Lovely warm and cosy in the pod Great to have the hot tub Fantastic location with a view of the waterfall and we even saw the northern lights

I had a wonderful stay here. The pods are perfect for viewing the aurora and night stars since this location is far from light pollution. I came here in winter time and it was nice and warm inside the pod. I opted to eat breakfast and dinner here. Both were great, and I would recommend the dinner (by reservation only) if you can since it was amazing!

An enjoyable experience somewhere between a decent hotel and camping. Shared kitchen, bath, and shower areas were clean and everything in working order. We stayed in -20C weather and camping pods were cozy and comfortable. We saw the northern lights both nights. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. We only had one meal there—no complaints. Drinks and vinyl in the main house at night are a must for music lovers. The troll walk is is a riot, even for adults! Borgarnes is 20 minutes away and is a great town to explore during the day—just another reason to stay at Fossatun. The Settlement Museum is a must for anyone wishing to learn more about Icelandic history. Narrated headphone tours in lots of languages come with the price of admission. All in all, a great area and Fossatun is a fun and memorable place to stay.

8/10 Very good

Amazing pods in a lovely area
The pods were super cute and so warm...if you leave the windows shut! The location is amazing, and the restaurant has a view over a river, the bridge, a trolls face imbedded into the side of the embankment and parts of the troll walk. Yes the bathrooms are all shared facilities and yes there are three hot tubs that you can use between 5pm - 11pm but it is literally just across from all the pods which is great .

This was such a fun place to stay. The camping pods were like perfect tiny houses. The property had gorgeous falls nearby and the view was beautiful. The troll theme, area for hanging out with all the records, and the walking trail made this a special place. It was also super kid friendly.

Hands down my favorite stay driving across Iceland! The bed was so comfy and the common area amenities were clean and helpful. We paid a bit extra for the blankets and pillows since we didn't have sleeping bags and it was well worth it. Breakfast was good too!

I had an amazing time staying at the camping pods! Truly a special and unique spot. My cabin was cozy, everything at the place is clean and the views of the waterfall and mountains are breathtaking. I loved having a relaxing breakfast looking out at the waterfall. The dinner was great as well. I don’t mind sharing a bathroom as long as things are kept clean- and they are.
