Fosshótel Hekla
About
Found on Iceland, Fosshótel Hekla stands at Skeiða- og Hrunamannavegur, 804 Brjánsstaðir, Iceland. The setting lies in the south of the country, inland from the coast along the route that runs between Reykjavik and the southern ring. Selfoss is the nearest of the larger towns, with Vik further along the south coast.
Travellers driving the southern route will find the hotel positioned between Reykjavik and the glacier country, so it works as a stop on a longer circuit. Guests have given Fosshótel Hekla a 4.1 out of 5 average across 257 reviews, a large enough sample to suggest a settled level of service. The hotel publishes its own information at https://www.fosshotel.is/hotels/fosshotel-in-the-south/fosshotel-hekla/.
South Iceland draws visitors for its volcanic landscapes, waterfalls and glacier access, and the hotel sits within that corridor. Reaching it from Keflavik involves the drive up to Reykjavik and then east along the southern road.
Iceland's climate is temperate maritime, and the long summer days make driving the south coast easier than in the short winter daylight. English is widely understood, and patronymic surnames ending in -son or -dóttir remain in everyday use.
