Fosshotel Hekla

The hotel staff was very friendly and were helpful with directions and recommendations. The lobby and small bar area is very comfortable and relaxing.

excellent hotel. nice locale even though it's a little secluded. Will stay there again if I'm in Iceland.

We absolutely loved this hotel. We booked a family suite and were amazed at the space that we had. A huge main double bedroom complete with sitting area, a twin room off this and a very large bathroom. This was also the cheapest hotel but for everything it offered we all thought the best. It was the only hotel that we stayed at that offered to make up a packed lunch (for a fee).

Great night sleep very quiet hotel, great breakfast with waffles and continental breakfast. Staff pleasant and helpful. Nice overnight stay, Geysir & Selfoss within 30 mins.

I have very low standards when staying at 3 star hotels and for the record, during the trip I stayed at 3 star hotels most of the nights (except the night at fosshotel glacier lagoon). I was overall satisfied with the hotels EXCEPT this one. 1. One of the two main lights was OUT which leaves us with two tiny lamps and one main light on ceiling. 2. Bathroom shower stall does not drain fast enough - water all over the bathroom & Bathroom smells & Tiny sink 3. Heater is not warm. It was the COLDEST NIGHT in Iceland - I had to sleep with short pants and short sleeves at other hotels cuz it gets hot but at this hotel, I had to put on long pants and it still was not enough. 4. The curtain does NOT CLOSE all the way - I had to use my clip to hold the curtains together. 5. Front desk staff was okay but when I asked her if she could put me down on Northern light wake up knock list, she said she doesn't do that service for no reasons - She literally said "I don't do that service today. I just don't" (there even was a tour group in the hotel) 6. at 9 am, a cleaning staff was unlocking our door just assuming we have checked out because tour group ppl have left. After I asked them what's going on from the inside they stopped trying to open the door and left WITHOUT apologies. Even after reading my review, if you are still planning on staying here, make sure you bring a CLIP, EXTRA BLANKET, A SIGN that reads 'we have not checked out', LIGHT BULB, and DRAIN CLOG REMOVER.

Very friendly staff. Highly recommend it.

The hotel was really nice, the staff were very friendly. The food in the restaraunt was first class and reasonably priced for location. We are planning on coming back in summer Coffee and tea in the hall which was nice, only slight moan was lack of TV channels, although I spent a lot of time freezing on the balcony looking for the lights!

Hotel itself is like an old country house that needs to be updated a bit. Room was ok - bathroom shower was actually a drain in the floor with expandable doors that you pulled out around it. Nothing fancy. Outside there were two hot tubs - one was out of commission. There was also a steam shower. Restaurant food was good but expensive - and you basically have to eat there as you are not that close to any other restaurants. I would recommend it. For the price it was a good hotel.

OK

Room was very spacious. hotel staff were very welcoming. Loved the bar area. Had a very nice fireplace. Wish there was somewhere to buy snacks, since hotel isnt really near anything.
