Fosshotel Mývatn is a gem in North Iceland! This was my second time staying here, and once again, it exceeded expectations. The rooms are modern, cozy, and offer incredible views of Lake Mývatn. The staff was warm and helpful, and the on-site restaurant served some of the best meals I had on the trip. It's the perfect base for exploring the surrounding natural wonders, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone staying in the area!

Welcoming services on a long road trip

This is our second Foss Hotel we stayed at on this trip. We booked another Foss because the first one was so great. Thus one was even better. Again, a warm welcome and a welcome warmth after a long day on the road. The room was beautiful and had everything we needed.

Close to Sights with Northern Lights

Great stay with views of Northern Lights from the hotel! The breakfast is well worth the extra fee - a good spread of items (and you’d be hard pressed to find somewhere else to eat nearby). A good launching point for all the nearby sights. We’d stay here again!

best hotel for vacation in Myvatn, good location with brilliant view. On the first light I was lucky enough to see some northern light at the car park. Room is spacious and easy to access to the sauna and the restaurant at the hotel, and the restaurant offer good quality food so I don't have to spend time to look for a restaurant in the district. Also the staff are friendly and I had a wonderful experience during my stay.
