The hotel was clean, modern, comfortable and the shower was amazing! The food & drinks in the hotel restaurant were wonderful! Loved our two night stay here - close to Vik, walk to Skógafoss Waterfall which is literally right next to hotel. Breakfast was great too! I would definitely stay here again!

FANTASTIC location overlooking and with an easy walk to Skógafoss. The hotel is a bit tired though (in need of renovation) but clean, convenient and a nice restaurant on-site.
Really enjoyed our stay. Amazing location, nice staff, comfortable beds. The hike up to Skogafoss behind the hotel was beautiful. Highly recommend!

The room was kind of dated, the bathroom looked old and gross, breakfast was great , had dinner in restaurants. Chicken burger was an embarrassment for that price, artic char was good, overall your restaurant food is overpriced for the quality, beef burgerwere very small .

Nice convenient hotel for the waterfall, welcoming staff, good breakfast.
The walls unfortunately are paper-thin
Very clean and cute hotel. Small rooms, but that is to be expected in the location. Right next to the falls and the restaurant has an excellent post-hike cheeseburger
We stayed as a family of four (kids 5 & 10) and loved every moment. The location is unbeatable — right next to Skógafoss waterfall, visible from our room! Comfortable, clean, and family‑friendly. Breakfast was fresh, delicious, and had great variety. Perfect base for exploring the Golden Circle and South Coast. Highly recommend!
