“Just right for a simple, cozy night in Skogar.”
Our family of four found Fosstun Guest House just right for a simple, cozy night in Skogar. It’s very clean, the beds are comfortable, the kitchen is sufficient to cook or bake and coffee and tea are provided. It feels like staying in a mother-in-law apartment. The bathroom was surprisingly delightful. It’s small but the space is perfectly used, there is a heated towel bar, and the shower is big for the size of the bathroom. The hostess is sweet and available for questions when you have any. Bonus: view of loads of Icelandic sheep from the kitchen window!

A warm place where to rest after a long day exploring. Everything was clean and the bedrooms spacious. You can see Skogafoss directly from the property, amazing view! Inga and her husband live in the apartment nextdoor and are both really kind.

Good location just off the ring road and close to the waterfall in Skógar. Comfortable beds. Bedrooms were good sizes. Kitchenette and bathroom were adequate but both very tiny.

“lovely guesthouse host”
very close to Skogafoss with a fish n chips van just next door. Inga was very accommodating. changed our leaking kettle immediately and got a new set of knives for us. She also went through the trouble of finding our earphones which we left behind by accident and making sure it was sent to Reykjavik before our flight
