Skogafoss is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the world, impressively large, and if there is even a little bit of sunshine, there will be a rain bow in front of the falls. The town of Skogar includes a noteworthy folk history museum.

Great place to stop at while driving to Vik!
Great place to stop at while driving to Vik! There are many things to see and do and endless hiking paths to follow. A few waterfalls around including Kvernufoss, which was amazingly hidden, but very near the Skogar Museum. The museum offers a variety of exhibits on history of the area ( outside part including turf houses), but also technical part - really amazing and great thing to do when the weather is not promising. We stayed at hotel Skogafoss and we had a real blast there! Highly recommended due to facilities and service alike. There is a Eyjafjallajökull visitor centre, right below the volcano- unfortunately closed during winter season. We drove and walked to Seljavallalaug hot spring natural pool, where you can swim, however water is quite cold. The surroundings is beautiful though. Further south you can drive towards Dyrhólaey and Reynisfjara/Black beach. We loved Skogar area very much and had amazing time at different spots around.

The hotel is located very close from the waterfall.
The waterfall is spectacular!
I recommend to go all the way up the stairs and walk around the trail and enjoy the marvelous view.
It is a quiet and small town with very friendly people 😀

The waterfall is the highlight, and if you have time, you should walk a bit further on the trail above it. It’s a beautiful hike.
The folk museum is amazing, sounds corny, but it’s really good. It has an excellent cafe too.
Area is close to Vik and the black sand beaches.
The bistro at hotel Skogafoss is consistent and the food is good and reasonably priced for Iceland.
Sadly the ‘secret’ waterfall now has a highway trodden too it and lots of erosion on site as people have climbed all over the grass outposts and killed all the vegetation.
Laura was pleasant at the front desk. The room was fine-comfortable bed, lots of room to spread out. The best thing about this hotel is the location. You are a five minute walk to Skogafoss, but we felt it was very overpriced. The hotel itself is standard, nothing extravagant. The restaurant had very good food and was reasonably priced. The servers were very kind and professional. The free parking was also a nice perk. We did not have a view of the falls, but it was still very expensive. I guess you pay for the location.
I was there in June, it was raining so we were looking for place with the heater to dry our clothes. The heating was working very good! The room was very clean and it had the sink, shower was at the corridor but wasn't busy. The place is located few hundred meters from beautiful Skogafoss. The breakfast was modest but still good to have within the price! I really recommend the place! I loved the field with sheeps next to the hotel.
Self-check in easy and straightforward. Staff were very nice and super apologetic about our first room being dirty (see below). The bed in our second room we were given was very comfortable. Breakfast in the morning was delicious and had a really big variety of foods to eat, staff were on top of replenishing food that had run out. Location was great, a 2min drive from Skogafoss.
The location of Kverna Guesthouse was awesome! Walkable distance from Skogafoss! The staff were very friendly and accomodating. The breakfast was good, and there were a lot of options that we hadn’t seen before such as beans, cooked sausage, scrambled eggs, and egg patties, along with the usual goodies such as juices, coffee, cereal, yogurt, jams, toast, and meats and cheeses.
There is a lot good to be said about Umi. The biggest is the location and view. If you are planning a trip east or west, it is a great destination after a gold circle day or when you come from the glacier lagoon, before you embark on the golden circle. Views are great; the dinner restaurant serves excellent food and the breakfast is sumptuous for a great start into the day.
what a nice apartment. we took a large apartment that is part of the hotel. We had view of the waterfall which was exceptional. we arrived later in the afternoon and were sorry we didnt arrive earlier to enjoy that stay. we had a hot tub and very large rooms with 2 toilets which is always good to have. the hotel also has a GREAT restaurant. great place to stay at
The location was amazing. The host was super friendly. The room was comfortable.
The kitchen had everything needed, along with a great view.
We were able to walk to Skógafoss and to another nearby waterfall. It was not a bad drive to Vik for a visit to the beach.
Overall, I would stay here again.
The view from the back porch of this guesthouse was amazing! You could see Skogafoss waterfall, which was just a minute drive from this location. The guesthouse was clean and the kitchen came with all the basic amenities one would need. We would 100% stay here again!
Self contained apartment with large foyer, two large bedrooms, kitchen and bathroom. Loved the little boot heater/dryer. View was fantastic. Menus of local restaurants in foyer. Bathroom had heated towel racks.
Hotel Drangshlid is conveniently just off route 1 in a very quiet, scenic location. Our room was clean and comfortable and the restaurant was nice. The included breakfast was ok.
The hotel is in a great location close to the Skogafoss waterfall. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the breakfast was excellent. The staff at breakfast were friendly.
