Hveragerði … I lived there for many years. It's a great place to visit for anyone. Try the pizza place -- it's fantastic!
Hveragerði … I visited Hveragerdi three years ago. I found it a calm and mystical place, you just have to chill there! Walking is fantastic and there is a restaurant that uses underground thermal water to cook with, wonderful stuff. I have booked a flight for my sister to visit in May, but unfortunately cannot remember the name of the very cosy hostel we stayed at and unfortunately there appears to be no hostel there now.
HI - Laugarvatn Hostel in Laugarvatn … We stayed here one night in August '07 after arriving from Germany. Our family room was very spacious and the hostel owner was very nice. We couldn't pay with credit card, but a bank is in direct neighbourhood. We booked breakfast and it is served in their private house. So we could find out how Iceland people live.
Generally you have to take off your shoes when entering a hostel or a house in Iceland. The hostel is near the Geysir and the waterfall Gullfoss. It has been the best hostel we visited in Iceland.

The hostel is extremely clean, modern, and tidy. Rooms can be locked securely. Showers and toilets are spotless.

Mountain Hut Landmannalaugar in Landmannalaugar … Landmannalaugur is a superb place. It is difficult to get to (even the buses have to have 4 wheel drive), but what a better way to spend an evening than enjoying scenic mountains and talking to holidaymakers.
The mountain hut is easy to find - as the bus pulls into the campsite (the only…
