Top Thingvallavatn Hotel Reviews

Hotel Selfoss

Hotel Selfoss

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel is located right on the river, with excellent views! The room is spacious and the bed is incredibly comfortable; I could have slept here for DAYS!! The bathroom was also quite spacious with excellent water pressure. There was a party while we were at the hotel; I believe a corporate party for a nearby company. The amount of guests that were there for the party was quite high, but the lobby still felt warm and inviting. The bar/restaurant was slightly crowded, but nothing too bothersome. We were able to make use of the on-site spa, which included a sauna, steam room, cold plunge bath and relaxation pool. All were quite nice and certainly provided a little something extra that made you feel more relaxed. There was also a relaxation room with recliners, but we did not utilize that amenity. The hotel being in the center of town was also nice. There is a hot dog stand, Subway and Dominoes only steps from the hotel, along with several other dining options. Unfortunately, it was raining the entire time we were there, so we didn't venture out to far. Absolutely, without a doubt, recommend this hotel!!!"
