Only a few steps away from Laugardalur, the green river valley of the city. Our name Laekur refers to Lækur which is a small river or a stream in Icelandic. The Laugardalur area is the ancient geothermal hotspot of the city. A hidden geothermal stream runs under the street outside our house.

We are in one of the most privileged and nicest areas of the city, near to some of the finest landmarks and attractions of the city such as Laugardalsvollur Stadium, The Icelandic Phallological Museum, National Museum of Iceland and Sólfarið - Sun Voyager, amongst other renowned spots of the city.

Loved the place! I stayed here for a month and had a great experience. Had so many meaningful interactions with people from around the world. The beds were comfy, the place was clean, and the environment was friendly. There were some issues when I first got there, but the staff were great and took care of the issues once they were brought up. After that, everything was perfect! If you have an issue, just let the staff know! The Cafe downstairs has a wonderful crew too and the food is great!

Super friendly and flexible staff. When we arrived it turned out there was a problem with room in the dorm we were immediately offered guest room accommodation. Great standard, looks far on the map but it is really just a 15 min walk. Great facilities, clean and quiet.
