Lækjaborgir Guesthouse also includes a terrace with a seating area. Perfect location, one of our highlight stays in Iceland. Loved the scenery. We spent the night in a little house-cabin. Loved it. Check in was very easy, clear directions from the owners, and since it was paid we didn't have any restrictions. Loved it.
