    stunning, make sure you walk all the way down the trail, there are two other gorgeous waterfalls that a lot of people missed by not going all the way to end end of the trail (which is only a few hundred meters long).

    This is an amazing place to hike and see some glorious views...

    This is an amazing place to hike and see some glorious views - especially on a clear day - which can be a bit tricky. We were extremely fortunate to have some of the the sunniest days recorded. Could not ask for a more comfortable hike. There are glacier hikes that you can pay for but honestly parking at the Park and hiking up yourself is something you will not soon forget. Not too laborious, but you defintely feel like you are exercising. Loved every minute of this hike and I wish I could have stayed longer.

    Sadly we only had a day in Skaftafell and I wish we had more time to explore the national park. What we did see was stunning. Nature, hikes, glaciers and ocean all within a stones throw of each other. Well worth a longer visit than just to pass through.

    Though hotel Skaftafell is located in the middle of nowhere, its location is super-efficient for exploring the Skaftafell national park with all its glaciers. Jokulsarlon and Fjallsarlon glacial lagoons and horse-riding. The restaurant is a highlight (and pretty much the only option as there's virtually nothing nearby) - the food is quite inventive, well-cooked and flavoursome. The restaurant service is also warm, friendly and efficient.

    This was one of our favorite hotels during our trip to Iceland! The staff was so nice and helpful. Parking was easy. We ate an amazing dinner at their on-site restaurant, drank tea in their upstairs lounge area, and enjoyed a wonderful breakfast! We loved taking a short walking path from the hotel right to a glacier. Definitely highly recommended!

    Our room was at the back of the hotel and had a magnificent view of a snow capped mountain. We went for a walk (suggested by receptionist) after checking in to the glacier at the back of the hotel. Easy path and worth doing. The room was very clean and cosy with comfortable beds. A good night’s sleep. Breakfast was a buffet and plentiful.

    The locale is awesome. We hiked over to the Svinafellsjokull Glacier from the Hotel and thoroughly enjoyed the proximity of the Glacier and the chance to see it up close. A bonus for anyone who makes a booking at Hotel Skaftafell. In addition the various Glacier Hiking companies have their Base Camp within a few Km distance from the Hotel.

    The location great. I had requested for a quiet room and the hotel was kind to fulfill this request. I enjoyed dinner at the restaurant. The dishes were delicious and prepared to a good standard. The staff at reception were always friendly, at any time of the day.

    Room was very generic for the price. During our trip, we paid much less for much better accommodations. The beds were very old and soft compared to other hotels thus far. Not sure I can agree with the the Bookings.com recommendation on this one.

    Located within 5 minutes drive from Skaftafell nature reserve. Very friendly staff, asking if we would like a wakeup call in case the Northern lights appear, and waking us up at the right time. Very good and interesting dinner at the restaurant.

    Our room location was very private and we had a great view of the glacier out the window. The breakfast was excellent with both local and international selections. The location was perfect - only 5 minutes from the National Park entrance.

    The hotel is set in a beautiful location close to a glacier which you can walk to in about 15 mins. The rooms were a good size and clean, and the buffet breakfast offered a very good selection.
