Beautiful architecture, in a wonderful natural setting. The entire hotel seems an oasis, while the individual rooms are "suspended pods" in an atemporal landscape. A few words come to mind when we think about our experience here: shelter, warmth, protected seclusion, world class design, strength.
Beautiful property, friendly staff
Great hotel to stay near Glacier Lagoon and Diamond beach. Amazing view, nice bar and restaurant.
The lot waa plowed concierge friendly, room clean, restaurant best in all Iceland
Due to severe weather conditions, the road to Fosshotel Glacier was shutdown and we were unable to arrive to the hotel. As the room type we booked was non-refundable, we contacted the hotel directly for arrangement. Fosshotel had nicely transfer our night to the Grand Hotel located in the city with their company. Grand hotel was very nice and clean. The hotel lobby was contemporary. We highly appreciated the customer service of Fosshotel and their arrangement.
The property is beautiful, and everything from the finishes to the light fixtures render it more a work of modern art than a contemporary hotel. And the food at the restaurant was fantastic. All courses were meticulously plated and thoughtfully prepared. But a meal is about more than food. It is about the full dining experience, which begins when you sit down and ends a few days later when you're still savoring flavorful memories of each and every bite. So here's where things went wrong. 1) After being seated, we sat for 30 minutes without so much as a glass of water or eye contact from the waitstaff. I had to walk back to the hostess stand and ask for water (and a server to take our order). 2) A few minutes later, I was told the bar was out of the beer I ordered. Normally this wouldn't be a big deal, but given the already frustrating experience, it was salt in the wound. 3) For some inexplicable (and unexplained) reason, it took 20 MINUTES for our tap beer to arrive. When it did come, it was not accompanied by an apology or appreciation for our already tried patience. I'm fairly sure our server forgot about it because much like the water, we only got it after flagging down another server (since ours was nowhere to be found). 4) Throughout our meal, we were shown all the warmth of a rainy Icelandic day. The meal itself was epic. The service was an epic failure.
Overall just ok. Dinner super-expensive and very good. However, menu is limited and does not change from day to day. Breakfast buffet is identical for each day. Not a lot of items. Laundry quite expensive, some clothes were still wet when returned. Room ok. Shower on the bathroom floods the whole bathroom floor when used. On the positive, people are super-nice.
Good location. Nice restaurant- both dinner and the included breakfast. Comfortable bed and good shower.
The hotel is well maintained, clean and has great amenities. Unfortunately I would not stay here again. They have a outside air vent that during high winds blows very very cold air straight in the bed and makes a terribly loud noise. We called the front desk and they said yes. Very tall person needs to make sure it’s tightly closed and sometimes u need to wrap a towel around it. But they wouldn’t send skneibe to do it. We had to climb in the table to wrap a towel over the vent. Stopped most of the cold air but not the noise. It was windy n the wind against the outside was to be expected but not this. Too bad because itvothreise would be a great place to stay but but for that price with that issue
Awesome location. Great staff. Overall awesome experience.
2nd time to this hotel. Very nice and modern. The best in the area.
Great location near Jokulsarlon Lagoon, excellent restaurant, clean, quiet, and good view.
Really nice hotel but there isn't a lot of food options around and the food at the hotel is very pricey. Very good breakfast!
