The check-in staff was very friendly. The room was very clean and modern. However, the room temperature during my stay in October was hot; I had to open the window during the night in order to sleep comfortably. I was not impressed with the food or service at the restaurant.

Hands down my favorite place I stayed in Iceland. Gorgeous hotel! Food, bar, spa, staff - all 10 out of 10! I loved the sauna so much and the slippers and robe were a nice touch. They offer wakeup call if Northern Lights are showing be sure to ask.

Fantastic Stay! Perfect Location for Glacier Adventures! We absolutely loved our stay at Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon! The location was perfect for exploring this beautiful part of Iceland, especially if you’re planning to visit the glacier, take an ice cave tour, or experience the Zodiac boat tour at Jökulsárlón. You really couldn’t ask for a better location! We were pleasantly surprised to receive two complimentary drink coupons, which was such a nice touch! The breakfast was phenomenal—seriously, one of the best breakfasts of our trip! We also had dinner at the hotel one evening, and the food was excellent. The servers were wonderful, and the entire staff was friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The atmosphere made it such a fun and relaxing place to return to after a full day of exploring. We loved everything about this hotel, from the food and hospitality to the incredible location. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone exploring Iceland’s glaciers and the South Coast!
