The location is perfect and ideally located close to the glacier, easy access and yet secluded. Clean, functionable and well thought out layout. Owner is very responsive. We enjoyed the use of the terrace and the large windows to watch sunset and spot the northern lights from. Would definitely stay here again.

stunning, make sure you walk all the way down the trail, there are two other gorgeous waterfalls that a lot of people missed by not going all the way to end end of the trail (which is only a few hundred meters long).AAnonymous - 8.0Scored 8.0

This is an amazing place to hike and see some glorious views - especially on a clear day - which can be a bit tricky. We were extremely fortunate to have some of the the sunniest days recorded. Could not ask for a more comfortable hike. There are glacier hikes that you can pay for but honestly parking at the Park and hiking up yourself is something you will not soon forget. Not too laborious, but you defintely feel like you are exercising. Loved every minute of this hike and I wish I could have stayed longer.maryUnited States - 10Scored 10

Sadly we only had a day in Skaftafell and I wish we had more time to explore the national park. What we did see was stunning. Nature, hikes, glaciers and ocean all within a stones throw of each other. Well worth a longer visit than just to pass through.

Tremendous family run generational local property.
Tremendous family run generational local property. Gorgeous setting and very close to National Park. Great path in rear of property leading to amazing glacier views and outlet lagoon. Lovely dinner and dessert! Friendly, warm staff. Great relaxing indoor bar and outdoor patio with stunning glacier views. Thank you, Hotel Skaftafell!!!WilliamsdottirUnited States

- 8.2Scored 8.2Very goodRated very good· 3,715 reviewsThough hotel Skaftafell is located in the middle of nowhere, its location is super-efficient for exploring the Skaftafell national park with all its glaciers. Jokulsarlon and Fjallsarlon glacial lagoons and horse-riding. The restaurant is a highlight (and pretty much the only option as there's virtually nothing nearby) - the food is quite inventive, well-cooked and flavoursome. The restaurant service is also warm, friendly and efficient.MaximSwitzerland
- 8.2Scored 8.2Very goodRated very good· 3,715 reviewsStandard European breakfast was nice. Dinner at the restaurant did not meet expectations after reading other reviews. Beds were unbelievably hard and seemed small for twins. We had the misfortune of having some sort of really loud generator (?) going all night, which we heard because we kept our window open since the room was so warm. We stayed in many hotels around Ring Road and I felt this was the least impressive.
andreaUnited States - 8.2Scored 8.2Very goodRated very good· 3,715 reviewsLovely people at this very clean hotel situated strategically a 10-40 minutes drive from great waterfalls and icebergs. Just a 15 minutes walk behind the hotel is a Svinafellsjökull Iceberg. We stayed two nights in the beginning of April and caught a glimpse of the Northern Lights. The food is excellent, both breakfast buffet and dinner. Highly recommended!
OliverNorway - 8.2Scored 8.2Very goodRated very good· 3,715 reviewsIt’s the only place near the entrance of the National park, but other reviews said it wasn’t that good….but I was VERY happy there. REALLY great hike right behind the hotel (to a glacier) and super nice staff and happy hour and nice lobby and totally acceptable rooms. Not luxury but totally nice and clean and good. The other review was wrong.
WilliamUnited States - 8.2Scored 8.2Very goodRated very good· 3,715 reviewsThe hotel was excellent with very friendly staff. It is ideally located to do excursions such as the ice caves. It also has nice hiking areas to the rear leading to nearby glaciers. The restaurant and bar were extremely good and the buffet breakfast with some hot food available was very good.
