Frequently Asked Questions about hotels in Iceland
What are the best landmarks to visit in Iceland?
Iceland boasts many incredible landmarks. For breathtaking waterfalls, Gullfoss and Seljalandsfoss are must-sees. The iconic Blue Lagoon is a geothermal spa experience. For dramatic landscapes, explore Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon with its icebergs and the black sand beach of Reynisfjara. Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, showcases Iceland's geological wonders.
What are the most popular 2, 3 and 4-star hotels in Iceland?
Iceland offers diverse activities. Witness the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) during winter. Go glacier hiking on Sólheimajökull or Vatnajökull. Explore ice caves (safely guided, of course). Soak in the Myvatn Nature Baths. Go whale watching from Húsavík. If you're adventurous, try white-water rafting on the Hvítá river.
The ideal time depends on your priorities. June to August offers the midnight sun and long daylight hours, perfect for exploring. September to May offers the chance to see the Northern Lights, but expect shorter days and colder temperatures. Shoulder seasons (May-June and September-October) provide a balance of pleasant weather and fewer crowds.
What are the best family friendly hotels in Iceland?
Which areas are best for spending a week in Iceland?
A week allows for a good exploration of the south coast. You could easily spend time exploring Reykjavik, the Golden Circle (Thingvellir, Geysir, Gullfoss), the south coast waterfalls (Seljalandsfoss, Skógafoss), Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon, and Skaftafell Nature Reserve. Consider adding a day trip to the Snaefellsnes Peninsula for diverse landscapes.
Which parts of Iceland are perfect for a weekend getaway?
For a weekend, focus on the Reykjavik area and the Golden Circle. You can easily see the main sights, including Reykjavik's city center, Hallgrímskirkja church, Harpa Concert Hall, and the geothermal areas of the Golden Circle, all within a couple of days.
Is renting a car recommended for exploring Iceland?
Renting a car is highly recommended, especially if you want to explore beyond Reykjavik. Public transportation is limited outside the capital area. A 4x4 vehicle is often necessary for accessing the highlands and F-roads.
What are the best hotels with a swimming pool in Iceland?
Yes, credit cards are widely accepted throughout Iceland, even in smaller towns and rural areas. Debit cards are also commonly used.
What are the largest airports in Iceland?
Keflavík International Airport (KEF) is the main international airport, located near Reykjavik. There are also smaller domestic airports around the country, such as Akureyri Airport (AEY) and Egilsstaðir Airport (EGS).
Are there any unwritten rules of behavior visitors should know about in Iceland?
Respect nature. Stay on marked trails, don't litter, and avoid disturbing wildlife. Show consideration for local customs and traditions. Learn a few basic Icelandic phrases – it's appreciated.
What local specialties should you try in Iceland?
Try Icelandic lamb, skyr (a type of yogurt), plokkfiskur (a fish stew), and Kleinur (sweet fried pastries). Don't miss out on fresh seafood, such as lobster or arctic char.
Where are the best shopping spots in Iceland?
Reykjavik offers the best shopping. Laugavegur street has many shops, boutiques, and art galleries. Kringlan shopping mall is a larger option. Smaller towns often have unique craft shops and local boutiques.
What signature events or festivals take place in Iceland?
Iceland Airwaves music festival is a popular event. The Reykjavik Culture Night is a large-scale celebration of arts and culture. Many smaller local festivals celebrate specific aspects of Icelandic culture throughout the year.
What’s the best place in Iceland for mild and comfortable weather?
The south coast generally experiences milder weather than other parts of the country, particularly the areas closer to Reykjavik. However, Iceland's weather is unpredictable, so layers are always recommended.
What are the most common travel mistakes tourists make in Iceland?
Underestimating the weather is a frequent mistake. Not booking accommodations and tours in advance, especially during peak season, is another common error. Failing to bring appropriate clothing and gear for all types of weather is also a frequent issue.
What are some hidden gems to explore in Iceland?
The Westfjords offer dramatic landscapes and fewer crowds. The Snæfellsnes Peninsula is often called 'Miniature Iceland' for its diverse landscapes. Explore less-visited hiking trails and waterfalls away from the main tourist routes. Look for local recommendations from guesthouses and hotels.
