Guesthouse Skógafoss, hotel in Skogar

Located in Skogar, 1969 feet from Skogafoss Waterfall, Guest house Skógafoss provides accommodations with free WiFi and free private parking. Access to a kitchen is available for guests.

Great location just under a km from Skogafoss waterfall. Very convenient if you like to enjoy the waterfall in the early morning or at night (photography). Private entrance and private bathroom for the single room. Nice shared kitchen with all amenities. Single room is very small, but serves its purpose perfectly. Host even left a small heater in case I needed it for the cold night. Would stay again.

Beautiful location not far from the ring road. Convenient parking right in front of the guesthouse. Stayed in a spacious 2nd floor room with 3 beds plus a day bed/couch and private bathroom. A quiet nights stay. The included breakfast was amazing! Big selection of food to suit anyone's taste I imagine. Enjoyed a walk down the road first thing in the morning to do a little birding.

    Skogafoss is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the world, impressively large, and if there is even a little bit of sunshine, there will be a rain bow in front of the falls. The town of Skogar includes a noteworthy folk history museum.

    Great place to stop at while driving to Vik!

    Great place to stop at while driving to Vik! There are many things to see and do and endless hiking paths to follow. A few waterfalls around including Kvernufoss, which was amazingly hidden, but very near the Skogar Museum. The museum offers a variety of exhibits on history of the area ( outside part including turf houses), but also technical part - really amazing and great thing to do when the weather is not promising. We stayed at hotel Skogafoss and we had a real blast there! Highly recommended due to facilities and service alike. There is a Eyjafjallajökull visitor centre, right below the volcano- unfortunately closed during winter season. We drove and walked to Seljavallalaug hot spring natural pool, where you can swim, however water is quite cold. The surroundings is beautiful though. Further south you can drive towards Dyrhólaey and Reynisfjara/Black beach. We loved Skogar area very much and had amazing time at different spots around.

    The hotel is located very close from the waterfall. The waterfall is spectacular! I recommend to go all the way up the stairs and walk around the trail and enjoy the marvelous view. It is a quiet and small town with very friendly people 😀

    The waterfall is the highlight, and if you have time, you should walk a bit further on the trail above it. It’s a beautiful hike. The folk museum is amazing, sounds corny, but it’s really good. It has an excellent cafe too. Area is close to Vik and the black sand beaches. The bistro at hotel Skogafoss is consistent and the food is good and reasonably priced for Iceland. Sadly the ‘secret’ waterfall now has a highway trodden too it and lots of erosion on site as people have climbed all over the grass outposts and killed all the vegetation.

    Located under the dramatic waterfall, near the Skogar Museum, and only about 10-20 miles from the beaches at Vik, Hotel Skoga is clean, efficient and well located. The morning staff are polite, hospitable, and helpful. They speak English fluently as well as Polish and maybe other languages. The breakfast was plentiful, the hot tub clean and a sauna is available. The hotel check-ibis self service and easy to use. The hot coffee/water dispenser is marvelous, too! We loved our stay.

    Self-check in easy and straightforward. Staff were very nice and super apologetic about our first room being dirty (see below). The bed in our second room we were given was very comfortable. Breakfast in the morning was delicious and had a really big variety of foods to eat, staff were on top of replenishing food that had run out. Location was great, a 2min drive from Skogafoss.

    The location of Kverna Guesthouse was awesome! Walkable distance from Skogafoss! The staff were very friendly and accomodating. The breakfast was good, and there were a lot of options that we hadn’t seen before such as beans, cooked sausage, scrambled eggs, and egg patties, along with the usual goodies such as juices, coffee, cereal, yogurt, jams, toast, and meats and cheeses.

    Our room was not so big but clean. Also, at that moment we seems to be the only guests and the staff proposed to bring special breakfast for us or have it in their other hotel even closer to Skogafoss, that was super nice:) and breakfast was delicious! The most satisfying I assume is location, almost at Skogafoss waterfall!

    The hotel is in a great location if you’re planning to hike or visit Skogar and the area attractions closer to Vik. The restaurant is excellent. The couple running the hotel, Jakub and Anna, went out of their way to help facilitate our somewhat complicated hiking plans.

    The view from the back porch of this guesthouse was amazing! You could see Skogafoss waterfall, which was just a minute drive from this location. The guesthouse was clean and the kitchen came with all the basic amenities one would need. We would 100% stay here again!

    This hostel for children in an outdoor school is located about 1 km from the Skógarfoss waterfall. The staff was very kind and helpful. He brought us a replacement heater after midnight, as the radiator was not working. There was a rich and tasty breakfast.

    Very spacious. I like that the kitchen has a separate door so any noise or coffee smell did not disturb people in bedrooms. Beautiful view. Short walk to waterfall and hike and restaurant.
