The property is gorgeous and well-maintained. The lady who assisted me when I arrived at the hotel was impolite and provided poor service. I had to return to the registration desk after being allocated my room, and there was someone else there who was really friendly and attentive. The smell of food from the kitchen permeates all of the rooms on the right side of the property, and all of my garments smelled like food. The restaurant is neither the finest nor the worst; it is simply ok, but there are no other options available artound. The best thing about this location is the facilities, which are nicely maintained. Aside from that rude lady, everyone else was really nice and attentive.

Absolutely Gorgeous Hotel
We loved this hotel, and the fact that it was nestled away from everything in the area. We were upgraded to an ocean room on-site, the restaurant, while expense, was delicious, the room was comfortable, and had everything we needed. Breakfast had a variety of options and the staff was friendly, too. Our own downside was that the shower was a bit small and had an all-in-one body wash/shampoo. That wouldn't stop us from staying again; we'd just bring our own next time. Out of all of the hotels on our 10-day trip, this one is definitely in our top 3 favorites.

There are no places to dine in the area other than the hotel. They are quite pushy to get you to eat dinner and breakfast there. There are no facilities to prepare your own food which is quite frustrating and shocking because everywhere else we’ve stayed has options. They have signs in the room telling you to not cook or else you’ll be fined. For the price you pay they really need to accommodate all kinds of travellers. You’re not going to be able to stop people from preparing their own food so help accommodate them. I don’t want to spend 7000 on some beef and potatoes. Overall check in was easy. Wish there was easy access from the outside because our room was down stairs and it was difficult to carry luggage down there. Room was a decent size wish it was a little bigger, and bathroom had a heated flood which was nice. Overall found it overpriced for what it was but it was a decent stay.

A good hotel, if quite a ways from any other location with amenities. You'll want a car for pretty much everything in the region.

We stayed in 8 different hotels during our trip to Iceland and Fosshotel Hellnar was probably our favorite. Great location, comfortable rooms, and the staff was super friendly and accommodating. We would definitely return to this hotel.
