Clean room, friendly staff, great breakfast and beautiful oceanfront views. We saw the northern lights on the first night. Beautiful water falls nearby.
Loved the location for the quietness, views of both the sea and the mountain behind us. We also ate dinner at the hotel, and it was very good. Some noise from room next door, but the room was clean and comfortable.
This was our 2nd Fosshotel during the Ring Road, and we enjoyed this one way more. It's cozy inviting vs the last one that felt like it was trying to be a fancy hotel. The food was delicious, the workers were nice and we stayed in room 9B which apparently is the nicest room there. Definitely a beautiful room plus porch area
Beautiful view and great location to see northern lights. The suite offers a nice balcony to relax and enjoy the sunshine and ocean view. Queen bed was very comfortable with good pillows. Does have a tub/shower combination. Restaurant offers limited options but food was great with friendly service. Breakfast buffet provided many options.
We had such a wonderful stay! The rooms were clean, the bed was comfortable, the rain shower amazing, the food (both dinner and breaks fast) was excellent, and maybe best of all, the black out shade was so top notch that we woke up and didn’t know what day it was. I have only wonderful things to say and would absolutely come stay again!
We checked in a day early after an abysmal experience at our previous hotel - and we’re glad we did! Beautiful location, comfortable beds, spotless room, exceptional staff, and amazing breakfasts and dinners. This was a truly memorable place.
Nicest staff of all the hotels we stayed at on our ten day Iceland trip. Beautiful secluded property with good dining room on site. Great for a night or two on the peninsula
The hotel was lovely. Bed was comfortable. The heated floor in the bathroom was awesome. Supper and breakfast were both great. Would definitely recommend this hotel.
