We just stayed for a night but I wish we could have stayed longer to really enjoy the place. The staff were friendly and attentive to our needs. They also have a restaurant within the hotel and we really appreciate Boda (staff in the restaurant) who really took care of our breakfast. He entertained us very well.too bad never got the chance to enjoy their pool. Not enough time for us.
Property was excellent! Restaurant on staff was delicious, the pool/sauna was magical under the northern lights. Just delightful.
Rooms were very cozy and warm.
Really enjoyed the stay. Staff was really great. Restaurant was also delicious. The steam room and thermal pools were a big plus! Definitely recommend to see the northern lights, visit the ice tunnel, and take in the serene atmosphere.

Great location, staff, and amenities. Saw the most amazing Northern Lights.
We are definitely coming back to stay again! We loved how warm and cozy our deluxe room was. The heated floor, the hot water kettle, and refrigerator were so convenient. The location of the room was perfect as well. We were able to see the northern lights from our room. The food and staff at the restaurant was exquisite. Sasha, in particular, was very kind. He opened up the restaurant for us since we got to the hotel early before check-in time, and we were able to have a delicious lunch (the cod sandwich with chips and salmon salad), and enjoy the quiet dining hall to ourselves while taking in the beautiful views of Husafell. We are very grateful for the excursion opportunities that were offered (into the glacier, lava cave, snowmobiling on top of Langjoküll, Barnafoss, etc). The staff there were amazing. Lastly, the geothermal baths right outside our hotel was lovely to have. We went twice and it was never crowded. Very relaxing, rejuvenating, and refreshing. Thank you for our stay. We'll see you again soon.
The staff were incredible! The amenities are great. My only issues it the Canyon Baths. It was made to seem as if entry was included in the hotel stay (they use photos on the hotel website) but it is not! You have to take a tour and it often fills up. We were unable to visit the baths because we did not know this until it was too late and the tours were full during our stay
Amazing location and staff, combined this was an experience that could only be had here in this isolated place. Marco and Paula made us feel at home even though were were so far from it.

The hotel restaurant is fantastic! Food is fresh, locally sourced and delicious. The hotel has an understated luxurious feel with warm comforts and great service. The onsite thermal pools were wonderful after a long day on the glaciers or caving; traveled with a 9yr old and he was more than welcome in the pools and had a great time. Also, a great location as it is a 1 min walk from Into the Glacier tours (highly recommend)

Dejlig rent værelse. Dog kunne der godt være to stole, så begge kunne sidde.
Personalet var super flinke, og sød receptionist, som hjalp med booking af aktiviteter.
Maden var lækker, men dyrt (men det er det vist bare på Island). Få muligheder for at spise andre steder, da det ligger ret isoleret.
Men fantastisk placering ift. Hraunfossar og Barnafoss samt Lavagrotten.
Og så var der nordlys - wauw!!!
Som en rigtig fin service kunne man tilmelde sig vækning om natten, hvis der kom nordlys. Receptionisten havde virkelig travlt alle 3 nætter, vi var dér ☺️
Hotel Husafell is a beautiful place to get away and enjoy the idyllic Iceland countryside. Lovely paths to walk on, gorgeous views, thermal heated pools, and an awesome happy hour and restaurant. The food was outstanding. The staff at the Husafell Hotel were also most helpful and kind. Maybe on my next visit there, I will be able to see the northern lights!
Umhverfið fallegt, herbergin rúmgóð og flott, maturinn algjörlega geggjaður og þjónusta og starfsfólk með toppeinkunn.
Lindin er dásamleg viðbót við hóteldvölina :)
Hotel and staff are very nice. The food in the restaurant is excellent!! The provided breakfast has a lot of options, both American and Icelandic. We didn’t have time to enjoy the pool but it looked very nice and saw a number of people using it. The hotel is quiet and our room was large and had a great view.
Muy por encima del resto de hoteles de su categoría en Islandia..

Fantastic restaurant and walking distance to great hiking.
Terrible beds and pillows.
Misleading pictures as they show a spa that is not the hotel spa but rather a very costly spa nearly. They do have a steam room and hot pools and a cold plunge pool but it looks nothing like the natural springs on the Expedia profile.
Nice location out in the mountains. Food was excellent at their restaurant. The canyon baths were amazing! It is a little bit away from everything, but that’s a lot of its appeal.
The restaurant on site was incredible. We ate dinner there: scallop appetizer, cod, salad, and pea ice cream for dessert. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. Likewise, the breakfast buffet was delightful with a good array of choices.
