Ive visited last night for 1 night and everything was amazing! The hostess accepted us with a smile on her face and helped us with everything we asked. We booked triple room, the room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was very tasty! Go visit!

Accommodation options in this part of Iceland are limited. Hótel Laugar Sælingsdal is a coverted school dormitory and, if you approach your stay there with that in mind, realizing you have few other options, you'll be fine. The rooms are small, minimalistic but clean. It was in the description, but not having a private bathroom/shower is, at the very least, inconvenient and more than a little wierd. Modulate your expectations and you'll be fine.

We camped by the hotel which is located in a gorgeous area. There are three waterfalls, bountiful hiking trails and a superb old-school outdoor pool. The staff was amazingly hospitable, friendly, and amicable.
