Guesthouse Skógafoss, hotel in Skogar

Located in Skogar, 1969 feet from Skogafoss Waterfall, Guest house Skógafoss provides accommodations with free WiFi and free private parking. Access to a kitchen is available for guests.

Great location just under a km from Skogafoss waterfall. Very convenient if you like to enjoy the waterfall in the early morning or at night (photography). Private entrance and private bathroom for the single room. Nice shared kitchen with all amenities. Single room is very small, but serves its purpose perfectly. Host even left a small heater in case I needed it for the cold night. Would stay again.

    Skogafoss is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the world, impressively large, and if there is even a little bit of sunshine, there will be a rain bow in front of the falls. The town of Skogar includes a noteworthy folk history museum.

    Great place to stop at while driving to Vik!

    Great place to stop at while driving to Vik! There are many things to see and do and endless hiking paths to follow. A few waterfalls around including Kvernufoss, which was amazingly hidden, but very near the Skogar Museum. The museum offers a variety of exhibits on history of the area ( outside part including turf houses), but also technical part - really amazing and great thing to do when the weather is not promising. We stayed at hotel Skogafoss and we had a real blast there! Highly recommended due to facilities and service alike. There is a Eyjafjallajökull visitor centre, right below the volcano- unfortunately closed during winter season. We drove and walked to Seljavallalaug hot spring natural pool, where you can swim, however water is quite cold. The surroundings is beautiful though. Further south you can drive towards Dyrhólaey and Reynisfjara/Black beach. We loved Skogar area very much and had amazing time at different spots around.

    The hotel is located very close from the waterfall.

    The hotel is located very close from the waterfall. The waterfall is spectacular! I recommend to go all the way up the stairs and walk around the trail and enjoy the marvelous view. It is a quiet and small town with very friendly people 😀

    The waterfall is the highlight, and if you have time, you should walk a bit further on the trail above it. It’s a beautiful hike. The folk museum is amazing, sounds corny, but it’s really good. It has an excellent cafe too. Area is close to Vik and the black sand beaches. The bistro at hotel Skogafoss is consistent and the food is good and reasonably priced for Iceland. Sadly the ‘secret’ waterfall now has a highway trodden too it and lots of erosion on site as people have climbed all over the grass outposts and killed all the vegetation.

    Self-check in easy and straightforward. Staff were very nice and super apologetic about our first room being dirty (see below). The bed in our second room we were given was very comfortable. Breakfast in the morning was delicious and had a really big variety of foods to eat, staff were on top of replenishing food that had run out. Location was great, a 2min drive from Skogafoss.

    The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about things to see nearby. The restaurant is excellent. We had breakfast and dinner twice, all the food was freshly prepared and very tasty. The location is quiet, a little off the ring road but easy to reach. Rooms are nice and very comfortable and clearly designed with the idea of providing a cozy, welcoming environment.

    The hotel is an old boarding school in an attractive area next to the Skogafoss waterfall. The breakfast lounge was most conducive and the large screen pop videos were a delight. The breakfast choices, including a cooked dish, were superb and way beyond what one would expect for this, a budget hotel. It´s worth a stay just to enjoy the breakfast!

    The breakfast was fabulous, with cooked options, plenty of fruit and vegetables, cereals, home-made jams... and mini custard doughnuts were a real hit! Perfect location within walking distance from the Skogar Museum, Kvernufoss and Skogafoss. Friendly staff at the check-out.
