Bjork Guesthouse, a property with a garden, is located in Laugarvatn, 25 km from Thingvellir National Park, 29 km from Geysir, as well as 39 km from Gullfoss Waterfall. This guest house provides free private parking and full-day security. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a picnic area. What a wonderful place to stay! Perfect location for all the sights at the golden circle and a good starting point for the highlands (F35). The owners care a lot, even before you arrive, everything was very clean, I had a big bathroom. For this price the best guesthouse I stayed so far.

Guesthouse Bitra B&B’s simple rooms have either private or shared bathroom facilities. They provide views of Mount Hekla or the surrounding countryside.

Bitra Guesthouse is a 40-minute drive from Reykjavík. Thingvellir National Park and Geysir are 50 km away. Northern Lights spotting is possible during winter. Breakfast was great. The house itself was very interesting, an old woman's prison apparently.

The guest house is equipped with a flat-screen TV. The kitchen comes with a dishwasher, an oven and a toaster and there is a private bathroom with a hair dryer and free toiletries. This guest house is non-smoking and soundproof. Easy check-in, quick wapp response to question. Very new building, so everything still nice and new. Room was of a good size, everything was very clean. Comfortable beds, great shower. Room has outside door which leads onto a patio. Nice views outside of the mountains and also some horses nearby. Very big and clean shared kitchen area, that also includes a sitting area with couches. Great location, very near Gullfoss waterfall. We did not use the kitchen for dinner, only for breakfast, and it had everything we needed. We were the only guests which made for a lovely quiet stay.
