The Hotel
Dwarfed by its wild and mountainous surrounds, Hotel Laxnes invites holidaymakers to explore the capital city of Iceland. Nature lovers may take advantage of this abode's location and visit Mosfellsbær town, also known as “the green town”, where outdoor activities such as hiking, walking and fishing are up for grabs.
Guests are invited to individually designed rooms, decked in white colour schemes and kitted out with en suite facilities and complimentary Wi-Fi.
The hotel offers an option to enjoy buffet breakfast and a choice of traditional dishes throughout the day, that may be savoured in the hotel's bar, while evening may be spent playing a game of pool or watching sports games on the flat-screen TV.
The Northern Lights Tour
Visitors are invited to take part in a unique experience which happens at night time in the Northern Hemisphere and can be seen on dark winter nights. One of nature’s most spectacular displays appears in the sky in the form of different shapes, proportions and patterns, known as the Northern Lights.
Golden Circle Tour
Travellers are invited to see Iceland's natural phenomena including hot springs and waterfalls. The tour starts with a visit the geothermal area of Nesjavellir and the Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Other highlights include a stopover at the tumbling Gullfoss waterfall, followed by a stroll through the Geysir and Strokkur geyser fields and a visit to the horticultural village of Hveragerði.
Blue Lagoon Tour
Those who prefer thermal escapades can visit the famous Blue Lagoon. Travellers can take a leisurely stroll or spend a day idling in the natural hot springs and bathing in geothermal mud believed to revitalise the skin. Towels and robes are available to hire, and each outdoor pool also comes with views of the lava field surrounding the area. On-site geothermal sauna and spa offer a wide range of massages and treatments, while unique skincare products can be bought in the shop.
Groupon's Guide To Reykjavik
One of the safest and cleanest cities of modern times, Reykjavik is located on the south-western coast of Iceland and it is also the world’s northernmost capital city.
With more than 100 pubs and clubs, many of them found on Laugavegur Street, a wide choice of beers, Iceland’s drink of choice since 1989, are available for sampling. An iconic landmark of the city, the looming Hallgrimskirkja Church offers visitors panoramic views of the city. Standing 15 metres high and weighing 25 tons, the church's pipe organ is one of its key features, while the statue of Leifur Eiriksson, the first European to discover America, guards the entrance. The capital’s name translates to 'Smoky Bay', after the columns of steam that rise from the hot springs, which can still be visited today.
Reykjavik has a subpolar oceanic climate combined with temperate features due to the warm waters of the Gulf Stream. Global warming makes for a convenient climate, and although there are occasional droughts, visitors may benefit from 24 hours of daylight. Autumn is expected to be wet and cold, with temperatures under 10°C while the days are getting shorter and rainfall becomes frequent. During winter, the sky is cloudy with only four hours of daylight and the weather is cold with temperatures ranging from -3° to 2°C.
