March 2024 - Very nice place to lodge away from it all. Pleasant warm rooms and amenities including hot tub and sauna. Be prepared for the wind. Breakfast was great. We appreciated the wake up call for the auroras, but unfortunately it was too cloudy to see very much of it. We enjoyed our two night stay very well.

Very beautiful property. Really loved the three twin bed option. Please make sure you take advantage of their breakfast! Very good quality. Highly recommend and although no aurora our night, they have someone in watch until midnight and will call you to let you know. A few minor complaints which is that the shower curtain was disgusting at the bottom and had all sorts of rust colored staining, Bedspread green topper had a stain, and the water felt slimy due to a little too much water softener. Otherwise, absolutely gorgeous and highly recommend.

Wonderful place. The rooms were clean and very comfortable. Great hot tub and sauna. The restaurant was nice. Great places to walk all around the property we got to meet some of the horses and sheep on the neighboring farm!

Beautiful little cottage for our family of five. Only a small fridge and no kitchen, but on-site restaurant and bar looked good (we didn’t eat there). Lovely location, although a little off the main road. Decent hot tub and sauna. Overall recommend their little cottages, good value.

Perfect Stay
This was our favorite accommodation. We chose the cottage and were so happy we did. After staying in small hotel rooms, this gave us a chance to stretch out and relax. The farm is beautiful and was surrounded by majestic mountains. We took a walk around the property and were greeted by a friendly little border collie who showed us the way. The cottage itself was new, very clean and bedding was comfortable. The variety of shows on the Smart TV suited us perfectly. I would highly recommend staying a couple of night at Hotel Laekur.

The bed mattress was rock hard we ended up sleeping on top of the comforters. Food and beverage was very over priced even for Iceland but the soup was delicous. Highly recommend avoiding the breakfast, not worth the 2,423kr ($19USD).

The staff was very warm, welcome, and inviting, but the room we were in left something to be desired. The door was extremely finicky and several times we were unable to lock it at all, and perhaps the staff couldn't either, because we came back from day trips to find our room had not been locked two times. Our TV had a blown speaker, the faucet was loose, and the mattresses were pretty uncomfortable.

Lovely place with a great breakfast
A lovely hotel in middle of nowhere which we were looking for. Very warm welcome from the owner which was great upon arrival. The breakfast was amazing, few homemade things which was great! The only thing to improve would be to have a proper blinds in the room as we had a corner room and people could see into our room. Otherwise really great place to stay!

If you need a great place to see Northern Lights in Hella, this is the place. We saw Northern Lights for the first time on the first night we arrived in Iceland. We received warm welcome by the owner, Stuart when we arrived at Hotel Lækur after 8pm. He prepared late night dinner for us. The tastes of soup and Char fish are excellent. Our room was facing north. We saw Northern Lights in the front of our room for almost 2 hours. We could go back to our room anytime to warm up. The skies were clear, revealing thousands of bright stars including The Big Dipper, and it was rather windy and cold. We will stay in the same room next time we go.

enjoy staying there, it would be a good place to see northern light as it is wide open area and remote from main road. And nice breakfast as well. but unfortunately the sound proof isn’t good enough when you room is above the restaurant
