Hotels in Myvatn

Good location above the lake, nice room breakfast is good but reception is no service mind.

10/10 BEAUTIFUL! Location was amazing and we had a room on the 3rd floor, watching the amazing view. Very clean, very perfect. Also the breakfast is 10/10 would 100% recomend.

the best hotel in Myvatn. good place to view Northern Light. food is good. room is spacious n clean.

Great location. True 4-star hotel setting.

This is my second time visiting Fosshótel Mývatn and I could not recommend it more. Services, food and drinks are all top notch. The rooms are immaculate. There is an incredible sauna on the third floor that you can access until 10pm and the happy hour deals at the hotel bar are an excellent deal.

The hotel is very nicely located next to Lake Mytvan and can see the sunset and sunrise from the dining room as well as the room. We saw the northern light ftom our room window.Breakfast is good and the dinner at the restaurant was fantastic.Highly recommended, one the the best hotel we stayed in Iceland.

Can see Aurora outside right outside the hotel, it’s quite clean but only the shower water will become cold for seconds

The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was very nice. Great sleep.

Generally a very basic but clean hotel! Location was great, in the middle of the town near petrol kiosks and attractions

Very nice and quiet place to stay in. Not many other guest so we were able to enjoy the place. Had a hot spa but we didn’t try it as it was too cold. Breakfast spread was great also. Only stayed for 1 night . Wish we had more time for this hotel. There is a nice white church beside the hotel which makes a great photo! Highly recommended.

Lovely hotel and rooms. Room was clean, cosy and a bit small, but manageable even with our luggages. Bathroom was pretty nice altho there was a lack of hooks to hang towels and clothes, but they use l'Occitane shampoo, conditioner and soap which made it feel a little luxe. They had a Northern lights wake up service but by time I was called and we went down, clouds had come in and covered the sky. Would...

Amazing hotel. Reception provides bathrobes for the hot tubs. The rooms are very spacious and the hotel provides aurora night calls. One of the best hotels we stayed in Iceland.

Very expensive in the restaurant. Food was okay but we were charged £60 more than expected, so bread and water must not be free here. Make sure to check your bill. That was our mistake. Great views of the northern lights 👌

One of the best hotel in iceland. Though room is not as new but clean. Got to see northern night outside hotel

Great location on a hill, so you have the perfect view for the northernlights. Nice spaceous room and bathroom, comfortable bed, very clean. Friendly staff. Northernlights were visible from the hotelroomwindow which was great. Food in their restaurant is (as everywhere in Iceland) expensive but very delicious. They have happy hour at the bar with also a nice view. Would go back there without hesitation

I’m rating this as the best hotel we stayed at in Iceland during our 12-day trip (and just to note — we weren’t on a five-star journey!). The room was spacious, clean, comfortable, and beautifully designed, with all the necessities provided. The breakfast was great too, with plenty of variety to choose from. But what truly made our stay unforgettable was the exceptional service — especially the Aurora...

Beautiful hotel located near Myvatn. The staff was really friendly and helpful. We signed in for a aurora wake up knock and because of that we saw a few aurora. Good breakfast and dinner. We had a lake view room and it was beautiful to wake up with the sunrise and the lake in sight.

All amenities are clean and tidy. Heartwarming services like knocking door while northern lights appear, booking a lovely dinner. It's high possibility to witness aurora with good weather conditions as no light pollution here. However there are still kinda pity that no fridge inside the room. It's probably not really required because there's also hard to find supermarkets nearby, neither the laundry...

Enjoyed the hotel and the breakfast was great. Somewhat lacking basic things like a microwave and fridge but comfy enough with a nice hiking spot across the road

Great service, especially from Lucas! He helped us with navigating the hot tub and sauna, and was very kind. The free breakfast was a huge plus too. The rooms were nice and spacious, but the blankets did have a few questionable stains.

Great hotel, has everything that’s needed, great hospitality, facilities, staff, breakfast. Everything was just on point.

The room was spacious and clean, with excellent hygiene. The view from the window was beautiful, offering sights of the sunrise and numerous small volcanic craters. Check-in and parking were convenient. The front desk even asked if we'd like to be notified about the Northern Lights, which was a very thoughtful touch. That evening, I managed to capture many photos of the aurora. We heard there's a free...

Best hotel we've been to in Iceland with very helpful staff who even wake you up at night if Northern lights are showing... only hotel so far with this service. Their home-brewed beer is also excellent. Would love to come again!

Nice hotel in a good position. Very good buffet dinner, average breakfast. Nice and comfortable room with a view. Unacceptable bathroon with large shower but unusable tiny basin where you cannot fill a small bottle, nor wash your face. Kind and friendly personnel.

Very popular place to stay in Myvatn area. Very good communal kitchen. Met some very interesting fellow travellers whilst cooking dinner. Good place to stay....for sure.

I stayed in a twin room with shared facilities and had an amazing stay. The living room was cosy, the kitchen big and the shared bathroom clean. The bedroom was also spacious. Location is perfect, in between many spots of Myvtan. Would totally recommend

So far it was the best place we stayed in in Iceland. The room was confortable, the shared bathroom big and clean. The kitchen had everything you could need and the dining area was cosy, which isn't the case in many places. Would recommend!

No wifi working. Too small rooms with no enough hanging clothes, no shampoo or soap in the shoewr. Only three showers in the building only one hairdrayer. the reception is at daddys pizza but it was not specified and we had to call (we enter it first but no one paid attention to us)

The sleeping cabins have everything a tired traveler will need. Spacious and clean washrooms. Practical shared kitchen. Power points outside for those who wants to (slow) charge their cars. Minutes away from food. A perfect resting place for passing traveler.

House for Room 9-18 has only one shower and one toilet.

Wow!! One of our favorite stays in Iceland. We unfortunately got a flat driving to the hotel, and it was pouring rain, and we got delayed about 2 hours arriving to hotel taking away our only night experience- but the hotel was accommodating and checked us in no problem. The breakfast. Holy wow. The breakfast was a masterpiece!! As a hungry American in Iceland, this was beyond amazing lol portions...

Common areas are nice but the rooms are on the smaller scale. Sink in the bathroom was so tiny that it was very difficult to wash my face. Pillows were way too flat and had zero support. Breakfast was nice but same as everywhere else in Iceland. Dinner had a normal Icelandic price tag but don’t order the lasagna or mushroom soup.

The view is beautiful, the staff very friendly (and they know a lot about the area) and the breakfast is good. But the rooms are tiny and smell of eggs (especially the bathroom) and I don't like that you only get one room key. Also we weren't allowed to sit in the restaurant (only the small area next to it) because they waited for a group (they only filled 2 out of 10 tables).

Very nice hotel, pretty well situated when spending few nights in the area (and less expensive as well than others). Beautiful view over the lake and next to the craters' trail. Food is quite expensive but very good (no small portions). Our small twin bedroom was enough for us and had clean private bathroom. Breakfast was included and great!

Great stay for the value, ignore the haters. I'm a pilot and live in hotels half of my life. I stayed early June, so perhaps it was an early season rate, but for $140 USD I have no complaints. The room was small but adequate, the bathroom was clean and had newer amenities, the radiator controls worked, and the view is exceptional, especially in the restaurant. The restaurant offers a dinner items...

Not a big room, but what a view. We were lucky to have a room with a view on the lake and the sheep walking in front of our window outside. Nice breakfast and dinner, the room where you eat has a great view. Only the smell from the water in the shower wasn't pleasurable, but hey say you have this at more places in this area because of the sulfur.

Clean and comfortable room. Large modern bathroom. On site pizza restaurant.

It is a great spot to sleep, I stayed in one of the private bathroom rooms. Great views of the sunset and sunrise from the property. It is really convient checking in and out. Don't have to wait for someone to staff a desk to come or go.

Door was noicy and all sounds from corridor came in the room. Our room 25 was towards backside which was good. Rooms opposite has windows straigh to parkingplace. Aloe soap was great. Teaspoons needed that you can stir coffee. There were none. Good that you get orders how to sign in few days earlier. Not luxury, but 2 days you can stay here in mini-room. Personal was really polite.

A good little spot. Was convenient having the pizza restaurant on site. Very close to town and everything you need.

A bit outdated, but room was clean and all basic needs were available. Practical check-in and -out.

Self-service check-in and check-out with clear email instructions. Convenient location with parking available. Fully equipped with all necessary amenities. Comfortable environment, well-sized rooms, clean and bright.

2nd trip in Iceland and 2nd time staying here. There is not much choice in the area but that does not detract from the cottages. They are cozy and close to the geothermal areas, dettifoss, etc. I stayed in the new large cottage with the hot tub but it was not worth the cost, very sparse inside. If there is a 3rd time I would stay in one of the smaller cabins.

The rooms are wooden cottage, loves the exterior. The interior is a bit with ages, yet perfectly function. Had a huge window from the room, seeing Krafla, stars and aurora from the window, love it. Shared kitchen is cute and lovely. The breakfast is super nice with perfect view of myvatn. Got discounted ticket for Myvatn Bath from them and they helped for booking, yay!

Check in windows seemed to be only 1 hour. It may have been OK to arrive after the desk staff was gone, but that was not clear in our instruction. The directions made is seem like we had to arrive within a 1 hour window. All other aspects of the visit were nice.

The stay here was okay. Not bad but also not extraordinarily good.

The room size is compact but clean. Staff are friendly Breakfast is included and yummy 😋

Our lake-view ensuite mini-cabin was great for our 1 night stay at Myvatn, with sufficient parking space, clean geothermal shower and use of shared kitchen and lounge (even common BBQ grill) attached to our 4 mini-cabin cluster. We only wished there is a dustbin in our room (not just the toilet bin). Loved its quiet lakefront location with the Dimmuborgir lava fields and Hverfell crater just behind...

One of the better campsites in Iceland over our 2.5 week trip. Good views and facilities open 24/7.

We stayed in a campervan not a cottage, but this had everything we needed! It was about 5000 ISK for 2 people. We stayed in October so there were only about 4 other vans and no midges (bugs) that other people experienced. The amenities were nice and had everything we needed: showers, toilets, cooking tent. The toilets had the heat cranked inside so it was very warm. Showers are communal with no curtains

Cozy cabin with great views close to everything. Loft is kind of cramped but would work great for kids. Not sure why previous guests complain about the bugs as they must have came the wrong time of year, so that’s on them. Hardly any bugs here in mid Aug, perfect cool weather.

The interior of the house is definitely good for stay. Good design and beautiful

The hotel provides good service with helping the clothes washing. And u could easily pick up in the day. Soooo nice!

Nicely organized cottages. There is a common kitchen where guests can cook and clean after themselves. Bathrooms and showers are clean. Heaters are set to very hot temperature. We ended up opening our window for fresh air.

Staff was exceptionally nice and friendly. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Great place to see the northern lights. We had a wonderful time.

Great location for a short stay. Some restaurants near the location. The room was ok. No soundproofing between rooms.

Easy to miss the reception (it's a green building to the right, just as you drive in), but otherwise it was a good stay. Really liked the breakfast.

Best sleep we had on our trip! So good in fact that we decided to skip the included breakfast. I was curious though, so I checked out the breakfast room at 11am (an hour after breakfast closed). The very kind person working there insisted on having us have breakfast still and they were super kind! The rooms were fine, like I said, we slept very well. You can hear a lot from the neighbors, but I think...

Stayed in the bed and breakfast area. Good tidy rooms with decent bathrooms. Breakfast starts at 7am which was great with a selection of breads, meats, fruits, yogarts etc. Best part is the lack of light pollution making it a great place see the northern lights.

We stayed at the campground for two nights: very nice and quiet camping. Enough space.Nice views over Lake Myvatn. In the middle of lava fields. Very friendly staff. Good laundry service: you leave your laundry at the reception and the next morning you pick up the clean and dry laundry. Hot showers included. Only disadvantage is that there is no covered area for washing your dishes. They have a large...

We got stuck in some bad weather, and ran into some closed roads, and were going to arrive after check in time. However, some wonderful person at Eldá responded to my text immediately and let me know they would save my room keys and check in info on the desk for me! The people at Eldá are incredibly nice, helpful and professional. Plus the room and amenities are wonderful!

We stayed here as part of our ring roadtrip. The place is cost effective. The walls were very thin and we had a group of Spanish guests who were very lound in the same area but besides that, the place was warm and had a kitchen and very accessible.

Nice clean rooms with a great breakfast in the morning. Stayed 2 nights. We stayed in the building next door and there are 2 rooms that share a kitchen, bath & shower. Overall we were very satisfied and really lied the breakfast they had.

My husband and I stayed at Elda Guesthouse during our Myvatn stop while doing the Ring Road. We arrived quite late and were placed in the extension building, not the red main house shown in the booking profile. The foyer was muddy with shoes scattered everywhere, which was fine, but when we got to the kitchen, it was overflowing with food and the fridge was full, leaving no space for our own stuff...

Nice, big apartment with all forniture

Nice stay of 1 night Quite central for Lake Mývatn with petrol pump supermarket at walking distance. Quite a spacious apartment with 2 separate bedrooms and a living area and a good kitchen. Early check in offered for no additional cost.

A very nice place. The rooms have both private and shared bathrooms. The food is very tasty. The rooms are clean. I just wish guests would clean up after themselves, for example, after making meals, because they make a mess.

It's a very nice guesthouse. They have a well-equipped kitchen, a shared bathroom and toilet, and an ice cream shop. 5/5, will recommend to my friends. They also have a laundry service.

Very cozy! The breakfast buffet's smoked trout was yummy. The view from the kitchen is awesome. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a simple meal. The staff members were very kind. Although, I'd like to point out one thing. There was this smell in my room that smelled like an old apartment. Everything else: GREAT!

Such a cozy and welcoming stay! This guesthouse, set on a farm, offers a truly unique experience. We stayed in a family room, which was warm, clean, and very comfortable. The views from the property were absolutely breathtaking—like a painting come to life! One of the highlights was getting to see the farm animals up close. Guests have the chance to watch the cows being milked daily, which made breakfast...

Nice cozy farmstay. The room was nice and clean but with no kitchen. However breakfast was available. The breakfast was well stocked with a good choice of food. The staff well constantly check on the food to ensure the plates were no empty. There was horses nearby and we managed to get up close to some horses.

The room is spacious, clean, and quiet. You can see the horses through the window. The bed was comfortable, but the pillows were hard. The breakfast was good; I liked the tomatoes and cucumbers. We stayed here for two nights, and the staff were very friendly.

Hotel room was good for the night. This space was very clean and close by to the town. The heated floors are a nice touch. Last minute we decided to try the breakfast buffet. For the price you t might be better to get some pastries or a sandwich at the local gas station as the selection of food was very limited.

This adorable restaurant is set in the most idyllic location on a working farm, with gorgeous views of Lake Mývatn. It’s a must-visit for us whenever we are anywhere near North Iceland. Tucked inside a cozy converted cowshed (which is exactly as charming as it sounds), the restaurant specializes in fresh, farm-to-table, homemade local food, including smoked lamb, smoked trout, homemade cheese, homemade...

After almost 10 years of living nearby went there for the first time with my son. It is very lovely restaurant on the country side with amazing views and cows which were visible through the window. It is also possible to go inside the cows barn and pet them. Altough my son was to affraid to pet them I find this experience super good. The food and service also top class. One of the best lamb I have...

A lovely stay. Big yet cozy room. We also had dinner there, everything was terrific - even the arctic char was something special. And we got to see the northern lights.

A lovely stay. Big yet cozy room, spacey for iceland standard. The food is very good - very generous breakfast spread. We also had dinner there, everything was terrific - even the arctic char! The smoked Lamb was something special 🥰

Went for some food at the restaurant. Everything came out quickly and was delicious. The menu had enough options for any person eating there. We got the beef burger, thr vogafós Special, and a happy marriage cake. All items for the special was light and delicious. The salad is made with kale. There is a little gift shop there. The wool is really nicely made. And you can go in and see the cows on their...

It’s beyond our expectation

The service was excellent, the rooms were clean, the breakfast was good, and parking was convenient.

The place was very clean, and it was easy to check-in. The kitchen was big and well furnished, but got a bit disappointed seeing there wasn’t cooking oil, salt or pepper. The bunk beds were comfortable enough, but the lack of privacy curtains was a bit off putting. I got to sleep in my room alone, so it’s not too bad, but I wouldn’t like having strangers come and go and just see me sleep. Finally...

Great kitchen area for hostel. Well stocked and lots of space to cook and eat.

Loved the dining room! But not the flies ;)

The room with two bunk-beds was very small for four people. It was hot, stuffy and poorly soundproofed. We spent three nights there and EVERY night there was quite a big fat spider on the ceiling. First night - spider has rappelled on the head of our son. He awoke, saw the spider above his face and awoke all of us. Second night - daughter saw spider rappelled from the ceiling on the side around 4am...
