This was an amazing place to stay! It had everything to be comfortable and enjoy the surrounding area. They put a lot of care into the place and it really shows. I loved the book they made to explain how it all works. They thought of everything! Next time I’ll stay longer, it was great!

    stunning, make sure you walk all the way down the trail, there are two other gorgeous waterfalls that a lot of people missed by not going all the way to end end of the trail (which is only a few hundred meters long).

    This is an amazing place to hike and see some glorious views...

    This is an amazing place to hike and see some glorious views - especially on a clear day - which can be a bit tricky. We were extremely fortunate to have some of the the sunniest days recorded. Could not ask for a more comfortable hike. There are glacier hikes that you can pay for but honestly parking at the Park and hiking up yourself is something you will not soon forget. Not too laborious, but you defintely feel like you are exercising. Loved every minute of this hike and I wish I could have stayed longer.

    Sadly we only had a day in Skaftafell and I wish we had more time to explore the national park. What we did see was stunning. Nature, hikes, glaciers and ocean all within a stones throw of each other. Well worth a longer visit than just to pass through.

    We liked the hotel's location, which allowed us to walk to the Svinafellsjokull (a finger of the huge Vatnajokull glacier) via a trail system right behind the hotel and was close to where we needed to report for our glacier walk the next morning. Our room was comfortable on the whole. We appreciated that the restaurant had a couple of vegan/vegetarian options. The breakfast buffet was very good. The staff were helpful.

    Standard European breakfast was nice. Dinner at the restaurant did not meet expectations after reading other reviews. Beds were unbelievably hard and seemed small for twins. We had the misfortune of having some sort of really loud generator (?) going all night, which we heard because we kept our window open since the room was so warm. We stayed in many hotels around Ring Road and I felt this was the least impressive.

    Short review: excellent breakfast, unbelievable location, fairly basic rooms, excellent shower and pressure, nice bar, ample parking, and behind the hotel at 1 km is the most amazing glacier that you can walk to from the hotel on a pre-cut path. The service station is just across the road, and there is no alternative place to eat there. Food in a restaurant is fairly expensive, but really good.

    This place has such a friendly staff and who could engage in conversation the area. We enjoyed a delicious dinner and breakfast buffet before we left. There’s an awesome hike behind the hotel that is worth the hour walk. Near Svartifoss (waterfall)
