Hotel Fosshótel Vatnajökull
Hornafjördur, 781 Höfn, Iceland – Great location - show map
Hotel was very quiet when we visited so we had a very personal service. Food was INSANE! Bar and restaurant area could have been cosier but our room was fabulous with big windows and great views.
United KingdomRoom was spacious and the bed was comfortable. The shower was good and the heated floor was a nice touch. There was a great selection at breakfast and the view from the property was sublime.
United KingdomLocated in the middle of nowhere, which was perfect for us. We stayed at a lot of places in Iceland, and this was the best of the lot.
AustraliaRoom was lovely. Staff excellent. The restaurant was very good. Both evening meals we had there were outstanding and surprisingly reasonable in price. Only 45 minutes drive to the Glacier lagoon and Diamond beach. 20 minutes drive to Vestrahorn/Stokeness which offers awesome photographic opportunities.
United KingdomWe booked to stay in a double room but got upgraded to a suite! It was absolutely beautiful with a gorgeous bath and shower, and they even put out some tasty treats for us too. The big windows were another lovely feature. Breakfast in the morning was tasty, and the coffee was really good!
United KingdomBeautiful rooms, comfy bed super quiet. Excellent friendly staff. Delicious food. Would definitely stay again!
United KingdomEVERYTHING was amazing!! From the moment we checked in, the staff were wonderful! Our rooms were very clean, comfortable and spacious. The heated tile floor was definitely a luxury after a cool day in the wind. The restaurant food was fantastic and worth the price! Our server Marky Mark made our experience with great conversation, and made superb cocktails! We were for sure sad to leave this accommodation and would 100% go back anytime and recommend it to anyone.
CanadaReally great place to stay, the view is fantastic. Delicious dinner
LatviaVery nice, friendly staff, wonderful view, great food and cosy athmosphere
PolandLocated on the plains just outside Hofn, the hotel has magnificent views of three glaciers that reach the plains. It is a lovely, modern, hotel, with attentive service from the staff. A great stay.
