View just right above our hostel !!!!
Staying at this hostel in Iceland was honestly unforgettable. The location alone makes it special — but what truly made it magical was seeing the aurora dancing right above the hostel rooftop. Stepping outside at night and watching the Northern Lights shimmer across the sky without even leaving the property felt surreal.
The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and it had that perfect mix of comfort and adventure. After a long day exploring Iceland’s dramatic landscapes, it was amazing to come back somewhere warm and relaxed — and then be rewarded with a sky full of green lights.
If you’re coming to Iceland hoping to see the Northern Lights, this place gives you front-row seats. I would absolutely stay here again. 🌌✨

Beautiful hotel and excellent location (I had a view of the main square and parliament building). The staff was very helpful, professional and friendly. Food in the restaurant was superb with selected dishes from the local cuisine. The Spa design has taken inspiration from Icelandic nature in both colours, materials and textures, and is a fantastic addition to the experience with thermal pool, steam room, sauna, cold mist/rain and cosy relaxation areas.
Would highly recommend choosing this hotel when visiting Reykjavik, or using it as a base when exploring further around.

**100/100 - Excellent!**
This place feels as warm and inviting as home. The location is easy to find, and the room is exceptionally clean and comfortable. The hot tub is a must-try! Breakfast features traditional Icelandic dishes with a great variety that truly fuels your journey. I highly recommend this stay!
The biggest plus of this hotel is its direct access to the airport bus. It's also quite convenient, about a 10-minute walk to the bus stop for all day tours. Across the street, there's a public bus that goes directly to Rainbow Street, the Cathedral, and other places, costing around 38 RMB (about 38RMB by credit card) per ride. Just a 5-minute walk to the left from the hotel entrance, there's a fairly large supermarket where you can buy bread, sandwiches, fruits, yogurt, etc.
However, I really have to complain about the hotel rooms. The bathroom being small is one thing, but in the twin room, there wasn't even enough space for two suitcases. If we managed to open a suitcase, there was absolutely no room to walk. What's more, we had booked five consecutive nights and pre-paid the room fees through Trip.com. But on the third day of our stay, the hotel informed us they received a government tax adjustment notice and showed us a piece of paper, demanding we pay an additional tax. We were forced to pay an extra 27.5 euros, which is absolutely unreasonable!!
Check-in was pretty smooth. I was allocated the room just above the main entrance as such, it can be quite noisy whenever people get in or out of the hostel with the door slamming and some vibration felt! The bathroom and wc are fairly clean and tidy. Very cosy common area to mingle and make new friends. Kitchen has all the basic necessity. I especially like the small area right outside my room where i can have a light meal and nice view of the surroundings. Bought the unlimited bus rides ticket via the Klappid app for travel within the Reykjavik capital city and bus svc 12 is just few steps away. If time permits, you can even walk to the coastal area for sight-seeing. Overall, i am very satisfied with my 8 nights stay at Laekur hostel!
Conveniently located at the entrance to Reykjavik.
Second-floor room with no elevator.
The room was spacious and had a bathtub, making this the only place we stayed after seven nights in Iceland.
Even luxury hotels didn't have bathtubs.
My husband was delighted with his first bath after driving about 2,000 kilometers.
The bathroom and washroom had poor drainage, so water overflowed from somewhere and flooded the entire place.
The room wasn't particularly clean, but
it's a good option as a hotel to stay before entering (or leaving) Reykjavik.
There are restaurants nearby, like KFC and Sabue.
There was no hair dryer in the room, but I think you could borrow one from the front desk if you needed one.
We realized this in the morning and had to go down to the front desk to borrow one.
Breakfast was minimal.
No hot meals.
Also, the serving area was small and crowded.
Nothing particularly noteworthy, but overall it was an average hotel.
By average, I don't mean badly; it wasn't the best, but it was passable.
I hope this review is helpful.

They even gave us breakfast (with vegetables and fruits, which is worth two or three hundred dollars in Iceland). The restaurant is very beautiful and I like to eat yan fish. I like it in the UK. The only drawback is that there is no elevator. Fortunately, we live on the first floor. The environment is amazing, and the two terraces face the cathedral! The milk at the 24-hour coffee shop is also delicious.

The location is convenient. There is a Xiaozhu supermarket downstairs. It is close to bus stop No. 9, which is convenient for local tour groups to gather and pick up. The room is clean. The counter staff provides early check-in service, but the room lighting is a little dim.

Very good location and convenient for foods.
However, it is very noisy and disturbing especially during Friday & Saturday night where the bars are open till way into the weee hours that peoples are shouting and cursing down on the street till the morning and the street is dirty with debris and bottles or cans…
Not recommended for couples or family with Children specially during the weekend.
Very Good

GGuest UserWow, I really loved this hostel! The front desk service was excellent, and the facilities were new and complete. The room's view and comfort were outstanding, and I slept incredibly well every night. I'm truly grateful! 🙏 Highly recommend!
GGuest UserThe hotel rooms are spacious, the service is excellent, and the location is convenient. Right next to the hotel entrance, you'll find the airport shuttle stop and pick-up/drop-off points for various tour groups. The Chinese Embassy in Iceland is also nearby. It's about a 15-20 minute walk to Hallgrímskirkja Church, and on the way, you'll pass through the city's bustling commercial street, where many shops sell souvenirs and gifts.
BBailidaiwangThis hotel offers great value for money, especially considering how expensive things are in Iceland. We stayed for a week and it only cost us about 2500 per person. The hotel staff are incredibly efficient; they typically bring whatever you need within five minutes. For example, when we mentioned our room was cold, they immediately brought a heater. We also requested bowls and an extra blanket, and those were delivered within five minutes as well.
WWeixiaodeliwuThe hotel is very close to the city center, especially since we rented a car, and there are plenty of supermarkets and shops nearby. The restaurant downstairs serves delicious dinner, and the breakfast is surprisingly rich, even offering instant noodles!
GGuest UserNice hotel, very close to the city center and right by the sea. The room design is great, although everything in the mini-bar is chargeable. On the bright side, you can get cold water directly from the bathroom tap. Overall, it was a good experience.
AAnonymous UserMy friend and I had two large suitcases, and we could both lay them flat – the room was really spacious and comfortable. The only minor thing was that the duvet was a bit small, even for a woman, but it was very clean. Overall, very satisfied!
MMiyayuuI stayed in a dormitory. It's a very clean hotel. There are also plenty of toilets. The kitchen is equipped with basic cooking utensils like frying pans and knives, so you can cook your own meals.
DDaniel CurtisI loved this hotel and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it! One of the outstanding features is that they give you a cell phone to use during your stay. The phone already has helpful apps installed for taxis, restaurants, etc. We are from the US so did not have international cell service so having this phone with us was helpful, especially for using maps. Reykjavik is a walkable city, and the hotel is located on the most popular street, so it has easy access to everything. The staff was very helpful and there is also a bar/restaurant onsite with amazing cocktails. There is an included breakfast buffet which featured hot and cold items. We had a room on the 4th floor that included access to large patio. We loved this feature as we could wake up and go outside to check the weather and enjoy the views of the mountains and water in the distance. The hotel was also extremely clean. Another nice touch was that they knew we were celebrating our wedding anniversary so when we entered our room, we found a bottle of wine, chocolate and romantic decorations!
GGuest UserThe room was exactly as pictured, and the location was fantastic, right in the city center with a bus stop just outside – very convenient for getting around. It came with a hairdryer and all the kitchen utensils you could need, making it perfect for group trips or family vacations. Definitely recommended! Plus, you can even see the Northern Lights from downstairs at the hotel.
