Fosshotel Vatnajokull

Commanding spectacular panoramic views of the Vatnajokull glacier behind and the southeastern plains in front, the Fosshotel has been beautifully designed with a minimal Scandinavian feel that places an emphasis on the area’s majestic natural surroundings.

Inside you’ll find open airy spaces with plenty of wood and glass and 66 comfortable and bright guestrooms. After a day out exploring the rugged terrain, you can look forward to a hearty and traditional meal in the restaurant followed by an evening swapping stories in the well stocked bar.

You’ll find the hotel at the foot of the Vatnajokull glacier itself, the largest in Europe, and the Jokulsarlon ice lagoon is also very close by. Guided hiking trips to Skaftafell National Park are available through the hotel.
