The room was comfortable and cozy. The lobby has a coffee/tea station with biscuits and fruit available almost 24/7, which was a nice touch. The breakfast is really good. There are two hot tubs open until 10 pm, perfect for relaxing. The hotel itself feels very warm and welcoming, and since it’s located in a darker area, we were even lucky enough to catch some northern lights right from there!

Very friendly hotel staff. The reception was extraordinary. Wake up call for northern lights. The hotel location is a little remote and surrounding just vast land. This is the best for Aurora watching with surrounding area in total darkness. It is a very plus point in my opinion. If you are self driving, it is not a problem for this remoteness.

Excelent services, very nice rooms in the new part of the hotel, very clean and comfortable rooms large enough for several days stay. There was a nice outside swimming pool with two hot baths nearby. The staff was very heplful and pleasant. The breakfast was rich and good. There was a small problem with suplying of the breakfast on our first day around 9 am. Probably we came just after some large group had left and there was a lot of old dishes on the tables, almost no new food, no clean dishes and also no sfaff for a few minutes. But it was sorted soon and everything went perfectly then. We liked the place near the hot springs and also quite close to the main road. Despite of that the place was quiet even during the nights.

Location was lovely, slightly in the outskirts providing full glory to northern lights than polluted by typical city lights. Room was spacious and comfortable. Staff (a young lady manning the booth during evening) was also great as she notified us of the most beautiful Aurora we've witnessed during our trip, which without her call, we would never have caught it. Last, breakfast was fantastic, typical Icelandic breakfast spread and more (DIY waffles). We'd gotten dinner in the neighboring city so no comments to that.

Starting with the staff who were very friendly, continuing with the location of the hotel, which is to 5 minutes from the beautiful Skógafoss waterfall. The hotel has a restaurant with a great panorama towards to the waterfall. The food is delicious and varied. Warm greetings and many thanks to Octavian from restaurant for his kindness and pleasant conversation.

Beautiful hotel in a picturesque setting with a view of the nearby glacier if the weather is clear. We loved the restaurant in the hotel and our service was excellent. This was the only Fosshotel our group stayed at while in Iceland as they were generally more pricey than our other accommodations, but we thought it was well worth it!

Having to 'get around Ring Road' definitely has its drawbacks. The biggest one we found was when you found a great place, your time there was limited. We did stop for the Lava Show in Vik, which was great, and we had dinner there as well. There was not enough time to really see everything before having to move on.

Iceland is a very expensive place to travel and this guest house was average price for Iceland but the quality of the rooms were low average. Our room had such a bad slope on it we had to sleep at the other end of the bed with our heads above our feet. The bathroom had a toilet in the middle of the room, you had to walk around it to get to the shower and even though the room came with breakfast included it was very poor quality.

Great place in south of Iceland.

Great place in south of Iceland. The town of "flowers" is a good name for this place, as it is the warmest place in Iceland, where they grow flowers and enjoy life. It has the best swimming pool of the whole country, with an amazing "steam room" that is heated with steam straight from the vulcanic core of our planet.
