Iceland Tourist Board
Icelandic electrical standards are European (50Hz, 240 volts) so many North American electrical devices will require converters and all will require plug adapters. Hotels usually keep one or two converter/ adapters on hand - but don't count on one being available. It's better to buy one in North America and bring it with you. They're usually found at US and Canadian electronic specialty stores and sell for around USD 25.
