Absolutely wonderful time here. You are basically right in lake Myvatn and the rooms are basically in the lava fields of the area. We got to pet the baby and adult cows and ate breakfast while they were being milked which was amazing. The dinner and the breakfast buffet were both delicious. The room itself was very nice (but very hot) and the bed was good. Everyone who worked here was really lovely.

A gem of a place - they have made so much out of a simple sparse farm area. The staff was absolutely lovely and the restaurant - both dinner and breakfast - was super good, high quality and excellent service. Rooms are simple and clean. Cows are behind a glass wall but you can visit them whenever you want! Perfectly located for Myvatn area visiting.

We stayed at Vogafjos for two nights on our trip around the ring road. It was super comfortable, clean and quiet. We had dinner at their restaurant one night and it was fantastic - one of the best meals of our trip so far! I highly recommend and we would definitely stay there again!

Avoid if you have food allergies / Kids

This hotel is not very inclusive of people with food allergies or suitable for children. We stayed at the hotel in June 2024 during a severe weather warning when we were restricted / couldn’t travel anywhere. Our 7 year old daughter has a dairy and egg allergy. There was no dairy free milk or dairy free butter at breakfast which significantly limited our daughter’s breakfast options. In addition to this there was no sausage or bacon. It was all cheese, yoghurt, cold meats, cereal, none of which a child would eat / could eat. I mentioned this to the staff and all they could suggest was she eat fruit. There was no offer to try and accommodate her allergies. This was very stressful given the fact we were stranded at this hotel (roads closed due to snow). They didn’t even have a kids menu for lunch/evening. I think this hotel is more geared to couples, not families and certainly not people who have allergies. As a result every night, we risked driving 4 minutes up the road in bad weather so my daughter could eat at the restaurant next to another hotel. In summary I would also advise not staying in Lake Myvatn, but in Akuyeri. Lake Myvatn is in the middle of nowhere and if you get snow (in June!!!) you will be stranded. Nobody clears the road between Akureyi and Lake Myvatn.
