Hótel Laugarvatn

One of the best meals I’ve had in Iceland! Everything was very reasonably priced and full of flavour. The lamb steak was perfectly cooked — succulent, tender, and wonderfully seasoned, paired with potatoes and a rich mushroom and cream sauce. The cod was beautifully fresh and delicious. The pizza had a thicker base than expected but was still very good. Starters and desserts were just as impressive: the baked brie was outstanding, and the cheesecake with fresh mangoes was a real treat. The hotel itself is also excellent. The service was warm and accommodating — we requested a particular room and they happily arranged it. The property is spotlessly clean, with a peaceful atmosphere and a stunning lake view. The location is convenient too, with a petrol station next door for easy refueling. A quiet, relaxing stay in a lovely town, with great food to match. Highly recommended!

I would have given a higher rating for this hotel but it was difficult to find the entrance, instructions were unclear and the room was very tiny and no ventilation to clear the steam from the shower, no place for luggage either, but other than that, the room was clean and comfortable with a nice window to view the lake! Breakfast isn’t included with the hotel room but can be purchased at the dining area in another building, they had a nice spread for the money, about $22 in American dollars , nothing is cheap in Iceland and no scrambled eggs or bacon, more like a continental breakfast!

Stayed here when my first accommodations cancelled my reservation 5 minutes before my checkin after they discovered they over booked. Got a great deal on the room and was desperate after traveling for 24 hours with no sleep. They let me check in an hour early!! God bless! They were extremely courteous at the front desk. The room was clean, the bathroom ,although small, was new and updated and fully functional. There is 24 hour free coffee, tea and hot chocolate in the common area for guests. There is even an elevator to the second floor for convenience. The room was cozy, the bed was comfortable and the blackout curtains worked perfectly. There is a small patio on the side of the building to enjoy overlooking the mountains. Plenty of free parking. Within walking distances to small kiosk, geothermal spa Laugarvatn Fontana and restaurants as well as having a restaurant on site. They offer breakfast on site as well for a small fee. At night it is totally silent!! Such bliss! I highly recommend this place.

I got a last minute room for two nights. The room itself was good, new and clean. But in a kind of basement with a parking lot right before the big window so I had I close the curtains all the time. But as I said - last minute, last room. And - this goes to other tourists - please don’t be awful loud at night. And don’t let your kids run through the corridors, knocking at strangers doors and trying out door codes at random doors. Besides this everything was really good. The service is exceptional! What a wonderful team! Good food and free coffee for guests. There’s a gas station with a small supermarket one minute away and it’s a 15 min drive to the Geysir. Would definitely stay again

Overall was it alright. You could hear a lot from the hallways and other rooms. We didn't have a lot of space, neither in the bedroom or bathroom. The dinner at the place was really good. The breakfast was alright. Their toast machine took a lot of turns to get the bread just a little crispy. But it was alright. The service was really good, and an amazing view. But I probably wouldn't go here again.

We ate there. There is a limited menu, but the food is good. You order and pay directly at the bar/counter. I recommend the lamb. Quick and friendly service. The cod could have been better/firmer.

This is a lovely, simple hotel in a beautiful location. The rooms and the bar area are very comfortable and, although the food menu is limited, it was very tasty. Philip provided outstanding customer service and was very friendly. Importantly, he was able to adapt one of the sandwich options to accommodate my partner's vegan diet. He was also able to make some excellent suggestions for places for us to visit later in our. Would highly recommend.

Our family of four stayed here for our last night in Iceland. Room was comfortable and had enough room for all of us and our bags. Very convenient to get to the Fontana spa, which we enjoyed.it was in a perfect location for us as we did a portion of the Golden Circle the first day then finished the next before our return flight home.
