Loved this property. It was my favorite of all of the places we stayed. Beautiful view from the cabin. The bed was comfortable. The food at the restaurant was very good and the staff were friendly
April
Lovely place! Scenic. Clean. Well maintained.
Our smallest accommodation AND most expensive on our entire Ring Road trip. Nothing negative to say--only for comparison sake.

Beautiful and peaceful spot with lots of birdlife in Klaustur. Easy parking and fast check-in. Stayed two nights. The room was nicely appointed but SO hot. No matter what we did (turned thermostat as low as it could go, then finally turned off the breaker) it was uncomfortably warm. We surmised that this was probably due to the grass roof retaining heat so something to be aware of for summer travellers. Every table at the breakfast buffet was talking about it in the morning (we counted 5 different tables of travellers commiserating). The bathroom was nice and modern - large shower, big modern sink (easy to fill water bottles), Soley bath products, but our towel warmer was out of order and it had a separate locked thermostat which was again so hot. The back area is perfect for a couple, with a two person wood bench and portable cushions found above the closet. Lush green field view with horses in the distance and various birds (oyster catchers, redshanks, snipes, arctic tern, gulls, redwings). Good selection at breakfast, did not make it to dinner but did go 3 min drive away to Kjarr and had a wonderful meal with front row view of the Systrafoss. Conveniently close to groceries, pharmacy, gas station, but still felt remote. Would not stay again in the summer but would consider in the winter.
Gennady
Beautifully located individual cabins. Very spacious inside. The ones closer to the lake and reception/restaurant house are super quiet. Liked everything except a minor inconvenience. The water from the shower overflows into the tiny bathroom no matter how careful you are. When we asked for extra towels, we were told to come and get them. Nobody is at the reception past dinner time. Breakfast is very limited.
Overall, beautiful place lacking service level that would much the high price.

I was disappointed with my stay at Magma Hotel, especially considering the premium price. We were allocated a room with an accessible bathroom even though we did not request one. The shower had no door or proper barrier, causing water to flood much of the bathroom floor after every shower.
Light entered through the glass panel beside the entrance door, and the room could not be fully darkened in the summer.
The water view is quite far away and the experience was not as expected. The hotel enforces a strict 4:00 PM check-in policy. Breakfast was mediocre, with a fairly limited selection.

Absolutely loved this property!!! If you have a chance to visit a real, authentic experience, this is such a treat in the middle of the county.
Lei
Beautiful location. Cabin is spacious facing a lake. Very beautiful. Heated floor, friendly staff. The onsite dinner is outstanding! Great place to see northern light. Unfortunately we did not see one during our stay. The only complaint is hot water in the shower only lasted about 10 minutes then ice cold. The breakfast is limited and dull.
Tomasz
Great view.
Neil
Super hotel, clean, modern, quaint and lovely staff… a unique experience
Andrew
The room was fantastic and utterly quiet. A great view and just what was needed in such a special location. Cosy and clean.
Katerina
This was our favorite hotel in Iceland. The views are spectacular and the cottages are just beautiful, great design, quality and spacious. The breakfast has definitely room for improvement, the dinner was not so great. (premium ingredients but lacking flavors). The personal was professional and friendly. Thank You for our stay.
Alona
Great place
Davide
basic, minimalist, but well organised and welcoming. great food
Mary
The individual cabins look like monopoly houses from the outside, but the full wall of windows inside offers a fantastic view of the surrounding area. Inside are modern furnishings. The restaurant in the reception house offered a delicious dinner, and the buffet breakfast the next morning was great.
Deborah
Delightful property with amazing views out onto lakes, Icelandic ponies and scenery.
Restaurant had great choices allowing guests to choose cheaper options or something a bit more special. I chose a bit more special and it was delicious and well presented.
Staff are friendly and kind. Would definitely recommend.
Our heated towel rail was marked out of order which was a bit disappointing so hope the hotel can get this fixed for next guest.

Magma was beautiful and my favorite hotel I stayed at in Iceland. The view from our room was gorgeous. The room was stylish and comfortable. I wish I was there for a few more nights!

Nitin
Great stay !
Kirandeep
Property is well maintained with clean and spacious cabins .
Lesley
There was nothing about this property that we did not like. From the quiet location, to the quality of the food at dinner and breakfast, to the cleanliness and amenities of the room, to the views outside our window and our own patio area of the immediate countryside and beyond. Our stay was truly wonderful and we were only sorry it was for one night as we were on a tour of the ring road. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Absolutely loved it.
Sam
The Magma Hotel was very nice and in a great location, however, I feel like it wasn't a great value for my money comparable to the other places I stayed during our time in Iceland. Additionally, their website lists laundry service yet it doesn't exist. This amenity is one of the main reasons i selected this hotel so it was disappointing to discover that it was no longer available. All that being said, the staff were all quite friendly the view from oir cottage over the pond was wonderful!
Verified traveler
This hotel is everything you want, good room, excellent shower pressure, beautiful views, good breakfast, excellent WiFi, parking right in front.
I cannot recommend a hotel more than the Magma Hotel.

Jennifer
This was a gem of a spot! Loved the cozy bed, the view and off the beaten path location, and the delicious onsite restaurant that included free breakfast!
Cheri
Best stay ever!!!!
So incredibly comfortable and peaceful. Beautiful view. They thought of every possible comfort in the room including heated floors, our own water heater. They started breakfast early for us because we had a morning tour. We even forgot drinks in the frig, went back in the afternoon and they saved them for us. Incredible customer service.
Brandi
We loved our stay at the Magma Hotel. It was serene and made us feel like we were truly experiencing the calm of Iceland.
The cabins are a good size with stunning views, the beds were super comfy, and they provide binoculars which we loved since there were so many unique birds in the pond we overlooked!
The staff was very welcoming and helpful which was reassuring since the location is decently far from a city/town (Kirkjubaejarklaustur has a small grocery store but the hours are a bit limited and it's the only town for miles). Having breakfast included is a luxury and was very convenient before starting our long days of exploring. There were a lot of different options.
The location is also convenient as it allows you to be an hour closer to Vatnajokull National Park than Vik.
We would definitely stay here again!

This cottage exceeded our expectations! It was spacious, clean and renovated. We loved the view and patio off the back and the breakfast was delightful
Luis
Very nice and clean place. The included breakfast was excellent—fresh and delicious every day.
I understand that AC may not be necessary in the rooms, but they should at least provide a fan. We left the window slightly open, but it wasn't enough—I was sweating at night. The blankets they provide are also quite warm.
The view from my room was incredibly beautiful.
I would recommend Magma Hotel to any friends or family visiting Iceland.

Property was beautiful and rooms were spacious. Overlooking the lake-was very peaceful and calming. Staff were wo derful and very accomodating. Dinner and breakfast was very good.

Loved this hotel. So.unique to stay in your own small cabin. Food at the hotel restaurant is wonderful. Definitely recommend.
Taylor
It was very peaceful, rooms were spacious and accommodation. Location was perfect on the lake with running water. Would definitely stay again
Paul
Amazing experience… we will be back
What an amazing experience… this was our wild card and turned out to be the best of them all. The rooms are mind blowing in the lake. The bistro was wonderful. The staff could not do enough for us.

What an amazing location, and a fantastic little private cabin as part of the hotel. the pictures tell the story and it is breathtaking!
Kathryn
Wonderful property with private lakeside cabins. Absolutely perfect.
Baylee
Wouldn’t recommend!! At the price you are paying, you should receive enough hot water for 2 people to shower- we had hot water for maybe one 10 minute shower- therefore I was not able to shower- not worth the price for failed basic amenities
Siying
small problem in the cabin we had for a night. the lock of the washroom is damaged and not working. other than that, all is perfect.
dayana
Great small individual units. Heated floors were such a welcomed feature in the winter. We saw the northern lights the two nights we were there.
Would definitely return.

great location and cosy individual cabin rooms, great dinner in interesting dining room nearby. good food and friendly people but set up made for great privacy and view was wonderful. got to stay in wonderful snowstorm.
Marley
This hotel was perfect, the room was modern yet cozy, a perfect place to relax after a long day of exploration. The included breakfast was great, and the restaurant was so cute, looked like something out of a hallmark movie. We were even able to see the northern lights off of our back deck!
Verified traveler
It was amazing
Mark
Hut was beautiful and cosy, great views and the food was very good too. Would highly recommend
Kuan Fu
Rooms were big enough, very clean and breakfast selection was great. Patio was great but too cold to use it. Parking is about 10 steps from the unit with a gravel path—might be troublesome for some.
Jenna
Amazing stay 5-star rating!
This place was amazing, the people, room and included breakfast was fantastic. We are planning to return in the summer and will 100% be booking our stay @ Magma. The rooms were clean, modern and spacious. We loved this place!
Eric
Loved staying here by the lake - would recommend.
Eleanor
Fabulous view and very peaceful. Modern spacious room, and a great breakfast included.
Wai Yee
Such a modern well-equipped room. The lake view did make everyone feel relaxing.

Would definitely stay again
We wish we could have stayed here longer. Our cabin faced the lake and we had a view of the northern lights from bed. Breakfast was included and was very good. The room was extremely nice and comfortable. We were surprised to find a mini frig in there as well.

Check if you have parking access
Nice cabins unfortunately there is no ability to park near the more expensive upscale cabins hence it means carrying your heavy suitcases in the pouring rain from the main car park all the way to your cabin. Not ideal!!
Allison
An absolutely gorgeous hotel!! It was very clean and had a delicious complimentary breakfast. We ate dinner and breakfast at the hotel while overlooking a lake with grazing horses. The best hotel I’ve stayed at in Iceland!
Angela
Friendly staff and tasty breakfast!
Michael
This was our favorite hotel during our stay in Iceland. We had a spacious room with an incredible view of the water and we enjoyed watching the neighborhood horses. Our room had a sitting area with a small sofa and chair. All the amenities that we needed were included. The breakfast buffet was also a treat. All in all, this hotel was a real treat.

Helpful staff. There was a road closure and they were helpful in helping figure out the status.
Kathryn
This hotel was a great find. Lovely spacious rooms - with an amazing view. The Bistro was a great spot lave to end our days of sight seeing with a fabulous meal.
Paul
Great place to stay when exploring the south coast
Great view, spacious rooms, very friendly staff and delicious coffee. Perfect stopover for our family of 6(2 rooms). Ask for rooms 1&2, great view of the lake. Photo is from our patio.

Staff extremely attentive and responsive. Buffet breakfast, as well as dinner, were wonderful with many options. Facilities are very clean and cozy.
Amy
Peaceful & Relaxing
This hotel was absolutely worth the price - our room was immaculately cleaned and even better than the photos we saw. The property is very quiet and relaxing and the breakfast was very good. Would highly recommend staying here.
Tamara
Beautiful area to stay in. The staff is warm, welcoming, and helpful. The food is fabulous!
Daniel
I loved everything about this hotel (staff, breakfast, room, view) and really wanted to give 5 stars like most other people. Unfortunately I did not like the hot water tank in the room. The shower itself was lovely, but the water tank seemed to only have enough hot water in for 1 person to shower, before needing hours to reheat. Very disappointing for two people staying who really enjoy their showers after a long day hiking.

Excellent experience

great and comfortable stay!
Larissa
10/10 for this property!! We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this hotel. The staff were polite and welcoming. Our room was exactly as described, was spacious, clean and comfortable. There is a restaurant on site where we had dinner which was cooked to perfection. Breakfast was delicious with a wide range of options to choose from. Free parking is available on site.

This is the best hotel I’ve experienced on my Iceland Ring-road trip. The restaurant was great for breakfast and my wife and I totally enjoyed the dinner at the restaurant. Check-in was straightforward and we had the lake view room - great for sunrise. And after sunset (more light at midnight) .. we had our very first sighting of the Northern Lights. I must stress that Northern Lights sightings are purely based on luck and chance, but the location of the hotel does help due to less light pollution. If you are on the Ring Road trip give this hotel look-see, I hope you will also have as much an enjoyable time as me and my wife did.
Michael
Wow what a view! You can leave your drapes open but still have complete privacy and watch the northern lights from bed.
Carol
This is a great hotel. We enjoyed our stay. Request a room that looks over the water.
Yvette
I love the stunning scenery from the rooom!
Anthony
Rooms were nice. Staff was great. We left our kindle and they called us within 15 min of checking out.
Yan
Really nice place! Only problem is the front desk won’t be available 24h. So if you need anything, you are not going to find them. The other thing is their door lock, which is very challenging. The last they should prepare some cup and box for customers who don’t have time for breakfast to have a packed one.
Laura
Lovely place, clean and quiet with everything you need. View from the rooms to lake is really great. Breakfast included which had a good variety of fresh and even some hot food too!
Kristen
We loved our stay at Magma. It's a beautiful property with lovely rooms and restaurant. Breakfast was fairly standard but the beautiful dining room made it even better. The location is great for a south coast road trip. Would definitely stay here again!
Susanne
We had a magnificent stay here. The rooms are clean, lovely, the views were spectacular, and the staff were extremely accommodating and nice. Food was amazing too! All around five stars.
Maureen
Cozy and stylish cabin hotel
This was my second stay at this hotel - and the rooms are so well designed and stylish! Since my last stay (in 2021) however, there has been an expansion and more new cabins have been added up above the original 10-15 down by the lower pond. I understand there are plans for further expansion too - a traditional hotel building. While it is still above average for hotels in this area, I'd suggest more attention or care to landscaping around the outside/front of the upper cabins for more \"curb appeal.\" My partner also noted some degradations on the breakfast buffet - what happened to the smoke salmon? Overall, love the design and comfort of the rooms - SO cozy. Check in.

A good home-base for day trips to the south coast
We had a nice stay here at Magma Hotel. We spent two nights in Dec '23 and used this as a home-base for short trips to the south coast of Iceland to see Glacier Lagoon, Diamond Beach, and to do some ice-cave sight seeing.
The Hotel was nice. Staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable, but there was some wear-and-tear on the finishes that needs to be fixed. This is a \"builders grade\" hotel. Nothing too fancy and not put together with precision.
Restaurant was good for dinner. The breakfast buffet was OK.
I would definitely stay here again for the same purpose. It was a good value.

Lovely turf-roofed cabins. Pretty views.
Jennifer
Beautiful property next to a pond and hills of lovely scenery. The onsite evening dining was superb and we appreciated the breakfast spread. It was nice to be separate from other apartments to cut down on noise. Our only issue was that the thermostat was locked to a temp that was too warm for sleeping, but we cracked the sliding glass door and didn't have an issue. Very comfortable beds and nice shower. We'd definitely stay again without hesitation.
Catherine
Our favourite accommodation during our 2 week trip in Iceland. Very modern, spacious and warm. The view was magnificent and very tranquil. Breakfast was great.
GRAHAM
Comfortable individual pods looking onto lake
Lovely area, room looking out onto a lake, and lovely restaurant on premises (with a very tasty lobster soup). Would definitely recommend this hotel.
Christine
Magma Hotel is comprised of a group of individual bungalows in a beautiful setting. The accommodations are beautifully decorated and spotless.
The surroundings and the lake evoke relaxation, peacefulness and privacy. I am hoping to return there some day.
