Nice room and very close to Gullfoss and the Geyser region.
IsraelThis hotel is romantically situated in the beautiful mountains in close proximity to the Geysir and to the Gullfoss Falls. The staff is pleasant and attentive to all of your needs. They even wake you up when the Aurora appears; which it did for us. It was such an amazing experience; one which we always talked about seeing. The restaurant is very clean and the food was presented and tasted like it was from a NYC 5 star restaurant. I recommend Hotel Gullfoss for anyone who want to visit the Geysir, Gullfoss Falls and the Kerid Krater. Fantastic hotel.
United States of AmericaThe staff were friendly and helpful. The restaurant served delicious food. The staff knocked on our door to see the Northern Lights. It was really pretty. The hotel was in between Gullfoss and Geysir. Our family enjoyed our stay there.
United States of AmericaComfortable room, simple and warm which was very much appreciated after a windy winter day exploring the area. Gullfoss Falls located within a 5 minute drive from the hotel. We enjoyed a delicious dinner of Icelandic salmon and Icelandic haddock. Expansive windows in the dining room, presumably for viewing the northern lights which unfortunately did not appear the night we stayed at the hotel. Very nice buffet breakfast!
