Reviews of Hólaskjól Highland Center

Lovely authentic wooden cabin amid stunning scenery! Very helpful and friendly staff. A small shop to buy provisions. 10 minute hike to a waterfall.

The price. The shower is separate, communal, and very primitive but does have hot water.

Beautiful location! The accomodation is very basic - but this is clearly advertised so we knew what to expect. The staff is very friendly and helpful! We enjoyed our stay in this cosy little house.

Friendly staff, clean room

Price is probably high due to supply and demand, however in my opinion still on the pricey side.

The cabin is nice and cozy. Unfortunately, there is no hot water, and we were quite cold at night. The price seems a bit excessive to me; we've stayed in better accommodations for a lower price. But otherwise, everything was fine. The location and nature are beautiful. The road is about 15 km on a bad road, but it’s still manageable with a Duster car, and there is no river crossing. There’s a gas stove in the kitchenette, and you have to ventilate while cooking, which isn’t very comfortable.

It has a fantastic location along the F208, just an hour from Ring Road 1 and another hour to Landmannalaugar. The cabins are nice and well-spaced apart, snug and warm for those cold Icelandic nights. There is a nice waterfall just a 10-minute walk away from the cabin, too! The location was peaceful and easy to get to, and the roads were smooth for an F-road (Driving from the south). I highly recommend stopping over here and exploring the Icelandic highlands instead of the usual stops along Highway 1

I'm not the biggest fan of a shared shower room, but it's the highlands, and this is as luxurious as it gets!! :) (Ample hot water :))

The cottage has everything necessary for comfortable stay. Fully equipped kitchen, sitting place, WC. The shower is shared. There is a stunning view of waterfall just 20 m behind the cottage. Many thanks to Aurora for useful advises concerning our future trip ;-) and also we would thank the women on river cross (unfortunately don't know her name), but she was both so strict and so welcoming, that we remembered her all our journey. The Iceland can be proud of such a hospitable citizens. Many, many thanks.

Cosy cabin, very friendly staf, nice location, in the middle of nowhere

Price was a little high, no hot water in the showers, limited kitchen facilities.

The location is amazing. The road to get there is a nightmare, get ready for that. The house is pretty small. It is ok, but the price is insane in the end.

Price was too high for the quality of the housing. Location is great, but it is not enough.

The cabin was so nice! Great amount of space to move around and comfy beds. Everyone there was so kind and helpful with suggestions on what to do before we hit the road again. Would definitely recommend to someone looking to spend quality time in the highlands.

It’s not ok that there is no any warning that the hotel is off road. And that you need to transit an F road. We needed a mountain car for that. We asked if it would be possible to have some shuttle service. And the answer was a blunt no. We felt scammed.

Cozy cabin at a small campsite just at the edge of Fjallaback national park. Very friendly and helpfull staff. The cabin is really small, but we (family of four) loved our stay here in the middle of nature. From the cabin, it's a 10 minute walk to a nice waterfall. If you have the proper car, be sure to drive F208 and F235, two of the most beautiful (and at times challenging) roads in Iceland.

The pricing is quite steep.

Interesting location

Not our style

Loved the cabins and the waterfall only a 10 min walk away! Warden was extremely helpful, friendly, and knew the area well.

Did need to take an F road to get there so make sure you have the correct vehicle.

Excellent location, small and cosy.

In the nearby of camp were 3 waterfalls and there were beautiful nature. Personal was kind and polite.
