The rooms were spacious. The staff was friendly. The issue with the shower wetting the whole bathroom floor was a problem especially when there are no shelves or hooks to keep your toiletries and clean clothes. Breakfast was good.

Property was very disappointing considering the cost. The bathroom had three in one for body wash/ shampoo/ conditioner. There was no separation from the toilet and shower so the floors were chronically wet. Not impressed.

Lovely staff.

The Staff were great, friendly & helpful. The room was ok but could have done with a little fridge. Sadly, the bed wasn't the most comfortable. The room was clean , simple & basic. Very tasty food in the restuarant. Ate there both nights of our stay & the meals were lush.

This was our 2nd time staying at Hotel Jokull and would definitely stay again. The rooms were very clean and had everything we needed. There were 3 adults and we never felt cramped in the triple room. Breakfast was great. The area is beautiful and only a short drive to Höfn. We highly recommend staying here.
