We didn’t see the Northern Lights which was why we chose Husafell initially, but obviously that’s nowhere near a given and we are so glad we found Husafell anyway as we had a lovely stay and booked on to some tours that ended up being the highlights of our trip - the glacier tour, the lava cave and the canyon baths were all incredible experiences!

Beautiful location with breathtaking views every time you look out of the window. Felt very tranquil and relaxing as it’s so isolated. Lovely food in the restaurant and a modern, spacious room. Very friendly & helpful staff on reception and in the restaurant. Great tours to be booked through the hotel and lovely to have the geothermal pools on site. The canyon baths were a particular highlight, a wonderful experience & not to be missed!

We had a fabulously gorgeous dinner at Hotel Husafell, and nice cocktail for happy hour. Dinner was memorable and the scenery is gorgeous. Stayed just one night but had a great stay.

Hotel was located in a stunning location, we drove to nearby lava cave and it was amazing. We eat at the restaurant on site and it was one of the best meals we had during our trip! Will definitely come back to stay and do the ice caves nearby.

Staff was very helpful, nice and easy to communicate with. The service in the swimming pool was excellent, you can order drinks and they service them to the pool for you. The surroundings are beautiful and you have a view to the mountains from all areas of the hotel. I have been going to Húsafell for over 40 years but htis was my first stay at the hotel and I will be back

Because the hotel is in the middle of nowhere, the local family has a monopoly on almost all services and activities in the town. While dinner was very tasty, it was even more expensive. They were also the only restaurant/food option in a 30-40 minute drive. While the hotel and food were very nice, I wouldn’t categorize them as “luxurious” equivalent to the prices you’re paying. Just understand you’re paying for the logistics of running a hotel away from the supply chain.

This property is sat squarely in the wilderness of Iceland; excellent for hiking, chasing northern lights, and seeking peacefulness. Limited other tourists who mostly kept to themselves. Staff were incredibly kind, happy, and helpful. Dinner was tasty with a creative chef. Breakfast included with room, one of the best breakfasts I’ve had traveling with fresh fruits and veggies. We used the wake-up call service to catch the Northern Lights around midnight, a pleasant surprise given the cloudy rain day and pessimistic Aurora forecast.

Hotel pool and hot springs aren't included in the price of the stay, a small but annoying thing Hotel restaurant's dinner menu is very small, after a few nights you've had everything and there's nowhere else close by to try Would be great to have a smart TV in the room for YouTube etc, only had local channels There was no power or water for several hours one morning, and very little communication on what had happened or when it might be fixed. Could not have a hot breakfast or coffee that morning and there was no follow up or apology later

Beautiful location, we were able to see the Northern lights several nights in a row Able to travel to several nearby sites or arrange pickup from the hotel for activities Nice rooms and friendly staff Breakfast was good with lots of variety

The facilities are clean and well designed for comfort and simplicity. The room was on the smaller side but again comfortable and the bathrooms/showers were very nice. The surrounding property is beautiful, which you get an excellent view of from the rooms as well as the fantastic hotel restaurant. The food was really elevated and clearly locally sourced. The breakfast was great as well. We also did the tour of the canyon baths which was incredible and I would highly recommend. While anyone might enjoy a stay here, I would particularly recommend it to couples looking for a romantic experience just a couple of hours outside of Reykjavik.

Bed could be more comfortable :)

Alarm for northern light was awesome. I could see it thought the weather was not good.

Everything was perfect.

The only thing that wasn't so great was on our last night we had very noisy neighbours, but we didn't notice it any other night, so probably just the loud Americans ha! Also a little expensive to eat and go on tours, but it's worth it for a good holiday!

We loved our stay here! As a coeliac vegetarian it is often hard to eat abroad, but the staff here catered to me exceptionally. I had a different meal all three nights and was made toast for breakfast. If you don't have my allergies, the breakfast buffet is definitely worth it. Lovely location, we had a car so could get out and about, but spent most evenings at the hotel as it's so nice. All staff were friendly and helpful. Rooms very clean!

The breakfast menu the same every day and restaurant menu too poor in choices but what it is in menu is very good, very tasty and nice find dining, maybe because it was soo good I wanted to try more quality dinners/lunch from them. Over all for 4/5 days is a great place. The pool also is great, warm and nice view from there.

The beds were a bit hard. Not a dislike - but the location is remote - a good 45 minute drive from the nearest town of size. It is what we were looking for, but if it isn't what you want, it can feel isolating, particularly in winter.

The staff were exceptional - doing everything they could to make sure we were comfortable - including holding breakfast open a few more minutes when jet lag meant we overslept. Oliver in the restaurant made sure we had a delightful experience including making special meals for my husband's birthday. Clara at the front desk was extremely helpful in getting us set up for our various excursions and hikes. One of the most relaxing trips and about the most well-cared for I've been in a hotel.

A notable downside was the exclusion of the geothermal pools from our stay, without any discount for hotel guests. We ended up paying and enjoying the pool but it not being included (or at least some type of discount) very much felt like a missed opportunity to enhance the overall value of our stay.

Hotel Húsafell exceeded our expectations. The serene and secluded location created a peaceful retreat. The well-crafted breakfast and the exceptional fine dining experience at the on-site restaurant added a great touch to our stay. We also got the chance to experience the Northern lights even though it was cloudy so appreciated the wake up call. The overall ambiance and service make this hotel a standout choice for Iceland.

The cost was high for our budget, but it was a worthwhile splurge for us.

Gorgeous property with close proximity to natural spaces.

For the price point, the hotel could offer more amenities, like a fitness centre, sauna and hot tub. We also got a room close to the main entrance and could hear noises during the night, particularly luggage and trolleys being rolled on the aisle in front of our room (in addition to loud guests)

Location and general condition of the hotel. The breakfast was also very nice!
