Hotel Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon

Hnappavellir, 785 Hnappavellir, Iceland –

Lock in a great price for Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon – rated 9 by recent guests!

to get started.

The hotel is amazing. The view during the day is stunning. The hotel breakfast is the best during all the hotels I stayed in during my trip in Iceland. It’s also at a good location that it’s pretty close to the glacier lagoon, diamond beach and Skaftafell national park.

Jialing, United States of America

The hotel was very modern and had an attractive appearance. Front desk and restaurant staff were nice.

Justine, United States of America

We only stayed 1 night while on our way to the Glacier Lagoon, but we wished we had a few more nights. This is a very nice, modern hotel located about 30 minutes from the Lagoon. Our room had a nice big comfortable bed that was warm and cozy. The bathroom was spacious and had lots of HOT water. The sauna was enjoyable but the biggest surprise was the quality of the food in the restaurant. My gf is vegan with gluten allergies and they were able to accommodate her with a delicious, filling meal. Well done!

Danny, United States of America

Just a great location close to several of the main tourist destinations on the south coast. Quality of the food in the restaurant for dinner and breakfast was excellent.

Randal, United States of America

Buffet breakfast was fantastic. Best quality breakfast we had on our trip (when staying in hotels). We really enjoyed relaxing in the lounge area after a long day of exploring and site seeing. It's a really cool hotel, the design is fantastic.

Christina, Ireland

Room was quiet with large window for viewing! Restaurant had outstanding dinners at @ $50 each!

Francis, United States of America

The beds were extremely comfortable and loved having the wool blankets to cozy up in. All in all, a welcome place to rest after a long day at the glacier! There was construction at the hotel so they offered free coffee/tea and cake in the lobby, which was delicious. We never actually heard any construction or found it disruptive. They also do an aurora wake up call, which was a nice perk!

Debbie, United States of America

Restaurant staff food and environment were amazing

Frederick, United States of America

Super friendly staff, amazing beds and huge bathroom. All was clean and beautifully decorated. The location is amazing and the staff can wake you up to see the aurora if you wish!

Julieta, United States of America

Tall ceiling and a little desktop fan is provided. 2 room cards were provided and best of it was the building has a lift to the 2nd floor. Breakfast buffet was good

The beds could have been comfier, and we were facing the back of the hotel. Hotel Slippers could have been provided, as the bathroom floor and sauna area was very slippery when wet.
Breakfast was fantastic, a huge selection including full cooked breakfast buffet. The sauna facility was an added bonus.
