The location is perfect and ideally located close to the glacier, easy access and yet secluded. Clean, functionable and well thought out layout. Owner is very responsive. We enjoyed the use of the terrace and the large windows to watch sunset and spot the northern lights from. Would definitely stay here again.
Set next to Hof turf church, this hotel offers an on-site restaurant and free WiFi. Skaftafell National Park is 15 minutes' drive away from the hotel. Cape of Ingolfshöfdi is 3 km away.

Stayed in the studio, was an amazing stay, really easy to check in, views from the studio were outstanding, take food with you and enjoy the facilities. Comfy bed and warm showers. Best tap water ever.

stunning, make sure you walk all the way down the trail, there are two other gorgeous waterfalls that a lot of people missed by not going all the way to end end of the trail (which is only a few hundred meters long).

This is an amazing place to hike and see some glorious views - especially on a clear day - which can be a bit tricky. We were extremely fortunate to have some of the the sunniest days recorded. Could not ask for a more comfortable hike. There are glacier hikes that you can pay for but honestly parking at the Park and hiking up yourself is something you will not soon forget. Not too laborious, but you defintely feel like you are exercising. Loved every minute of this hike and I wish I could have stayed longer.

Sadly we only had a day in Skaftafell and I wish we had more time to explore the national park. What we did see was stunning. Nature, hikes, glaciers and ocean all within a stones throw of each other. Well worth a longer visit than just to pass through.

Tremendous family run generational local property.
Tremendous family run generational local property. Gorgeous setting and very close to National Park. Great path in rear of property leading to amazing glacier views and outlet lagoon. Lovely dinner and dessert! Friendly, warm staff. Great relaxing indoor bar and outdoor patio with stunning glacier views. Thank you, Hotel Skaftafell!!!
The hotel is very close to one of the main glaciers in Iceland, so it is a great option, if not the only one, if doing some tours around.
The facilities were great. The room had a good size and the bathroom was clean.
Continental breakfast included in the room rate. Probably, it was the best I had during my stay in Iceland.
The staff is just outstanding.
There is a smaller galcier at the back of the hotel, with several trails to explore the area.
A restaurant, gas station and its shop across the road.
The Hotel is located in a great area, you can see the Skaftafell glacier from your room and get to a beutifull lake within a short walk. The Staff was lovely and supper helpfull, room was of a regular size, enough space for what we needed but very clean. We stayed for 2 nights and had an amazong experience. Ther bar has a great view to the Glacier as well. I'll highly recomended
Great staff, excellent free breakfast, good restaurant, and unforgettable views! The rooms are classically Euro- Spartan. No frills but all the basics were in good order. Room had twin beds instead of a single queen and the room was missing bath towels. All in all, a good experience and I would stay there again.
The staff was very accommodating. The surrounding location was stunning and everything was perfect for our group. Breakfast and our one dinner was delicious as well. Also, on our 2nd stay with you all it was so touching to see the hotel put up so many travelers due to the roads being closed due to the wind.
The food in the hotel restaurant was excellent and far exceed the expectations I had of a 3* property.
The property was a convenient place to stop on a drive from Reykjavik to Hofn and the location was also excellent for the stunning Fagurholsmyri Glacier.
Beautiful short trail to Skaftafell Glacier right at its backyard!
Very charming and endearing hotel.
Very clean and thoughtfully organised room and amenities.
Opposite to a restaurant, petrol kiosks and groceries.
Very good breakfast spread.
The breakfast was wonderful! There is a short hike to the glacier right behind the hotel. The front desk staff is excellent and caring! The restaurant for dinner is ok. There is a gas station with food for lunch across the street
Medium-sized, family-run hotel. Friendly staff. Pleasant, clean, functionally furnished rooms. Average breakfast. There is not much accomodation choice in Skaftafell if you want to make a glacier tour from there.
Restaurant was good. They offered gluten free bread upon request. Breakfast was good. They provided gloves and sanitizer for the buffet. Walk out to the glacier was very worth while.
Perfectly fine hotel when passing through and wanting to spend some time in Skaftafell. We had rooms in de back part which were in a quiet location. Comfortable beds.
