Right in between the country’s capital and the capital of its North, Akureyri, is a brand new and marvelous hotel that goes by the name Hotel Laugarbakki. The grounds all around are steeped in local history and not only the history of outlaws, sorcery and dignitaries. In the year of 1244, the only battle by the coasts of Iceland, The Battle of Flói, took place in its bay.
The times have certainly changed since, but even though the sounds of clashing swords have long been silenced, its echoes can still be discerned in the hotel’s kitchen, where its cooks conjure up the most dazzling dishes for its guests.
Hotel Laugarbakki has fifty-six all-inclusive rooms, a charming restaurant, a gym and hot tubs, helping its guests unwind after long days in the country side. Laugarbakki is also ideal for work trips, as the hotel even has a room for meetings and free Wi-Fi in public areas and every room.
