Description
Hotel Selfoss is a 4-star hotel with a geothermal spa, located in the beautiful town of Selfoss. Those seeking to explore the varied and spectacular attractions of south Iceland from a modern, luxurious base will find it perfectly suited to their desires. It is particularly well-equipped for business travellers.
Location & Nearby
Sat on the shores of the magnificent river Ölfusá, just aside from the heart of Selfoss, Hotel Selfoss boasts both access to incredible nature and essential amenities. The settlement has shops, restaurants, gas stations and even some tour operators, as well as unmatched access to the attractions of south Iceland.
None of these are more famous or celebrated than those on the iconic Golden Circle sightseeing route. This tourist trail is home to the breathtaking waterfall of Gullfoss, the dramatic geyser of Strokkur, and the historic and geological site of Thingvellir National Park; all of these sites can be reached within an hour.
Also under an hour away is the first site of the second-most renowned route in the country, Seljalandsfoss waterfall on the South Coast. Hotel Selfoss is located in the Selfoss area of South Iceland. Hveragerði / Reykjadalur is about 13 km away by road and Kerið about 15 km.
Though Hotel Selfoss has a stunning spa on-site, there are several other geothermal bathing opportunities nearby. The Secret Lagoon at Fludir and the geothermal river of Hveragerdi are notable examples, both just over an hour away.
Facilities & Amenities
Hotel Selfoss has earned its four stars from its wealth of amenities and its modern, comfortable rooms. Each of them has an en suite bathroom, free Wifi, and flat-screen television, and many also boast a beautiful view over the river and surrounding landscapes.
There are standard rooms, premium rooms and king rooms for couples, pairs and solo travellers, which get progressively larger. Families and friends instead can book superior rooms, which accommodate three. A breakfast buffet is included in Standard, Premium, Superior and King rooms, while Economy rooms (15-16 m², with a balcony) are sold without breakfast.
The Riverside Spa, with its geothermal hot tub and saunas, and its range of massages and treatments, is one of the greatest appeals of the hotel. Its sauna, steam room, hot tub, three types of showers and relaxation lounge are open 10:00-20:00 on weekdays and 12:00-20:00 on weekends, with beauty treatments on weekdays from 9:00 to 17:00. Guests get admission for just 1,500 ISK, which is less than half of the standard price. The Riverside Restaurant is also a great feature, serving a beautiful menu created with locally sourced ingredients. It seats 200, is open to all year-round and has a happy hour from 16:00 to 18:00, and there is also a bar with a fireplace.

There are conference facilities for up to 450 (main hall 300 sq m), and the main meeting room is an expansive 300 square metres. This room can also be used for functions such as weddings.
