Reviews of Fosshotel Hekla

- the location was very good for sightseeing - the staff was very friendly - good breakfast with good times - good dinner with good fish - can hear the sound of the neighboor rooms very loud - the room was clean

We spent one night here after a long day of travel arriving in Iceland and sightseeing on the Golden Circle. The hotel is located in the country 25 minutes north of Selfoss. The interior was a bit dated with some carpet that needs to be replaced. But this hotel has 2 nice hot tubs and a sauna. We ate dinner and breakfast here as we were tired and far from town. Both meals were excellent. Our dinner had perfected cooked Cod. There were many delicious choices at breakfast. Service was excellent at the front desk and the restaurant. Our room was ample and comfortable and quiet.

Great touring base. Rooms need an upgrade but it was comfortable and everything worked well. No complaints just a bit basic. Food was great if a tad pricey. The location was good for touring south Iceland

FH Hekla is a short distance off Iceland's Ring Road on Route 30 and 20km from Flúðir. It is a great location for accessing the Golden Circle of "must-see" sights without joining traffic queues from Reykjavik. The hotel is in the countryside and we had a wonderful showing of the aurora borealis on one of the nights we stayed. The hotel is relaxed and informal, with a comfortable bar and good breakfast. The evening menu is small but the dishes were excellent. We had suites, which comprised large bedrooms, a large sitting room with sofa and TV, and a good size bathroom. Fixtures and fittings were not fancy, but functional. Staff were really helpful, from advice of seeing the Aurora to clearing up split milk!

Our experience was fantastic. The location is perfect to visit the Golden Circle. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed the hot tube looking at the Hekla volcano. We strongly recommend this hotel

Very basic hotel. Bathroom was quite dated. Beds and pillows were comfortable and it was very quiet in our room. Employee who checked us in did not tell us it would have been easier to drive our car around to the entrance nearest to our room so we drug our suitcases a long way over quite a few small staircases. It was acceptable for one night but would not stay again.

Good but no "wauw"-feeling ; we appreciated the hot tub after the many km we had done that day ; hotel is dated but clean. Because the hotel is located in nature without restaurants nearby, we stayed for dinner. Once again : it was good but no "wauw"-feeling.

We stayed for one night and it was a very pleasant experience. Very good breakfast, room and cleaning ok and the staff were friendly and helpful. Nice location in the middle of the countryside with icelandic horses around.

We loved this one night we stayed here - among wide views to the mountains, horses, birds and the sky. Such a lovely quiet spot. We also had a great chill out in the hot tub and sauna, some nice dinner and breakfast - and the receptionist was super helpful, and made a booking for us at a horseback-riding farm nearby.

We had a one night stay. The room was comfy enough but duvets and pillows could be more luxurious. Hot tub ok but a bit too far from the hotel and a little tatty. The food was very good, breakfast was delicious

Chose the suite, room is in dire need of tlc. Smell from bathroom, shabby and the room was too hot on a sunny day with no fans available. Great staff! Good location. Breakfast was fine but sticky tables and unclean cups and forks.

Nice surroundings but we had a room right under the kitches. It was noicy early in the Morning (the kitchen staff was wearing shoes with High heles) and late in the evening because of the noice from the dishwasher. The room was oldfashioned, dirty and with only a little daylight. The Food in the restaurant delicius and very Nice staff all over the hotel

We stayed 3 nights here as a base to visit the golden circle and surrounding area. The staff were friendly and helpful and the rooms were clean. However the decor and presentation of the rooms and bathrooms were very dated and tired. Thin curtains were not much help with the almost constant daylight in June. English tv channels available and tea and coffee making facilities and fridge in the room (ask at the bar for milk for tea). Extensive buffet breakfast and lovely views from the restaurant. We didn’t sample the evening menu. Outdoor hot tubs were fun but the surrounding area was also in need of maintenance.

4 night stay. The location was perfect for exploring the golden circle and the south coast. It is quiet and the hot tubs are nice at the end of the day. The food gets 5 stars and the scramble egg is the best we have ever had. The evening menu is a bit limited with only a choice of 4 main dishes but the quality of the dishes is fantastic. The rooms are clean and serviced daily though they are getting dated. Our major issue in this modern tech age with 3 of us in a family room was the lack of power points for charging the multiple electronic devices we all have.
