Reviews for Fosstun Apartments Hotel
Review 1:not enough pots and cutlery to cook for a family
Review 2:well situated to do the Golden Circle, good place to stock up on provisions, very friendly and helpful staff. Spacious bathroom
Review 3:Nothing!
Review 4:Sylvia who checked us in was very friendly, it was very clean. Nice place to rest our bodies after a long day of being a tourist! Easy to find!
Review 5:I really enjoyed the studio we rented, the beds were really good, it was really clean and plus, the kitchen was equipped with everything you need to cook a nice meal. The location was nice and quiet, a perfect place to rest when you are on the road!
Review 6:Very limited supplies in kitchen, not the cleanest apartment when we got there. Heat was too warm and could not be turned down.
Review 7:Location for exploring the golden circle was excellent, grocery stores close by, easy check-in and check-out.
Review 8:nothing! it was just great :)
Review 9:excellent place, ultra clean!, great value for money, apartment was big enough for 4 people and we had nicely equipped kitchen and big bathroom, location is great for first/last night at Iceland coz it is nice 1-hour drive from the airport, there are restaruants and supermarkets nearby, staff was really nice
Review 10:For longer stay, room may be too small for four people, but if you come just to sleep there this is a perfect place
Review 11:We had a nice little clean room for four people which was ideal for one night stay.
Review 12:Apts can be a little hot and airless -- only one small window opens -- when the weather is hot (which it seldom is in Iceland, so this is not a big problem).
Review 13:Location -- Selfoss is a great base for exploring southern Iceland by car, and location of Fosstun in Selfoss also very good. Pleasant walk by river to grocery store.
Review 14:They screwed up the reservation and put us into the large hotel in town, so we never stayed there. They were very apologetic and had a reservation at the hotel all arranged.
Review 15:There was no hair dryer available in the room.
Review 16:Room was spacious but not so new, choice of breakfast was limited, and we felt that the place was overpriced (though in Icelandic standards maybe not?). However I think all of that was made up for by the excellent helpfulness of the staffs who always tried their best to help us with a great smile.
Review 17:While the apartment is big, there is only one bedroom with a pull-out sofa, not really appropriate for three or four adults, unless you all want to be in the same room.
Review 18:The staff was very accommodating and went over and above what they had to do to ensure that we had everything that we needed. The apartment was clean, the beds comfortable.
Review 19:Bathroom air conditioner made noise annoyingly long even though you just turned lights on.
Review 20:Curtains made room nicely dark, there was enough table room in bathroom for stuff, bed was good. Room was quiet as it was not on the street side. Best one in our round trip in Iceland.
Review 21:The breakfast has mostly ingredients for sandwiches, but it's common in Iceland. I would like to get something 'more warm'. But it's just a personal opinion.
Review 22:The apartment was spacious and clean.
Review 23:The management was very friendly, very interested in making sure we had everything we needed. The apartment was large and comfortable. We had breakfast the next morning, provided by Fosstun. It was the typical Icelandic breakfast and it was delicious and fresh.
Review 24:Good for overnight stay. Kitchen facilities, breakfast and private bathroom were included. Recommended for overnight stay. Excellent light blocking curtains!
Review 25:The bathroom floor gradient causes water from the shower to flow into the whole bathroom and breakfast in the red cross unit across the street
Review 26:The reception staff accommodating our request for a unit on the ground floor and plenty of parking spaces
Review 27:Only twin beds, but they can be moved together.
Review 28:Staff was very friendly, rooms were clean and stocked with items necessary prepare meals, good location for exploring the southern coast
Review 29:The bathroom floor was a disaster: the shower water flowed everywhere, just not into the drain. When more people need to shower in the morning, this anomaly becomes a true nuisance. The sofa was completely worn down. The flat lacked a coffee table. A big, bulky television is unlikely to be used by anyone, so it could just easily be transported onto the waste pile. The cleaning of the floor was only moderately upon arrival, except for bathroom floor that was perfectly clean.;)
Review 30:The manager of the place was nice and service minded, but there is not much to do with a bathroom floors that are so incredibly skewed. Breakfast was as expected at this price, nothing more. All in all, we get to stay there at a next visit to the country, it is not likely that all bathrooms are so catastrophic that the flat we got.

Review 43:The apartment was clean and serviced each day. Staff very helpful. Easy to locate.
Review 44:Good location, quiet, nice breakfast.
Review 45:Well arranged appartment - easy to find and next to restaurants and supermarket
Review 46:-- the city is boring
Review 47:++ large, nice rooms
Review 48:Breakfast Comfy beds Use of washing machine and dryer Very helpful staff (answering questions) Spacious
Review 49:Kitchenette could have a few more items.
Review 50:Well located, spacious apartment with good wifi. Courteous staff willing to help.
Review 51:We were double billed.
Review 52:Price/quality far to find and having breakfast in a red cross building is a laugh.
Review 53:No elevator No double bed (2 connected single beds)
Review 54:Room was quite big Nice breakfast
Review 55:Nice size apartment for a family of four. Easily located for accessing the Golden Triangle and other areas.
Review 56:Selfoss itself doesn't have much to offer but is ok as access for Golden Circle
Review 57:Friendly staff
Review 58:The hotel says the sofa bed is for two people (one person on the sofa, the other on a matress which you can pull out of the sofa). Since the separate matress isn't really appealing, I would recommend spending the night there with a maximum of three people.
Review 59:Clean and well equipped apartment. Nice breakfast basket; but of course it is not the same as an intercontinental hotel buffet.
Review 60:This hotel was our sixth stay in Iceland during our three-weeks vacation, and it was the best! The room is ample, clean and comfortable, with equipped kitchenet. Breakfests were a little bit unvaried, but good enough, sufficient and is being served in a very handy manner. The hotel suits well to those intending not to limit themselfes with visiting the Blue Lagoon (though is only one hour driving). The breath-taking objects of the Golden Cycle - Thingvellir national park, Gullfoss waterfall, Geysir, crater Kerih - are within the distance of 55 km by excellent roads. You can also easily reach interesting POI to the East: the two spectaculous waterfalls and - my urgent recommendations - the Dyrholaey cape along with Reynisfjara beach. The spacious parking belongs to the building. For everyday needs - there're good stores only 500 meter from hotel. The hotel isn't cheap, but is worth the money.
Review 61:Can't think of anything!
Review 62:as others have said - superb value, excellent service, spacious, clean, convenient (with laundry and breakfast baskets). If I were visiting again, I'd use Fosstun Apartments Hotel as my base to see many of the southern and eastern sights. Highly recommended.
Review 63:The welcome was very good! The location is excellent between the golden circle, de departure to the south east. We came back tree time in this place and was like a quiet harbor before and after our trekkings or our trips by car (washmachines, bus station, restaurant...)
Review 64:We had some difficulty with the Wi-Fi connection
Review 65:The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and very comfortable. The centre of Selfoss was within easy walking distance. The parking was excellent.
Review 66:I liked everything about it
Review 67:The staff were warm, friendly, and very helpful. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and had everything one could need. The location was within easy driving distance of sites one would like to see in the south.
Review 68:Kitchen needs to be better equipped: coffee maker, spatula, etc. Mattresses were spongy.
Review 69:The apartment was spacious, modern, comfortable (except mattresses), and clean. At 70 Euro, the price was right.
Review 70:The breakfast location has changed and is a better breakfast but location is not, a Red Cross station.
Review 71:Easy place to stay.
Review 72:The people running the hotel were lovely! Great location.
Review 73:Breakfast - ready in apartment, no need to get up at certain hour. The beds were so comfortable, had a good sleep.
Review 74:Too hot Kitchen could be better equipped eg chopping board, sieve/colander
Review 75:Location to tourist sites Close parking Space
Review 76:Very roomy. Too bad we arrived late and left early. It would have been a great place for an extended stay.
Review 77:Large appartment with all commodities, well located in the center of Selfoss near the Golden Circle
