Overview

Rating

Volcano Hotel is a small boutique country hotel located in southern Iceland. About 20 minutes outside the village of Vík, guests can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Mýrdalur valley. Volcano Hotel is the perfect base camp for travelers looking to explore all the area has to offer.

Volcano Hotel features seven spacious rooms with modern designs inspired by black volcanic rock and driftwood from the local beaches. There are four larger ‘family’-sized rooms available for larger groups as well. All rooms feature satellite TV and private bathrooms with shower. Free Wifi is also available throughout the hotel.

Volcano Hotel features a breakfast room where guests can enjoy breathtaking views of the oceans. Every evening, the kitchen offers dinner as "course of the day," which is sourced from local ingredients whenever possible. Vegan and vegetarian options are always available. There's a small lounge with a bar that features beer, wine, and spirits as well.

Situated near a multitude of natural sights, from glaciers and beaches to lagoons, Volcano Hotel is a great choice for travelers who enjoy the outdoors. The staff are officially licensed tour operators who run a company called Mountain Excursions, which feature a variety of tours. Guests can experience ice climbing, bird watching, and off-road Jeep adventures. The glacier volcano Katla is also a popular tourist destination in the area.

Getting to and from Volcano Hotel is easy. Iceland's capital, Reykjavík, is less than a two-hour drive away on the main East-West Ring Road Highway.

Anonymous, Sep 2017
Pros (+) Our room was clean, warm, and cozy, which is exactly what we needed after days of hiking. Breakfast each morning was very good and filling. The view from the hotel is gorgeous and while it is not directly in the town of Vik, the drive to the town and surrounding attractions was very short.
