I stayed at Apotek for 5 days and 4 nights. It was an amazing stay. The area is very walkable and easily accessible by the bus terminal. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and will definitely be returning, and staying here again.

The guest check in agents were great: Daniel, Louis and Hendrick plus I think Annette. They were very helpful, thoughtful(my visit included my birthday~yay!) and a thoughtful bottle of red wine was gifted-classey. Our room was lovely, clean and housekeeping did a great job too. Thank you for a lovely stay; I am definitely recommending your hotels especially The Apotek to friends who are coming to Iceland.

Room was slightly on the small side but was clean and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was updated and really nice, but the setup and lack of ventilation makes the entire room so damp after a shower. Fan wasn’t working in ours. Location is convenient - close to attractions, shopping, dining, and bus stop for pick-up. Because of proximity to bars, it can get loud even past midnight. Breakfast buffet was so-so. Highly recommend the restaurant outside of the buffet. We tried their platters and sampled some tasty icelandic cuisine.

Wonderful property and staff. It was close to everything so you’re able to walk and get to all attractions, bars, tours etc. parking is the only issue, no on sight parking so you have to find a garage or street parking, pay and then walk. If you find parking jnP2 it’s like $20 a day
