Hótel Laugarvatn, hotel in Laugarvatn

Featuring a bar and shared lounge, Hótel Laugarvatn is 15 minutes’ drive from Thingvellir National Park. WiFi and parking are free.

very good view of the school, it was great being woken up by the kids screaming while playing four square at seven in the morning, and the delighted chatter of the tourists in the hallway who seemingly couldn’t figure out how to open the door, causing lots of noise for a while. It was close to the spa, and a strange little restaurant, which made it convenient to get to once you’ve soaked in the hot water for hours. Staff was pleasant, and beds were clean.

    I loved this place.

    I loved this place. It was perfect location for different places to visit such as Geyster, Pingvilllar (National Park), etc. The accommodation was cosy and lovely. The owners were friendly, helpful and thoughtful; always informed me and my friends about the weather and issues with the hire car. We loved the scenery of the lake especially visiting the hot geothermal bath nearly every night. the last night before we returned to the city, we saw Northern Lights! that was the highlight of the short break. We would go back and stay there again. Loved it.

    We chose it as a night stop between golden circle and Vik; village has thermal baths but we had already had thermal spa at blue lagoon, so we didn’t try these baths; There are at least three places for dinner :) The village is not worth for a longer stay or you can find a more attractive place ;)

    Extremely quiet place.. not much to do.

    Extremely quiet place.. not much to do. If you want a quiet place to recharge and do nothing, this is your place. We stayed 2 nights which is maybe too much for this little spot. Enjoyed onion ring burgers at Goodburger!

    My guesthouse was comfortable and pleasant.

    My guesthouse was comfortable and pleasant. I wished I had more time to enjoy the Fortuna. My hike at 10pm was delightful. I cannot recall ever smelling fresher air. The lupines, birches and pines were lovely. It was easy to get to all of the sites on the Golden Circle from there. Would gladly go back.

    This cabin was our favorite out of the three places we stayed at during our time in Iceland. The owners were responsive and check in was a easy. The cabin was large and spacious with a fridge and microwave if you needed it plus a small sitting area. Well decorated and very clean. Getting to the property was easy and in a great location to everything in the area. 10 minutes to Fontana Baths

    Best guesthouse in Iceland that we stayed in 7 days! Very spacious living and kitchen areas. Lots of cabinets. Nice wall to wall wood paneling including ceiling. Super clean. Close to Fontana spa and Efstidalur II, Kerid, bruarfoss and Gullfoss. Host provided milk for coffee and tea. There is even a bbq grill outdoor. Great privacy and best value for family traveling. Highly recommended!

    Nice to have breakfast provided in the morning with a cute little shop to peruse. Bedrooms/bathrooms were overall comfortable and clean. Location was awesome coming from Reykjavik and spending the day at Thingvellir National Park. Cute little town with an awesome hot spring, Laugarvatn Fontana, and delicious dinner food at the hostel down the street.

    The farmhotel was extremely cozy providing authentic Icelandic experience. The food at both dinner and breakfast was extremely delicious especially the homemade ice cream. The restaurant looks over the farm with their cows. It’s truly amazing experience.

    We liked the beautiful views, being near nature and close to places we wanted to visit in the Golden Circle. It was very windy some days and it was really amazing to experience the powerful Icelandic winds and see the sky clear for the stars at night!
