Gorgeous property and a gorgeous location. We were able to sit in the outdoor hot tub and look at the northern lights, which is truly phenomenal. The hotel is well located near a lot of cool sites and we enjoyed our dinner meal immensely. The breakfast buffet is a great added touch, and the service all over the hotel was wonderful.

This is a beautiful spot in literally the middle of nowhere. We ate in the restaurant and the food was OK but very expensive as is all of Iceland. The bar food looked great and was probably a level of expense down

Very good property in very dark area. Highest ceiling hotel I've been. We were on our way to glacier tour the next day morning. Perfect location, just 25 mins away from meetinfg point. They also offer Northern light alarm call service for complimentary. We were able to spot gleamce of aurora in the middle of night. Just sucks we can only stay here for a day due to our schedule. Highly recommend.

It is close to Glacier Bay, Diamond Beach and the Ice Caves. It is a serious hike from Reykjavik on a desolate road so you have to be committed to heading out to this area. If you are Fosshotel Glacier Bay is a fantastic choice. Fabulous food was quite a surprise. Try the tasting menu! The spa area was the only downfall. In a country known for their hot tubs and spa this hotel did not live up to the standards it set for everything else. Still I highly recommend and would absolutely return.

They had a very nice restaurant. Check-in was easy and they provided convenient, easy-to-use laundry service. The room was warm, nice, and comfortable. Their breakfast buffet in the morning was the best one we had throughout our two week stay in Iceland, so many tasty options to choose from. The staff was all friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay in another Fosshotel if we return.
