We stayed for 5 nights in March at Hotel Laxnes and I'd definitely return! It's clean, comfortable and friendly. The staff are great at recommending trips and things to do and can arrange trips and car hire while you're there so you don't need to commit to anything before you get there by prebooking trips.

What an ace hotel, tonnes of the character of iceland very quirky we loved it.. Fantastic location, out in a small town so nice and rural, but only 15 mins from Reykyavik where we went for trips.. Rooms spacious, clean and has stunning veiws of the mountains from the windows. Definitely not a boring 'chain' hotel!.. As for the staff,... More

Though close enough to Reykjavik and other attractions, first room that was offered was decidedly not charming! the Hallway smelled horribly and the room smelled of disinfectant. Bathroom was tiny. Offered another room which was somewhat nicer but available for only the first day of the two. Only other room was a suite so paid the surcharge and upgraded. Room... More

For our first trip to Iceland we decided to stay a little away from the city center and get in touch with nature. Hotel Laxnes is amazing! It is surrounded by beautiful hiking trails and streams, extremely close to mountains. The morning view is absolutely amazing. It is also only a short city bus ride to Reykavik center and we... More

Hotel Laxnes was perfect for our needs on our recent photography trip - the ideal `launch pad` to hit the road early in the morning and get into the interior (north, South or East) with the minimum of hassle. Coming back at night (or the following day depending on Aurora activity) we knew we would have a warm room and... More

This basic B&B certainly makes up for its out-of-town location with friendly staff and great service. Rooms are simple - but you don't come to Iceland to hang out in your room. Breakfast is buffet style and hearty enough to set you up for a day's exploring. Lovely staff member (sorry, didn't catch your name Mr Helpful South African Accent... More

We chose the Hotel Laxnes because of the good reviews on Trip adviser. It is a Budget style motel with fantastic views of the mountains to the North. The room were fine although a bit hot for the first couple of days. Sean and the rest of the staff were great and helped in advice and tours. We chose the... More

We spend a wonderful week at Hotel Laxnes. Shaun was fantastic in recommending trips and tips around Iceland and Mosfellsbaer. The hotel has a great view of the mountain range (ask for a mountain view room) and there are plenty of walks in the area. The room was a little basic but comfortable. The hotel bar and breakfast area are... More

The Hotel Laxnes is a lovely clean budget hotel with friendly staff and complementary breakfast and WiFi. We rented studio rooms which were large with a nice view. The hotel is located in the outskirts of town but next to a bus stop which allows you to be in town within fifteen minutes. There is a convenience store across the... More
