The hotel is simply amazing. With fantastic views. Very cozy, room with a lot of space and very clean. The high point of my stay was how well Tatiana, the way she received us. I would love to be greeted by a person like her at every hotel I went to. Very polite, helpful, empathetic, a person I would love to have on my team.

Miserable stay!
Miserable! We were put in a handicap room (I wasn’t aware until after we noticed the bathroom) and were on the ground level. I would understand if we were checking in early or late, but that wasn’t the case. Being on the ground floor means constant noises from above and even under (restaurant). Chairs sliding on the hard floor, feet stomping from above, slamming of doors (our room door needed an extra hard push to close) and this was until 11pm! Lots of basic items were broken (hot water pot, handle for towel heater (disappointed I couldn’t use it), trash can step didn’t open lid, hair dryer works for 30 secs and then you wait for 2 mins for a reset, phone didn’t have dial tone to call reception which is across street, bed was hard like sleeping on floor, room door needed an extra hard push to close (stranger opened our door by mistake since it wasn’t shut. Luckily I was decent) and the bathroom..ugg! The shower had a curtain in the corner and water got all over the floor. I don’t understand but noticed out here the shower design is cramped and no doors. Also, trying to fill up water bottle in small sink is difficult!! Non smoking hotel but people smoke right outside your window! This is our 3rd hotel in Iceland. I am petite but wonder how a larger person would manage. Also, our 2nd Foss Hotel. Trying out another one tomorrow in a different area. Positive notes: Staff friendly, great location with pier for Aurora viewing,and restaurant food (although expensive) was delicious!

The building and room are gorgeous. Our room was spacious with lovely decor. We had a view of the mountains, the shower has wonderful water pressure. The ‘double’ bed was two twin beds that easily push apart, which is what we needed. The only complaint is the beds are not comfy. They are thin and stiff.

We loved our stay at the Fosshotels Eastfjords! The location is in a quaint town and our welcome at reception was warm and helpful. The museum pieces in the lobby (admission included for guests) were fun to look at. The lodging is well appointed in a spacious room that felt luxurious. We had a balcony room with a stunning view of the fjord. The only drawback was the mattress, it was very firm. Other than that, highly recommended!

Lovely town. Good hotel and staff. It’s a very old place repurposed as a hotel. A bit scary to think it was once a hospital. The museum and pictures add to the eerie experience. Our 10 year daughter was super scared. Rest of the stay was fine.

Large, nicely appointed and refreshed room in historic building with wood floors, lots of angles and character. Our room and bathroom were quite large with a nice water view. Very quiet.

If you are making the trek around Iceland this is a great place to stop and rest. A small and cute museum is part of the hotel which is a nice touch. If you plan on arriving late, you may struggle to find food, but as long as you plan ahead for staying in a small town, you will love the hotel and the Eastfjords are stunning in all weather types.
