The rooms are clean and well equipped and the staff are extremely knowledgeable about the attractions all around Reykjavik. They will happily phone and book any excursions you would like to go on. The views of Mount Esja... More

We visited Hotel Laxnes in March 2013, if like us your arrival at the hotel will be after midnight (when reception is closed), contact the hotel beforehand and they will send instructions on how to locate your room key. We found all the staff to be nice and friendly and there was a relaxed atmosphere around the place. The hotel... More

Our stay in May of 2013 was very satisfactory. The hotel staff was very personable. We were allowed to check in early, and any inquiries we made in regards to activities were answered in a friendly and informative manner. We stayed in room #15, which is considered a studio. There is a refrigerator, warming plate and some kitchen utensils (the... More

This reasonably priced hotel is located on the outskirts of Reykjavik, quite a way from the city centre, but in a very pleasant area. There is a bus to the centre at the door and the various tour companies will pick up customers at the hotel. The airport bus services the hotel. There is a FWD vehicle available for hire... More

It seemed alot nicer online, but it was still a decent hotel. They had old style keys with a huge 6 inch tag on it so you couldn't just slip it in your pocket. I often had trouble getting into my room because my lock would jam and not fully unlock until I played around with it for a while.... More

This affordable and well-run hotel is located in a town on the eastern outskirts of Reykjavik. It's well located if you have a car and need a nice place to stay near Reykjavik but outside of town.
