The cozy self check in Hotel Skoga is just 5 minutes walk from the spectacular Skogafoss Waterfall situated at the foot of the Eyjafjallajökull glacier.

The location was amazing, so close to the Skogafoss waterfall. Our rooms were comfortable and well stocked with clean towels and a gown incase we wanted to use the hot tub.
The beds were very comfortable.
It’s a self check in hotel and the key code access worked smoothly for the outer door but only one of our rooms. We called Hotel Skogafoss (as instructed) and the staff answered the phone promptly and solved the problem easily.
Complimentary hot drinks were available in the reception are which was a very welcome touch.
Breakfast was a good selection and the staff helpful, cooking more eggs and bacon on request as guests arrived to eat. There was homemade bread.
We ate a good dinner at the nearby Hotel Skogafoss.
Located within a 7-minute of Rutshellir Caves, Hotel Drangshlid is just 4 km from Skogafoss in South Iceland. The property offers free WiFi and the staff can organize horseback riding and jeep tours.

Nice parking area. It's really lucky to watch Aurora just outside the accommodation.
We could use a coffee (hot water, hot chocolate) machine in the dining area, even at night. Everything was so convenient.
Featuring a lounge and views toward Eyjafjallajökull, Umi Hotel is located at the foot the famous volcano in South Iceland. It features a terrace and views of the sea.

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.
I was there in June, it was raining so we were looking for place with the heater to dry our clothes. The heating was working very good! The room was very clean and it had the sink, shower was at the corridor but wasn't busy. The place is located few hundred meters from beautiful Skogafoss. The breakfast was modest but still good to have within the price! I really recommend the place! I loved the field with sheeps next to the hotel.
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.
Place is super clean and very well kept. Kitchen very equiped. Nice views from every side of the house. 2 shared bathrooms for 5 rooms which is very good. Perfect location, next to Skogafoss. Bus stop very close by. Restaurant close by. I HIGHLY recommend this place.
Great location, walking distance to a black beach, good restaurant with extensive wine list, nice staff, smiling and efficient everywhere, restaurant, reception, bar. Rooms are comfortable with nice views on the wild land , really in the middle of the nature.
The breakfast is super and the location of the hotel is great, very close to Skogafoss waterfall. We liked the hot tub. There are two reception room on each floor and one has a TV and coffee machine( has to pay for coffee~) inside.
Room was very spacious and the bed was decently comfortable. Coffee and tea available outside the rooms. There is a possibility to have dinner at the restaurant in the main building and the burger we took was very good.
We biked to Skogar from Landmannalaugur. This was our first night not staying in a hut. Bed was comfortable, It was clean, nice bathroom and shower. Easy access from the end of the trail and the waterfall.
Good location near Skogafoss and Vik. Our room was large with a sofa seating area and a nice large window wall. The hotel breakfast was decent, the toaster was excellent.
Convenient location for access to Skogafoss, literally a few minutes walk away. We had a very nice meal at the restaraunt within the main (affiliated?) Hotel Skogafoss.
Big bedroom and bathroom. Restaurant in hotel was great with views of the falls. We walked over to the falls after dinner and had the place to ourselves.
