Hotel Vík í Mýrdal is a stylish modern hotel located right in the village of Vík í Mýrdal, perfectly situated for exploring the South region of Iceland.

The hotel rooms are modern and quite comfortable with views of the black-sand beach on one side and mountain hills on the other. The hotel has a great restaurant with an incredible buffet breakfast and a fine dining experience in the evening. It also features a stylish bar and a fitness center.

We personally were surprised by the quality of service and attention to detail during our stay, making it a pretty good value for money.

The hotel's location serves as a perfect base for exploring the South region – the Reynisfjara Beach, Dyrhólaey, and Solheimasandur Plane Wreck are all 10-20 minutes away. And pretty much all the tours to the Katal Ice Cave also depart from this town.
