Lava Hostel
About
For a hostel in Iceland, Lava Hostel gives first-time guests a straightforward base with reception hours split across the day. Hjallabraut, 220 Hafnarfjörður, Islandia is the street address, placing the property in Hafnarfjörður rather than the capital itself. It trades as a hostel within the Hotel category.
Guests arriving for the first time will find the reception open Mo-Su 09:00-14:00, 18:00-22:00, so arrivals need to fall inside those windows. A score of 4 out of 5 comes from 101 reviews, a body of feedback that gives a sense of what earlier guests made of their stays. Hafnarfjörður keeps the property within easy reach of Reykjavik while sitting outside the city's core. The venue runs as a hostel rather than a full-service hotel, which shapes the kind of stay on offer.
Five photographs of the property are published for guests to look over before arriving. The official site at http://lavahostel.is/ carries the venue's own information.
Iceland's weather can turn quickly, with wind, rain and fog all possible on the same day, so layers earn their place in any pack. The island's food leans on cod, haddock, langoustine and harðfiskur, the dried fish commonly eaten with butter. Patronymic surnames ending in -son or -dóttir remain in use, and English is widely understood across the country. Surtsey rose from a volcanic eruption in 1963 and now holds UNESCO World Heritage status, a reminder of how young this land is.
