The entire stay was amazing. The room and bathroom were spacious with several amenities. Being able to walk to Goðafoss was a memorable experience. Dinner at Agave was delicious.

Charmant hotel met top locatie, recent gerenoveerd, kamer voor 4 is klein maar aangenaam. Ontbijt is lekker, vers en verzorgd. Het personeel is super vriendelijk!

The property was next to the falls. Easy checkin and out if arriving after 10PM and they accomodate but WhatsApp or call them prior. We sat out at midnight and walked to falls it’s different and have falls to yourself! Good breakfast slightly pricey but worth it.

Excellent location right next to Godafoss. Clean and quiet room. Very friendly staff. Dinner was good. Breakfast was good, but we felt it was small and not worth what they charge for it.

We absolutely LOVED our stay at Hotel Godafoss!! What really stood out to us was the caring, attentive, approachable and generous staff, specifically the owner/operator of the property. She puts everything she has into making sure you have a lovely stay. She's put a lot of love into her meals at the restaurant, and we all had an excellent dinner after a long day of hiking. We had to make a last minute change of hotel plans due to another hotel falsely advertising amenities (like laundry facilities) and the cleanliness of their location. The owner of Hotel Godafoss helped us out tremendously by taking our laundry, and we snagged the last two rooms she had available. The rooms are definitely small and cozy, but the location is PERFECT! From a delicious on-site, family-run restaurant to being steps away from Godafoss where you can walk the trails late in the evening practically alone...it was the absolute perfect stay for us.

Very attentive staff. Host at the reception was very welcoming and even showed us to our room! She talked a little about the waterfalls and the best times to see it without many tourists around. The property itself is wonderful with the backdrop of Godafoss. Bathroom was a little small but met our needs. Room was overall clean and cozy.

Lili was a delightful host. The rooms were clean and quiet. Once you step outside you can hear the fallls. It actually gets dark enough there to be able to see the northern lights
