The room was clean. However, the set up of the bathroom was strange. It was a big bathroom but lacking shelves. We had dinner at the onsite restaurant. It was decent. The stay also included a breakfast. It was fine. The staffs were very friendly.
