Family hotels and homes in Húsafell

For us, this will remain the place and time where and when we saw the Northen Lights for the first time.. And what a spectacle it was! The hotel wake up alarm during the night and their alerts in the evening were paramount for this great experience. We were also lucky indeed to be there when a high intensity aurora took place. Many ingredients have to be combined :) Now, the hotel and staff. Staff is very nice. Thanks to Iulia at reception for helping us with advice and bookings. Also to Jakob in the restaurant for kindly explaining us the dishes. Hotel is well placed for many trips in the area and has an activity center on the premises. Also short or long hikes can be done. Being close to a glacier, apparently, chances for clear skies are higher. Rooms are large, same for bathrooms. Breakfast is good, food in restaurants is also very good and very expensive :)

Great location and facilities for a family group. We cooked a lovely meal and watched a movie together. Bedrooms were clean and comfortable. Highly recommended

This Fosshotel confirms—and even exceeds—the already high standards of the hotel chain. The rooms are beautiful, welcoming, and spacious. Outstanding breakfast.

We came in the middle of a snowstorm and were welcomed by Saemi in the most gentle way. He made some waffles with cream and rhubarb and we had a nice chat with him and the other guests. The place is an old farmhouse dating back to 1908 with a lot of terrific details. The tiny church opposite the house is a very special place, too. Our highlights were the delicious soup that Saemi made, the wonderful breakfast with the home baked bread and to jump into the hot tub at -7 degrees with snowy winds in the face…. A unique and perfect experience. Thank you Saemi!

Cottage is spacious, clean with full kitchen and washing machine . There are horses, sheep and dogs too. Was able to see northern light on one of the night from cottage which was great !
