Minimalist calm with lakefront drama

Fosshotel Mývatn sets a hushed, expansive tone, where intentional restraint and natural materials keep the volcanic landscape in focus. Clean lines, dark tones, and floor-to-ceiling windows pull in shifting light and weather, turning quiet public spaces into a reset button after a day outside. Guest rooms continue the sleek wood theme with minimalist, mid-century styling and big window views.

10/10 Exceptional

Our room was modern, spotless, and very comfortable—and the large window was the best part: we were able to see the Northern Lights from our room without even going outside, which was unforgettable. The on-site restaurant was also excellent with great views, and everything from check-in to parking was easy. Perfect base for exploring the Mývatn area.

Quality. Roads had closed due to high winds the night before and asked them on Expedia at 6 in the morning if the road would be open by check-in time and they replied in like 3 minutes they would be cleared :) Buffet breakfast had the full range. Located right next to Myvatn Snowmobiling with beautiful places like Hverir, Hverfjall and Grjótagjá nearby!
