Fosshotel Reykjavik

Fosshotel Reykjavik

8/10 Good
"We loved the hotel. Great location. Only 1 drawback was the tiny shower in our room It felt like the size you would get on a cruise ship The staff was excellent. We would stay here again I booked through Expedia and the hotel messaged me before our trip The communication was seamless from our room, restaurants and places to see"
