Hotel Skaftafell

Hotel Skaftafell

8/10 Good
"On arrival (26/04) we were greated by a lovely lady, she was helpful and changed our room to two single beds instead of a double bed, that was a life saver. (Parking was easy too and plenty of spaces) Room was SUPER clean and everything you could need there. Tea and coffee facilities was brilliant. The beds were extremely comfortable and the view was our of this world. Shower had shampoo, conditioner and body wash that smelled amazing and the shower was very powerful! The only "criticism" I have about the room is the kettle placement, we had to use the bathroom plug to boil it as the closest plug to the desk was too far away. Breakfast was good, plenty of bread and crackers available, cheese, ham and fruits etc, cereal and hot food (beans, egg, bacon and small sausags). The only "criticism" I have if I was being very very fussy about breakfast was that there wasn't a lot of yoghurt selection to choose from, there was only one yoghurt choice. All in all, brilliant location to stop between Höfn and Vik, clean room and hotel overall, friendly staff and would definitely visit again."
