Top Vatnshellir Cave Hotel Reviews

Fosshotel Hellnar

10/10 Excellent

"We upgraded to an ocean-view room, which looked over the rooftops of the neighboring property and then the ocean. Nice to look at while sorting in bed. The room was very comfortable and nicely decorated. The heated floors in the bathroom get 6+ stars! Our included breakfast buffet had lots of choices, but the eggs, sausage and bacon were luke warm. Coffee machine gets high marks, too. The friendly and helpful staff warmly welcomed us and dinner in the onsite restaurant our first night was very good. We had the cod."

Arnarstapi Cottages

10/10 Excellent

GREAT LOCATION - LUXURY COTTAGE – UNIQUE SURROUNDINGS - GLACIER – NATIONAL PARK

10/10 Excellent

"Great cabin with unmatched views right outside the door. Lots of spices left in the cupboards, no need to bring salt and pepper. Several packs of toilet paper left by previous occupants too. Pots, pans and dishes were well stocked and good quality. You do your own cleaning and laundry, so figure time for washing linens and towels before you leave. I didn’t see an outdoor outlet for a plug-in hybrid car so don’t rent that."

Beautiful home between glacier and sea, Iceland
