Amazing hotel with amazing views Great restaurant and spa area

Hotel was very nice. Beds were a little soft for my liking and the room was warm due to unseasonably warm weather and no AC in the rooms, but other than these two things, our stay was very comfortable.

The staff were disengaged and unfriendly. The fridge in our room wasn't cold enough to keep our food cold.

Hotel was nice but the rooms were extremely hot and there was no way to cool them down. We opened the small window and the room was filled with bugs that bit us all night. It was tough to sleep both nights with it being so hot and no way to cool the room down. A few people we talked to at the hotel had the same issue. It was cold outside but the hotel faces the sun and its all windows.

Great stay at this popular hotel. We used their Northern Lights wake-up call service which was very helpful. We saw the lights without having to stay up for hours waiting. Breakfast was amazing!

Hotel was nice, but definitely some downfalls. Dinner at the restaurant was amazing, but the snack menu at the bar - food was awful. In general the food and drinks were extremely overpriced. The negatives: tiny beds (hard for 2 people to sleep comfortably), and the service (except the restaurant). NO automatic room cleanings unless you request it by 10am. Really? Called down for extra coffee pods since our room hadn’t been cleaned and they told me to go down to reception to get it. Not acceptable hotel service.

Loved this hotel, worth the money for sure. The view from breakfast and the restaurant is stunning. The food is fabulous - highly recommend the salmon for dinner. The staff were lovely! Cocktails took a minute to arrive but no worries. Glacier nearby was great. We saw the northern lights too. The spa/hot tub area is lovely!

The Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon is a hotel almost in the middle of nowhere. As we were approaching the hotel area...well...we were not expecting much. However, this is a top notch hotel. The staff were very friendly and the room was nice. The hot tubs were great and they provided robes without charge (nice!). The restaurant, which is high quality, was expensive. The food was excellent and service excellent. Was not expecting such high quality in the middle of nowhere Iceland!!

it would have been AMAZING, except i slipped on the wet floor in the towel room near the sauna/hot tub. It was their crappy slippers and the fact that they SHOULD have the ENTIRE floor covered with slip proof mats,. not JUST by the entrance. When warning others, i was told "my friend slipped too last night" for the amount they are charging, they should have mats over the entire area!!!
