Quiet valley base for South Coast days

The Volcano Hotel keeps things simple in the best way, with a relaxed bed-and-breakfast setup designed for short stays between big outdoor days. It’s set in the Mýrdalur valley beneath Katla and Mýrdalsjökull, giving the place a scenic, rural calm. Inside, modern design nods to volcanoes, glaciers, and black sand beaches.

This was a lovely place, in a great location near to the Dyrholaey lighthouse and nature reserve and within easy access to Vik. The staff were very helpful and everything was clean and in good order. Our room was very spacious and comfortable. We ate dinner in the restaurant. As we were the only guests wishing to dine it was important that we reserved a table beforehand and gave them our menu choices. Food was excellent and very prompt.

Nice place. Great views. The room was way too warm. There was no way to adjust the heat. Breakfast was great. Very hearty.

10/10 Exceptional

Located c 6 miles from Vik, which was fine as car journey easy. Simple tasty breakfast with good selection. Spacious room, uniquely constructed using volcanic materials, to good effect. Parking available close to Hotel frontage (care needed to avoid nesting bird). Set in rural farming area, very quiet, suited us and good sleep.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the complimentary breakfast was excellent. The only downside was that the used coffee pods in the container hadn't been emptied by housekeeping and were already full when we arrived. I ended up disposing of them myself. Other than that, we had a pleasant stay.

Verified review

6/10 Good

The Volcano Hotel is about 10 kn west of Vik, not in town. It is a quiet location with basic rooms. The rooms have room darkening shades but lack blackout curtains. The friendly staff would have prepared a limited dinner upon request. The breakfast could have been better. They offered yogurt in milk containers, not fresh skyr as part of a breakfast buffet. Look for other options if you must stay near Vik, but settle for the Volcano Hotel if location in this area is priority.
