Beautiful Location-beat advice is to gas up before arriving here! Or it is 35-40 km one way and 50 km the other! We discovered this the hard way!

Staff was very nice and helpful. Breakfast was great, we had great views of both the sea and the glacier. It it is very secluded so we decided to dine there and the food was amazing the lamp is from the Farm and the tomato soup was delicious I think is one of the best meals we had in our stay in Iceland

We stayed for one night as part of our South Iceland road trip. Comfortable and clean rooms, good beds and even Netflix provided on the in-room television. We enjoyed really great food cooked in-house (both dinner and breakfast) which was delicious and authentically local. Staff were friendly, location was ideal. Access to the rooms was easy, being able to park right next to the door (useful when carrying bags in the snow).StephanieAustralia - 10Scored 10
There are many hiking trails and the staff at the visitors...
There are many hiking trails and the staff at the visitors center was very helpful. We choose a 3 hours hike - to the waterfalls and a viewpoint of the glacier. It was so beautiful! it took us closer to 4 hours but this included a long stop at the view point. You don't see that many bushes and greenery in other places in Iceland - so it was also very unique. On the way back we saw some beautiful birds that stayed with us for a little white before they disappeared into the bushes. Be aware of the steep climbing that is required. However, all paths are well maintained and marked.AdvaIsrael

- 8.7Scored 8.7ExcellentRated excellent· 287 reviewsEverything about this guesthouse is great! The owner was icelandic and very friendly. She even let our friend to use the showers for free and sleep in her camper van on the property! The guesthouse is well equipped (2 shared bathrooms/restrooms!) and the breakfast was yummy, with homemade products. The bedroom was roomy, with comfy beds. Everything was clean and functionnal. The location is pretty quiet and the view is nice over the fields. You can see the ocean in the distance.jvi74500France

Everyone who works there was extremely welcoming, especially the receptionist who told us the history of the family run farm and hotel and about the decorations at the establishment. The meals were incredible, using as many farm to table ingredients as possible, and the rooms were big and comfortable. This is a great hotel to stay at with a great location- we were able to see the northern lights at night during our winter stay. Couldn’t recommend enough!LLexiUnited States of America
- From $175.18 per night8.6Scored 8.6ExcellentRated excellent· 714 reviewsWe had a lovely stay at Skalafell! Owned and managed by a welcoming local family, we stayed in one of the units facing the sheep meadow and loved it. Breakfasts were very nice and we had delicious dinners on two nights. The best part is that the guesthouse is located at the trailhead of a loop trail that takes you up close to one of the glaciers at Vatnajokull National Park, which we hiked one morning for an unforgettable experience!

During our stay an orange alert was announced due to bad weather conditions.

Food was exceptional and fabulous... Thank you Ms Pirna for your support...
