Dinner without leaving the valley

After a day exploring North Iceland, sometimes the best plan is to come home. Join us for dinner at Hotel Laugar, enjoy a drink in the lounge, or take your glass outside onto the sun terrace when the Icelandic weather is kind to us. Our kitchen focuses on fresh, local ingredients and Icelandic favourites, including dishes such as Arctic char and Icelandic lamb.

A reservation is recommended: call +354 844 3259 or email, as there is no online booking for the restaurant. Guests staying elsewhere are welcome for breakfast and dinner. Tell us about allergies or special dietary requirements when you book, and we will do what we can.

Start your Icelandic day well

Breakfast is always included at Hotel Laugar. Our generous breakfast buffet gives you everything you need before heading out into North Iceland, whether you’re setting off early for the Diamond Circle, taking the road towards Mývatn or simply enjoying a slower morning in Reykjadalur.

A typical morning on our buffet starts like this:

  • Breads, pastries and crackers
  • Skyr, yoghurt and cereals
  • Eggs, bacon and herring
  • Cheese, ham and fresh veggies
  • Coffee, tea and juices

Gluten free on request. Lunch packs on request, at a cost to take on the road.

We are a long way from the nearest supplier and live by the delivery days, so the spread changes a little from day to day. What never changes: there is always plenty, and it is always good.
