Hotel Laekur

Hotel Laekur is a stunning hotel with 25 rooms, in view of Hekla volcano and the glacier of Eyjafjallajokull. Travellers seeking a far-flung place to stay, well-positioned to access the South Coast and Golden Circle, will find this a perfect base.

Location & Nearby

Hotel Laekur sits ten minutes from the rural village of Hella, a beautiful corner of Iceland where visitors can find services such as tours, groceries and gas. This places it in the geothermal south-east, with surroundings of mountains, glaciers, volcanoes and rural bliss.

As such, exploring the South Coast sightseeing route from the hotel could not be easier; Seljalandsfoss waterfall, the first major attraction, is just 35 minutes down the Ring Road.

Similarly, Hotel Laekur will allow you to reach the sites of the Golden Circle without trouble; the Geysir geothermal area is an hour and ten minutes away, and Gullfoss Waterfall and Thingvellir National Park can be reached from there in another ten and forty minutes respectively.
