Volcano Huts Þórsmörk - Highlands

Great way to end a long hiking trip. Comfortable rooms with amazing views. Staff was friendly and helpful. Restaurant was a nice place to hang out and have dinner.

Stunning location, clean ,warm and simple room.Friendly staff happy to give advise on hikes. Would definitely return and recommend staying at Volcano Huts. Camp kitchen is well equipped.

We booked this accommodation due to limited alternatives. It’s extremely expensive, even by Icelandic standards. The biggest surprise came via email after booking, advising us to take a bus. The listing mentioned a shuttle and that the place was only accessible by 4x4 or a scheduled bus with a surcharge—but it never stated the actual cost: €64 per person, one way. For four people, that would have added €512 on top of the €360 already paid—completely out of proportion. Had this been clearly stated upfront, we wouldn’t have booked. We ended up driving ourselves along a 25 km gravel road in a Dacia Duster, crossed five rivers, then called the hotel. Mikko—friendly and helpful—picked us up in a Defender to cross three more deep rivers, for which we paid an extra fee. The location is stunning, but the accommodation is very basic. Dinner was OK. Breakfast was good. I’m surprised more reviewers don’t mention this. Most guests seemed to arrive by bus—likely unaware of the full cost until after booking.

Clean room, very nice facilities, friendly staff. No kitchenette in room except Cabins. Breakfast available for 30,000ISK.
