Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Hoffell?
The best area to stay in Hoffell is directly within the Hoffell Hot Tubs area, as this is the primary attraction and accommodations are purposefully built around it.

This small, concentrated area is essentially the Hoffell Hot Tubs complex itself. You'll find a selection of guesthouses and cottages situated very close to the geothermal pools, offering direct access to the main reason people visit this secluded spot. The landscape is dominated by open fields and distant mountains, providing a peaceful and private setting.

For travellers seeking a tranquil escape focused on relaxation and natural hot springs, staying right at Hoffell Hot Tubs is ideal. You'll be just steps away from soaking in the mineral-rich waters, great for unwinding after a day of exploring the East Fjords.
When is the best time to go to Hoffell?
The best time to visit Hoffell largely depends on whether you're seeking winter adventures and the Northern Lights or the milder conditions and longer daylight hours of summer.

For those eager to witness the Northern Lights and experience a true Icelandic winter, the months from October to March are ideal. During this period, the nights are long and dark, providing the best opportunities to see the aurora borealis dance across the sky. Winter also offers the chance to enjoy activities like ice cave tours, snowmobiling, and soaking in the geothermal hot tubs under a blanket of snow. Travellers seeking a unique, colder weather experience will find this time particularly rewarding.

If your preference is for milder weather, extended daylight, and a wider range of outdoor activities, then the summer months from June to August are perfect. The midnight sun means nearly 24 hours of daylight, allowing for more time to explore the stunning landscapes, hike in the surrounding mountains, and visit the nearby Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon.
