Umi Hotel, hotel in Skogar

Featuring a lounge and views toward Eyjafjallajökull, Umi Hotel is located at the foot the famous volcano in South Iceland. It features a terrace and views of the sea.

We really enjoyed our stay. The food in the hotel restaurant was excellent, and the view from our room was breathtaking. They also have a private beach, which is a 20-minute walk away. We had a surprise guest (an Iceland horse/pony) who was grazing just outside the hotel breakfast area, which made our day!

    Skogafoss is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the world, impressively large, and if there is even a little bit of sunshine, there will be a rain bow in front of the falls. The town of Skogar includes a noteworthy folk history museum.

    Great place to stop at while driving to Vik!

    Great place to stop at while driving to Vik! There are many things to see and do and endless hiking paths to follow. A few waterfalls around including Kvernufoss, which was amazingly hidden, but very near the Skogar Museum. The museum offers a variety of exhibits on history of the area ( outside part including turf houses), but also technical part - really amazing and great thing to do when the weather is not promising. We stayed at hotel Skogafoss and we had a real blast there! Highly recommended due to facilities and service alike. There is a Eyjafjallajökull visitor centre, right below the volcano- unfortunately closed during winter season. We drove and walked to Seljavallalaug hot spring natural pool, where you can swim, however water is quite cold. The surroundings is beautiful though. Further south you can drive towards Dyrhólaey and Reynisfjara/Black beach. We loved Skogar area very much and had amazing time at different spots around.

    The hotel is located very close from the waterfall. The waterfall is spectacular! I recommend to go all the way up the stairs and walk around the trail and enjoy the marvelous view. It is a quiet and small town with very friendly people 😀

    The waterfall is the highlight, and if you have time, you should walk a bit further on the trail above it. It’s a beautiful hike. The folk museum is amazing, sounds corny, but it’s really good. It has an excellent cafe too. Area is close to Vik and the black sand beaches. The bistro at hotel Skogafoss is consistent and the food is good and reasonably priced for Iceland. Sadly the ‘secret’ waterfall now has a highway trodden too it and lots of erosion on site as people have climbed all over the grass outposts and killed all the vegetation.

    Laura was pleasant at the front desk. The room was fine-comfortable bed, lots of room to spread out. The best thing about this hotel is the location. You are a five minute walk to Skogafoss, but we felt it was very overpriced. The hotel itself is standard, nothing extravagant. The restaurant had very good food and was reasonably priced. The servers were very kind and professional. The free parking was also a nice perk. We did not have a view of the falls, but it was still very expensive. I guess you pay for the location.

    Nice reception area with helpful staff. Free hot drink facilities in reception. Rooms were bigger than expected with a wet room shower. Bed was comfy. Had the icelandic lamb for dinner in their restaurant which was delicious, cost £26 but I think that's good for Iceland! Quiet location and plenty of parking. Breakfast was basic but adequate - cereal, dried fruits, jam, peanut butter, cream cheese, cold cuts, boiled egg salad, breads, fresh fruit, juices & hot drinks. Fine for 1 night.

    Located under the dramatic waterfall, near the Skogar Museum, and only about 10-20 miles from the beaches at Vik, Hotel Skoga is clean, efficient and well located. The morning staff are polite, hospitable, and helpful. They speak English fluently as well as Polish and maybe other languages. The breakfast was plentiful, the hot tub clean and a sauna is available. The hotel check-ibis self service and easy to use. The hot coffee/water dispenser is marvelous, too! We loved our stay.

    Self-check in easy and straightforward. Staff were very nice and super apologetic about our first room being dirty (see below). The bed in our second room we were given was very comfortable. Breakfast in the morning was delicious and had a really big variety of foods to eat, staff were on top of replenishing food that had run out. Location was great, a 2min drive from Skogafoss.

    The hotel is an old boarding school in an attractive area next to the Skogafoss waterfall. The breakfast lounge was most conducive and the large screen pop videos were a delight. The breakfast choices, including a cooked dish, were superb and way beyond what one would expect for this, a budget hotel. It´s worth a stay just to enjoy the breakfast!

    The location was amazing and the views were postcard perfect. We enjoyed happy hour after checking in and a lovely dinner. You're not near a town or other restaurants so plan on eating at the hotel. It was the perfect location for driving down to the black sand beach near Vik.

    The breakfast was fabulous, with cooked options, plenty of fruit and vegetables, cereals, home-made jams... and mini custard doughnuts were a real hit! Perfect location within walking distance from the Skogar Museum, Kvernufoss and Skogafoss. Friendly staff at the check-out.
