Selfoss is awesome. Right in the center of the Golden Circle, I loved the restaurants we went to. Food is expensive in Selfoss and all of Iceland, especially if you want vegetables, but we knew that going in. It evens out with the flights and the wonderful bed and breakfasts we stayed in. Do yourself a favor and bring food from home in your carry on, granola bars, and snacks, eat the breakfast provided, granola bars for lunch and then go out for dinner only. The food can be great, but for we say, "ICeland, the home of the 40 dollar cheesburger" If you want to drink, it is the home of the 20 dollar beer. Other than that, I believe Selfoss is one of the most perfect places on this planet. No joke.
There isn't much to see or do in Selfoss, but there are a couple late-night grocery stores, which make it a good place to stop for the night if you're driving around the Golden Circle or exploring the south coast. We were just passing through, but a lot of tourists were using it as a base to explore the area.
Selfoss is centrally-located and a good stopover in your tour of the wonders of SW Iceland. There are many natural wonders nearby as well as modern conveniences in this small town (pop. 6,500), including restaurants, grocery stores, and a hospital.
Cute little town. We had dinner at 2 nice restaurants. The one by the bridge looks plain from the outside but is very nice inside. It was our most expensive dinner in Iceland however...good food but very pricy. The other night in Selfoss we ate at a yellow restaurant which was run by a very kind gentleman and had more reasonable prices. Pizza and seafood on the menu. Selfoss is a good central location for many stops.
The town itself is nothing special. But the location makes for a superb base to explore the southern region of Iceland as well as the Golden Circle. In Selfoss you will find supermarkets, gas stations and restaurants to make your trip much easier.
Great location for touring the southern coast of Iceland. We drove to Vik from here and back to the airport a few days later. The town is lovely and hs some great cafes and restaurants! We went to Kaffi Krús twice for dinner and a third time for take away cakes to eat back in our accommodation - the cakes are that good!

“It was central and close to grocery store, restaurants. It was very spacious and clean.”
“Nice that we had our own space and bathroom facilities. Lovely quiet room to read and relax, fabulous breakfast. We had some trouble with our next stop and they were extremely helpful in assisting us in cancelling the reservation and making alternate accommodation.”
“There was a washing machine and the cabin was cozy! It was in walking distance to grocery stores and fine restaurant. The owner was lovely and it was very pleasant!”
“Really nice spot with great facilities and a spa pool! Great value for money, can cook dinner / breakfast etc. with no hassles. Highly recommend.”
