Ring Road base with glacier views

Fosshotel Vatnajökull keeps things easy for southeast Iceland road trips, just 2 km off Route 1 with big views built into the setting. The look is contemporary but warm, with polished timber floors and custom furniture that nod to the landscape. Evenings can start in the lounge bar with cocktails and ambient music before turning in.
