“Beautiful boutique manor house”
A beautiful boutique rustic manor house set in the Iceland countryside. Hot tub is fantastic after an intense day of walking. Rooms are beautifully styled and appointed. Located around many incredible sights in the area (Skogafoss is 20 mins away). Staff are extremely helpful and kind. There is a lift for luggage.

“Great choice for rustic hotel lovers”
My wife loves rustic houses full of character, and you definitely get that feel at Skalakot. The rooms are large. Nice breakfast. We had the spa to ourselves.

“Wonderful hotel, great service in an excellent location!”
We loved Skálakot Manor Hotel it was an wonderful hotel in a fantastic location. Not to far from the Golden Circle but close to the many waterfalls, Vik and the Black Sand Beaches. We went to the Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach from there, which was amazing. The little spa area was lovely to relax in after a busy day, it's free for hotel guests no need to prebook unless you want it privately. We wish we'd had another day there to explore the area more, you could do lots of glacier tours from Vik and horseriding in the hotel. The dinner was delicious, great veggie options too! The staff were friendly and welcoming and the dogs were gorgeous too, thank you for a fabulous stay!

Far and away the best place we stayed in Iceland (and we stayed in some nice places!) This gorgeous, family-run manor house was full of charm and coziness -- truly nothing anodyne about it. The staff was so lovely and the food was phenomenal. We would return to southern Iceland just to stay here again.
