"The surrounding area is beautiful and the cottage was cozy. Staff was also very friendly. My only complaint is that we didn’t find out until entering our unit and seeing a sign on the bathroom that they don’t get much hot water. The sign says to use hot water sparingly. I made sure to get all the way in the shower before turning the water on given the warning. The warm water didn’t even last 2minutes before turning ice cold. Overall we enjoyed our stay, but given the winter conditions we would...

"The area by this hotel is amazing. It was clean and nice, though on the smaller side. Hot water is limited but shouldn’t be an issue if you take quick showers. "

"Property was as expected. We were informed just prior to our arrival that the onsite restaurant was closed and there were no other food options available in the town or nearby. This was inconvenient however, we made arrangements due to their pre warning. Breakfast options were limited but overall okay. Hotel was fine for a one night stay if you just need somewhere to sleep. The man on reception/breakfast was extremely friendly and helpful. "

"Truly a gorgeous apartment on the sea looking out at the Atlantic and the fjords. Amazing sunset views and we saw the aurora borealis our one night there. It is also minutes from the stunning national park at the end of the snaefellsnes peninsula. Best bed and sleep we had in Iceland, would highly recommend. Only thing is the grocery store and even gas station close around 6 (at least on Sunday when we were there) so get groceries early if you need food or plan to cook here! "

The beach! This was the best photo of the beach part. If I turned to the left there are more lave formations the waves crash into. Worth the stop!

"Great place to stay"

5/5 Excellent

"My spouse and I booked the Fosshotel Hellnar as a stop on our Iceland road trip. It ended up being the perfect location to stop after 1 day travel from Reykjavik and partway around the Snaefellsnes peninsula. We were cold and tired by that point and the Fosshotel was so comfortable on our arrival. The fireplace in the lobby was very inviting. The room was spacious, comfortable and the heated bathroom floor tiles were such an appreciated luxury to us that day. We enjoyed dinner at the hotel restaurant as well as their breakfast buffet. All of the food was delicious. The prices were shocking to us in Canadian dollars but we got used to that in Iceland after a while. For the large portions and great quality, the prices were comparatively fair. The hotel didn't have some of the amenities that we had in other stays during our trip but the location was beautiful. We had a gorgeous view of the glacier from our room before rain and fog settled in low for the evening. "

A Comfortable Home Base to Explore the Snaefellsbaer Peninsula

"My wife and I spent four nights in this duplex cottage in the town of Hellnar on the Snaefellsbaer Peninsula. We were greeted by an amazing display of the Northern Lights on our first night. The place was comfortable and quiet and had all the amenities needed to feel like home for a few days. The views are stunning--the sea in one direction and mountains and the volcano that dominates the west end of the peninsula in the other. There are several little places to eat within a 5-10 minutes drive and even more if you're willing to drive 30-45 minutes. Two things to note. First, all the bedrooms are upstairs and the staircase (really more like a ladder) is very steep--going up isn't too bad, but coming down can be a little scary. Second, the bathroom is tight. We adapted and it was fine. Overall, the home was a great place to explore the Snaefellsbaer Peninsula."

Lovely Stay

"The location was stunning with the ocean on one side and the volcano on the other side. Very quiet and tiny village with a couple great restaurants/coffee shop. Within walking distance to the trail head of the Hellnar-Arnarstapi hike. The cottage was cozy and the beds comfy. We loved our stay and would definitely stay again!"
