We loved getting the wake-up call to go outside and see the Northern Lights. The hot tubs were also very enjoyable with free robe use from the front desk. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The only restaurant open in town was the one in the hotel. Visitted in mid-January. Limited menu, but the food was beautifully plated and delicious.
This hotel is quietly located 1.2 mi from Lake Mývatn and 30 minutes’ drive from the Godafoss Waterfall and Krafla Crater. It offers free Wi-Fi and rooms with modern furnishings.

We really enjoyed our stay. While the room was small, we didn’t need anything more. It was spotlessly clean and had a nice bathroom with excellent hot water for showers. The views from our room and common areas were vast and stunning. Breakfast was really good each day. Staff were very kind and helpful. The northern lights wake up call is such a great perk! They knocked on our door to alert us to the lights, allowing us to relax but also see the aurora for the first time ever- very exciting and a beautiful experience! The location was convenient for visiting so many sights in the area. We would definitely stay again.
Located by Lake Myvatn, this hotel offers WiFi . All rooms feature a TV and private bathroom. Skútustaðagígar natural site is 2 minutes’ walk away.

Radiant heated floors in the bathroom was incredible. Staff was very accommodating and very social. Food was exceptional. Given the date we booked, we were actually the only guests in the hotel which I understand is HIGHLY unusual (apparently few travelers drive Northern Iceland in the winter we are from the Midwest USA so we decided to do it anyway). Hotel has a hot tub, that we of course made use of, they gave us robes and sandals. Breakfast in the morning was incredible. I can simply say this place was exceptional and we plan to stay here on our next visit.
Set on Lake Myvatn’s northern shore, this property is 5 minutes’ drive from Myvatn Nature Baths. On-site facilities include a communal kitchen, small convenience store and bicycle rental.

I’m 2/3 of circumnavigating Iceland, and I have to say that this area is the weirdest landscape yet—in a good way. In a small area there are extinct volcanoes, steaming hillsides, lakes with strange lava 'islands', ethereal mountains…….. so strange. So beautiful. Highly recommended.

Spent a day and a half in the Lake Mývatn area. Loved it.
Spent a day and a half in the Lake Mývatn area. Loved it. There is so much to see and do: crater hikes, thermal baths, geothermal areas, bird watching, lava features. And just overall, it has beautiful views of farms and countryside. Both relaxing and exciting. Could easily spent another couple of days without it feeling repetitive.

A "must-visit" bird-watching location in northern Iceland, with great scenery and impressive geo-thermal sites near by. Lots of way-marked walking routes around the lake and several places to get food and shopping.

It's a beautiful lava field and lake system.
It's a beautiful lava field and lake system. Old volcanos and lava flows. Dimmuborgir is a legendary place where the Yule Lads sleep through the summer. Bear in mind that the summer can have hatches of midges.
Krafla Power Station, active geothermal mud pools, Mývatn Nature Baths.
If you travel in the winter it's a great place to see the Aurora as practically no light pollution.
Obviously it's not as nice as Akureyri, but I would say that as I live there

Myvatn Lake certainly has beautiful scenery and the weather is typically warmer than the coast. For the full service/hotel travelers I would recommend Fosshotel. For campers there is plenty of accommodations.

We were very satisfied with the hotel. It had a beautiful design. Even the shower corner was tiled so well that no water leaked into the bathroom! The stunning views of the lake with grazing sheep complemented this beautiful hotel design. The staff was very friendly, and we especially appreciated the excellent chef – the food was truly delicious
Very stylish hotel. EV-charging stations unblocked and for free. Situated next to the lake (Myvatn). Staff at reception was very nice. We took dinner and it was fancy and very good. Breakfast was ok for (high) islandic levels. Someone could make his own waffles which is nice if you like it.
The hotel is new, stylish, very clean. The room was comfortable.
The staff was very nice and the breakfast was the best I had in 7 days of Iceland.
Coffee capsules and coffee machine in the room was a plus for an Italian craving for a good espresso.
Superb hotel. Go for it if you are looking for a stay in Myvatn area. Great rooms and fantastic staff. Opt for dinner. We enjoyed dinner as well as breakfast next morning. We also spotted Aurora from this stay.
