I’d definitely recommend or come back here myself. The lady at reception (didn’t catch her name) was lovely, she even checked us in 2 hours early free of charge and gave us a complimentary 30 minutes hot tub (i used this on my birthday which was lovely!) the hotel is clean and rooms are spacious with a brilliant mountain view. We had supermarket 30 seconds down the road as well as some fast food places which was convenient as we had lots of things booked. The staff we were friendly and the tours that Hotel Laxnes have on their website are great. We did northern lights and golden circle through their website and it was brilliant.

Hotel Laxnes is an unique, quaint hotel with various artifacts on display on the second floor, illustrating farming life in Iceland in times past. The Icelandic poet and author, Halldór Kiljan Laxnes, who won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1955, is also featured, including a large mural of him on the outside wall as you approach the building. He used to live on the Þingvellir road, just a few miles away. The hotel is surrounded by trees and is situated at Háholt, next to a KFC, a filling station, kiosks and a main bus stop, with frequent buses into Reykjavík and a once a day bus to Akureyri.

Stayed here for our first night when doing the ring road around Iceland. We were a bit taken aback when we first walked in as, on first impressions, it seemed a bit dingy, reception wasn’t obvious, and it turned out that we had to check in with the girl behind the bar who was eating sushi! Things got much better after this, and first impressions can be misleading. The room was great, a really good size, and very comfortable. It’s a bit out of the way, but there is a supermarket and KFC nearby if you need provisions. No complaints at all and a decent enough place for a one night stopover.

Our room was clean, with a comfortable bed and the convenience of a small kitchenette and an electric kettle for tea and coffee, which was provided. A quaint pub was on the property and although they did not have a kitchen to provide dinner there were local options nearby and, they did offer and traditional Icelandic breakfast in the morning as well as offer a delicious lamb soup that we had for lunch while staying there. The staff was friendly, attentive, and helpful. I highly recommend staying here if you're going to be in the area.

Anna was genuinely friendly--she made us feel as though we had a friend in Iceland so our stay wonderful! She helped us select a tour that picked up at our hotel. She even added gluten-free food to the standard breakfast menu. All of the staff were friendly, spoke English and made us feel so welcome. We liked the location because it was outside the city yet convenient for going to the town and it had free parking. Close by were several restaurants, plus grocery store, drug store. Our room had a wonderful view of the mountains.
