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 view from the front of the hotel was nice. Liked having free coffee set up

Danielle, United States of America

Great location, nice sunset, excellent food, sauna a nice touch after a hike.

Joy, United States of America

It’s a beautiful hotel near Vatnajokull National Park. But it’s not near any town. The staff (all international) were very friendly and efficient. The restaurant is excellent. We splurged for the Oraefi menu - five courses with wine pairings. Everything was excellent and the wines were also very nice. It ended up being about $100 each, but that really wasn’t much more than getting either one of the other menus and a bottle of wine so it was really good value for a very special meal. I highly recommend this hotel (and Iceland). Oh, and dinner was very leisurely- the service was very good but we weren’t rushed at all.

Kelly, United States of America

Great location! Right in between Skaftafell and glacier lagoon!

Shannon, United States of America

This place is AMAZING. Brand new, chic hotel, with heated bathroom floors, awesome all natural bath products, beautiful restaurant, excellent breakfast included, waterfall onsite, incredible view, what’s not to love??

Brianna, United States of America

Black out curtains were great!! Perfect location for excursions!

Tia, United States of America

Great location while exploring the National park both north and south of this location.

Kristin, United States of America

The rooms were very clean, modern heated bathroom floors. The staff was very attentive and the breakfast was delicious.

Katherine, United States of America

A new warm modern oasis in the barren landscape and a timely rest stop on the ring road. Given how expensive accomodation and food generally goes for in Iceland, this place represents outstanding value for both accomodation and food. My wife and I were blown away by the quality and quantity of the mains dishes. The Bass and King Crab dish and Salmon dishes we had were the culinary highlight for us in Iceland. Post pictures soon. Breakfast overlooks a picturesque village on the foothills of snow capped mountains reminiscent of the Swiss alps.

Kyung, Australia

It was a luxury retreat in the middle of nowhere. It was clean and very well designed.

This is a luxury hotel near the glacier lagoons and national park. We have stayed here before and it remains very good. I love the bay window seats next to the radiator on a cold day, great for reading. Really good breakfast. They’re building on site and it’s hardly noticeable once you are inside. Plus hotel is offering free coffee and cake in reception to make up for inconvenience.

Price is a bit too much - room was nice but very clean, lot’s of door slamming in early morning with people checking out- overrun by Chinese tourists!
The hotel is grossly overpriced, but you have to remember where you are- very isolated location- 30 minutes drive to Glacier Lagoon! Staff were very professional and happy to greet you- breakfast was ok- only had fried eggs as a choice- but mini sausages were very good. Nice view next to window

Everything was wonderful! It was clean, comfortable and a great location. The food in the restaurant was incredible, both breakfast and dinner! Our only complaint was that the shower wall only covered half of the stall and it was impossible to keep the bathroom floor dry while showering. Plus, the tiles tended to get slippery when wet. Otherwise, this was a great place to stay!
