Reviews of Laugar Guesthouse

Lovely little cottage, big windows with good blinds, very cosy. The owner was very friendly; even bought us some baked snacks (which we very rudely didn't eat because of dietary reasons). Had everything we needed; wished we could have stayed longer. Straightforward heating in the cottage (just adjust radiators).

Amazing! The hosts went above and beyond in making it special even for our single night (Thanks for the cookies!). Can only recommend!

Cosy little gem during our only night in north Iceland. Very comfortable bedroom and homely decor. Welcoming host who accommodated our late check-in. Would definitely come back if visiting north iceland again!

Beautiful setting, charming house

Very kind and nice host. Warm welcoming when I arrived and introduce his place.

- We were in the Laugar area for 2 days, day 1 of 2 was at Guesthouse Hvítafell and we spent the 2nd day here. - This has been the best stay so far on the ring road. They seem to be doing everything right. - The hosts were very gracious and accommodating. The house has a nice fully equipped kitchen in the sunroom which feels so good to be in. - The hosts left us a small plate of cakes and cookies which were so good, thank you for that. - Easily accessible and quiet place to be.

- The hot water took some time to show up, it's probably because of the distance to the water heater, might be an issue in the winter, but works fine in the summer.

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy cabin. The kitchen was by far the cleanest we've come across during our travels in Iceland – everything from the plates and cups to the cutlery was spotless and well-organised. It made cooking and dining in real pleasure. The hosts were very welcoming and kind, and we especially appreciated the thoughtful touch of homemade welcome cookies – they were absolutely delicious! Their hospitality truly made us feel at home. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-cared-for stay in Iceland.

The cottage itself is quite compact, and there wasn’t much space to fully open two suitcases at once – but we managed 😀

Excellent central location for a couple to explore Lake Myvatn, Husavik and Akureyi regions in North Iceland. Beautifully located in rural setting with great views. Actual cottage is lovely, tastefully furnished with every little detail thought of, including full kitchen facilities, verandah, plenty of tourist information. Hosts were good communicators and very helpful. Highly recommended.

Nil!

Laugar Guesthouse is even more charming than the photos. It's in a serene setting on a small hill overlooking the owners house but very private and very quiet. It has a small kitchen and a beautiful front porch for sitting outside when the weather is good. It's close to quite a few tourist attractions and there are restaurants nearby. We'd definitely recommend it.

Delightful cottage with ample space (we book the larger unit). Quality fittings and touches. Clothesline on verandah. Instant coffee, ground coffee, tea bags, cereal/granola provided. Dining table and chairs; sofa chairs too! Black out shades; bedroom had door that separated it from the living room (useful when one partner sleeps earlier). Nice grounds on all sides.

Nice host, warm welcome Very nice guesthouse Feel like your home

The cottage was very private and quiet in a lovely location. The hosts were very kind and helpful--the wife made us welcome cookies and cake. The kitchen was well equipped and the bathroom was a nice size. Excellent wifi.

One of the best accommodations in Iceland, which I would recommend to everyone if they find themselves in this area. You have everything you need - a well-equipped kitchen, cleand bathroom, bedroom and living area. Mr. Baldur was a wonderful host and we had a nice conversation. His wife made very tasty homemade cakes.

Warm and cosy

Nothing except the flies

Everything was amazing! Easily the best place we stayed during our whole 2 week travel in Iceland! This place is the proof that when someone puts their heart into something, it can turn out the best thing ever! Very cute, ideal size hut with everything someone needs: comfortable bed, spacious clean bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, relaxing sofa both inside and outside, very nice location and view. The hosts live just opposite and can be present if you need anything. They also facilitated us by allowing a bit later check in although not convenient for them without any problem. A few homemade cookies were also waiting for us as a little welcome treat. There is no better place to go around. Definitely worth the money, if we had more time, we would stay just to enjoy the calmness of the place.

It is soooo difficult to find something for this section...

Perfect little cottage. Clean, bright and had everything we needed and then some (I don’t think there was laundry but we didn’t expect or need it). Location wasn’t in the middle of a tourist area but in a field at a lovely home in a small town easily accessible to all destinations- Akureyri, Husavik and Myvatn. The hosts baked fresh goodies that were delicious. We wished we could have stayed longer.

Nothing. If you’re looking for a location in a hotspot then this place isn’t right for you. We were looking for comfort, quiet and convenience and the location couldn’t have been better.

Set in a “green” location, grassy slopes and forest behind. Could hear the birds so a nice peaceful environment away from the Myvatn hordes! Well located for visiting different areas. Could have stayed a 3rd day but had to move on. The house was modern, clean, spacious and well equipped. Our hosts were very friendly, spoke good English so had perfect communication and we were welcomed with delicious home cooked biscuits. Petrol station and supermarket within 5 mins. Prices always difficult to rate as Iceland is expensive.

Nothing.

So nice and clean. In a location that was quiet, but close to many places we wanted to see in the Mývatn area as well as Husavik. Very comfortable little cabin. Comfortable bed and furnishings. Having a tv with Netflix was a nice bonus. Hosts were welcoming and even provided us with a home baked treat when we arrived.

We missed having a little freezer for our ice packs. That’s a minor thing though.
