I found this place as I was looking for a central location not too far from Husavik or Myvatn after spending a night in Akureyri. We spent 2 nights at this farm house and absolutely loved it. The host family was unbelievably sweet and have maintained the property in perfect shape. We saw the northern lights from the open air hot tub. Great breakfasy, spacious acco and close to all the sightseeing nearby. Definitely 5 stars!

We loved the location. Amazing views from the property. Only 10 minutes from town. The stairs to the bedroom loft were narrow and steep and difficult to maneuver for someone with joint issues. Aside from the stairs, we loved it!

Beautiful views! Brand new hotel in akureyi. Very large rooms. With a private bathroom. Nicest hotel I stayed at while in Iceland. Very clean! Wonderful breakfast. The owner was superb! The views from every window of the hotel were amazing.

my stay was fantastic, I will note the door is tricky to figure out, even when staff showed me how. I will note the electrical plug in the room i stayed in (room 1) was very loose and is a fire hazard. otherwise it was a fantastic stay.

My husband and I found the movie Eurovision Song Contest: Story of Fire Saga during the dark months of COVID. It quickly became a favorite feel good movie for us. When I started to plan for my husband's birthday, I decided "We're going to Iceland!" We rented a car to drive from Reykjavik to see this little gem (5 1/2 hours drive each way). I cannot say enough about this town and this little hotel.

Hotel Laxa is not only beautiful (kudos to the designer who make you feel like you are part of the volcanic landscape), its location serves as a great jumping off point for a day of taking in the sights around Myvatn. We arrived from Eglissadir, after stopping at the Mytvan Nature Baths on our way into town. After a fantastic breakfast of eggs, bacon, waffles and a buffet of fresh fruits and vegetables, we spent the next 6 hours taking in all that Myvatn had to offer. I would definitely return...
