    Is tough to come up with something. One of our rooms didn't have a hair dryer comma and when that was brought to the staff's attention it was immediately resolved. A lighter blanket would have been nice since it wasn't nearly cold enough for the provided feathered ducka.

    Breakfast was great - not just the cold cuts you usually find, but included great scrambled eggs and bacon. The other selections - yogurt, cereals, juices, hot drinks (including chocolate), etc - were great.

    There is no kettle in the room. Next to the hotel is the restaurant which is open for all guests who come to visit Skogafoss. It is a bit noisy and crowded at the entrance lobby area while it is peak dining hour.

    From the window can see the waterfall, great view.

    Beautiful little home close to Skogafoss

    • Apartment with Terrace
    • Stayed 1 night

    Email from booking.com didn't make it clear how we needed to pick up the keys and the address we got sent us to the wrong place. There was also an issue with lots of flies in the accommodation which we had to chase out/swat in order to be able eat dinner.

    Really great place next to Skogafoss. We had the terrace superior apartment which was very secluded. Bonus was that it came with a hot tub. We really enjoyed our stay here after the Laugavegur hike and had a really great evening before moving on to our next road trip destination.

    The location is amazing - you can walk over to Skógafoss in less than 5 minutes - and if you book a room with a view, you can see it from your rooms! We had a small room but it did its job. The restaurant was nice - again you have great views of the falls from there.

    Room and ensuite felt quite dated, no tea and coffee in the room, although available for free in the main hallway.

    Fantastic location with views of the waterfall. Good sized comfortable family room with king sized bed and bunks for the children. Restaurant food delicious but pricey.

    The room was clean and comfortable but could have had more electrical outlets and a bit larger TV not stuck in a corner and a bit dated carpet and furniture.

    The breakfast buffet in the morning was so amazing, the location was wonderful too. We had one of the larger family rooms that was spacious and roomy.

    We didn't eat at the restaurant but had the exact same meal a couple towns over and it was a good deal cheaper.

    You can't beat the location. Right next to the most beatific waterfall! Top notch service and a chance to chill outside with a glass of vino while admiring the view if the falls.
