10/10 Excellent
"Probably the best hotel in Iceland. Service is better than some of the 4,5 stars hotels (Hyatt, Hilton, Marriott) that we have stayed at. The room was clean and modern. The amenities were adequate and breakfast (included) was delicious. Highly recommend it."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Skaftárhreppur?
The best area to stay in Skaftárhreppur is generally near Kirkjubæjarklaustur, which serves as the primary service center for the region.

This small village is conveniently located along the Ring Road (Route 1) and offers the most concentrated selection of accommodations, dining options, and essential services like a gas station and a small supermarket. It's also a central point for accessing many natural attractions in the area, such as the Fjaðrárgljúfur canyon and the Kirkjugólfið basalt columns.

For couples or solo travelers seeking a convenient base for exploring the stunning natural landscapes of Southern Iceland, staying in or very close to Kirkjubæjarklaustur is ideal.
When is the best time to go to Skaftárhreppur?
The best times to visit Skaftárhreppur are during the summer months (June to August) for mild weather and long daylight hours, or the shoulder seasons (May and September) for fewer crowds and good conditions.

For travelers prioritizing outdoor activities and extended daylight, the summer is ideal. You'll experience nearly 24 hours of daylight, allowing for ample time to explore the Laki Craters and Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon without rushing. The temperatures are at their warmest, typically ranging from 10°C to 15°C (50°F to 59°F), making hiking and sightseeing comfortable.

Couples looking for a balance of pleasant weather and fewer visitors might prefer the shoulder seasons of May or September. The daylight hours are still generous, and while the weather can be a bit cooler, you'll find a more tranquil experience at popular sites.
