Warm design, big-sky Iceland calm

Hotel Husafell keeps things simple and smart with one-story buildings made from local natural materials, plus large windows that brighten the rooms. Days wind down at the glass-walled bar in the swimming complex, pouring craft cocktails like the Nordic Cosmo and Rhubarb Sour. It is an easygoing base that suits everyone from families with little children to larger mature groups.

The hotel was clean and the pool was a delight.
Verified review

6/10 Good

We weren’t aware that this hotel is far from amenities. The photos look more impressive than the hotel was. The rooms are very bare - we had the room closest to the lobby and the noise level from the restaurant was at times high. The hotel just didn’t suit our needs. Hotel staff was friendly. We expected a luxury hotel and this wasn’t it. Breakfast was ok without much variation from one day to the next. Dinner was good.

A gem in the middle of Husafell. Thanks to the staff thoughtful tracking of the Noethen Lights, we were able to see them in mid April. The restaurant is top notch and the heated pools are a bonus!

10/10 Exceptional

If you’re doing West Iceland properly, this is such a solid stay. Hotel Húsafell feels modern and comfortable but still totally embedded in the landscape. It’s a perfect launching point for hikes and local tours, and it’s so nice to come back to a warm, quiet room after a full day out. The staff were genuinely kind, and the restaurant/bar setup made evenings easy without needing to drive anywhere else

The hotel restaurant is fantastic! Food is fresh, locally sourced and delicious. The hotel has an understated luxurious feel with warm comforts and great service. The onsite thermal pools were wonderful after a long day on the glaciers or caving; traveled with a 9yr old and he was more than welcome in the pools and had a great time. Also, a great location as it is a 1 min walk from Into the Glacier tours (highly recommend)

Hotel Husafell is a beautiful place to get away and enjoy the idyllic Iceland countryside. Lovely paths to walk on, gorgeous views, thermal heated pools, and an awesome happy hour and restaurant. The food was outstanding. The staff at the Husafell Hotel were also most helpful and kind. Maybe on my next visit there, I will be able to see the northern lights!
