Great location, across the street is Godafoss, and then you can be there in the early morning or evening and see it without many tourists. The hotel is nice, we were in the separate building; all clean, and spacious, not modern, but functional. The breakfast is excellent.

Great service, especially the hotel manager, she was fantastic! At nightime, during the midnight sun, when all the tour buses and travelers are gone,you have the whole waterfall to yourself. It is was my favorite waterfall in Iceland. The food is good, the beds are clean, spend at least two nights there to truely enjoy the area.

Everything was good expect that they didn’t have a microwave. It sort of forces people to eat from thier restaurant. There is a Icd wear store next to the hotel where you can get hotdogs though.

We had a wonderful stay at the hotel—everything was perfect from start to finish. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and the service was truly outstanding. Every member of the staff was kind and helpful, but I especially want to thank Francisco for going above and beyond. His warmth, attentiveness, and care made our experience even more special. Thank you for making us feel so well taken care of!

Amazing property, staff, and food facing the Godafoss waterfall. Couldn’t ask for a better location. You can have the falls all to yourself early morning or late evening.

Absolutely loved our stay at Godafoss hotel! The rooms were clean, perfect, and up to date! Had a cute view of the garden. The food was also so perfect. It tasted like a home cooked meal and was so fresh! And of course the super quick walk to the falls were a plus! Thank you Godafoss Hotel!

A little gem. This property is walking distance to Godafoss, a spectacular horseshoe falls in Iceland. You can even see parts of the falls from the lobby. While so close to the water, you can barely hear the falls and river. A great night sleep. Hotel And restaurant are managed by a friendly and efficient staff. Rooms seem recently renovated, very clean and efficient. The property gives a “cabin” or “chalet” vibe. We had dinner in the restaurant. Food was good, however for dinner they would benefit from a larger selection and a couple higher end choices. Overall a great place to stay for one or multiple nights.
