The peace and quiet of a raging waterfall!
Charming little place in the middle of nowhere, which I loved. Incredible quiet except for the roaring river and waterfalls the hotel overlooks. The breakfast was excellent and offered lots of options, and the dinner I had one night was delicious. A great choice!

Short & sweet stay at Fossatún Country Hotel. I really liked my accommodations, perfect for what I needed for a one night’s stay at the hotel.
Plus, breakfast was delicious.
It is quite a bit far from the town of Borgarnes though, so make sure you pickup your food/snacks before venturing out.
