Finde Hotels in Akranes

A group of friends going to what we Icelanders call “jólahlaðborð” or Christmas buffet decided to make a week-end of it. Laxárbakki is only about half an hours drive north of Reykjavík, so close enough so that it was not a major roadtrip but far enough to feel like a true get-away. The hotel is family-owned and -run and we got that warm family feeling throughout our stay. The check-in was probably the fastest I have experienced and what a delight to go into our spotless clean hotel-apartment, with our own balcony (although, Iceland in Dec is not really full of balcony moments... 😊) We had our little spa-moment in the hot tub and sauna before getting ready for the buffet. The food was delicious and again that warm family feeling was present with three generations working in the restaurant that night. After a night filled with excellent food, drinks and lots of laughter we got a real good night’s sleep in a new and comfortable bed in a very quiet environment. I will be recommending this place to friends and family looking for a nice get-away-treat and also those going for “jólahlaðborð”. For foreign visitors I can also recommend both the hotel and restaurant if you want to stay close to but not in Reykjavík. It is right off the main road (so no time wasted on a detour) but in a quiet and beautiful spot. p.s. the photo is of the balcony and view from our room

在雷克雅未克的碼頭邊上，這個位置靠極光中心藝術中心都很近，附近吃飯的餐廳也多，離商業中心近，可以購物。不過酒店停車位可能不太好找，我停在了正門口的路邊上。房間品質不錯，不過窗外的廣場施工，雖然沒有任何噪聲，但是我們的房型沒有風景。照片是附近的小豬超市區域。

My wife and I recently spent a very pleasant 5 nights at this hotel. It is nicely situated in the marina area slightly away from the city centre, but still with many local restaurants. Our room (on the top floor as specifically requested) was small but perfectly formed with an excellent view over the Marina. The bed was very comfortable, the shower was powerful and the the wi-fi was excellent. The room had all we needed, really, apart from, perhaps, some drawers for clothing. There was space on some open shelves but we prefer to have our clothes 'put away' and not on show. We had no problem with noise entering our room either from the outside or from neighbouring rooms. We took breakfast on a couple of occasions and it was a decent buffet affair, albeit pricey. The hotel staff were friendly, welcoming, polite and very helpful in arranging excursions and advising on things to do in Iceland. We didn't take dinner in the hotel, but we did find an excellent gastropub literally over the road from the hotel.
