The staff who checked me in were absolutely lovely, the kitchen has what you need, the bed was super comfortable with darkening blinds on the windows, great shower, and great location. As long as you're okay with a hostel, 10/10 would recommend in Reykjavik. ##### Jason Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mark May 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities It's a nice, clean hostel in a decent location. The beds are comfortable and it has good kitchen and washroom facilities. Self check-in is convenient and cafe staff (who double as hostel staff) are helpful when needed, but the separation of hostel and cafe makes for a somewhat impersonal experience. As for location, there are a few attractions nearby (municipal swimming pool/hot tubs, botanical garden, and oceanfront walk), as well as basic amenities (small grocery store, bakery, etc.). But it's a long walk from old town Reykjavik, where most of the restaurants and cafes are. Overall, Laekur provides a good and affordable base for exploring Reykjavik, but next time I would probably stay closer to old town. ##### Mark Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Michaeline Jun 16, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Perfectly fine hostel on the edge of the city This is actually my first time staying in a hostel. Checkin was easy enough, in the restaurant downstairs. There's no keys to the rooms (keypads with a code) so for checkout I just left. The spiral staircase to get to the rooms is a real pain if you have heavy bags or have limited mobility. I stayed in a 6-person female dorm with bunkbeds. Every bunk has a dedicated outlet and lamp. In early June the clientele seemed to be mostly younger people but I didnt hear anyone being rowdy during typical sleep hours. The communal kitchen needs more frequent cleanings. There are several showers and toilets so there was no line to bathe. You can feasibly walk to downtown Reykjavik from this location. There is ONLY street parking so you need to find a spot and stick to it. There's a bus stop across the street BUT the Klappid app is broken (at least for Americans). You need to find a convenience store to buy a pass if you want to ride the bus. This was a good first impression for staying in a hostel ##### Michaeline Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James Apr 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was an awesome small hostel, one of the best I've ever stayed at. It's obvious whoever designed it has been a backpacker themselves as small things like free lockers (if you have a padlock (you can rent on if you don't, but who doesn't have a couple on their zippers on their bags?) are located outside of the dorm rooms. Important as someone looking for things isn't noisily doing that in room with others. Likewise the toilets and showers (all seperate individual stand alones, I think there were about six showers, and probably the same amount of toilets, were not like poorly designed dorm rooms, inside the dorm room. This meant if you wanted to get up earlier in the morning and use them, you didn't have to worry about who was complaining they had an early flight needing access, as there's plenty to choose from. They were high quality showers with both a normal showerhead and one on a hose you could switch between. The only thing I would have maybe liked was a few hooks in the change room part of the shower. The bed was really comfortable. I liked how they have this brilliant idea of giving you a magnet with a letter on it that you put on the upper or lower bunk that you have chosen, so any later arrival know that bed is taken, and two if a tour company or someone rings and leaves a message they know which bed is yours to leave a note on. These are the kind of things that only someone who has been backpacking, walked into a room and can't tell which bed is avai ##### James Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Josue Nov 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities good stay clean room good staff ##### Josue Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Karl Sep 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### A good option! The Laugardalslaug spa is only a few minutes away.

I was worried about the lack of a reception, but everything was well organized and worked out in the end! Appreciated the clean conditions of the property thanks to the hardworking cleaning staff.

Location is a 25-minute walk to the downtown area, but there is lots to do in the west that is more locals-oriented. The public pool is about a 6 minute walk away, and there's a fantastic bakery around the corner from the hostel. ##### Cheryl Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandra Jul 9, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I really liked how convenient it was located for me.
