Close to downtown, apartment was spacious and very clean. Great set up for a few days in town and a reasonable price. They had originally told me I couldn't check in early because they were fully booked. However as soon as the apartment was available they emailed me to tell me I could check in early! I really appreciate that extra effort in customer service.

Nice guesthouse apartment near downtown.

My dad and I stayed here for two nights. It was great to have a little kitchen and living room area. Very clean and we had a long delay getting in so checked in very late. We were able to call someone who buzzed us in and our key was waiting. The downtown main area wit lots of restaurants and shops was a 5 minute walk. We ended up storing our bags after checkout at the travel center a couple blocks away for a fee. The only one snag was the shower head wasn't tight enough and kept falling over (I left them a note though so I'm sure it was fixed). I also found that water came under the shower and soaked the bathroom floors a bit. The heated floors in the bathroom were nice. Overall, would definitely stay again. The flybus and excursion vans will also pick you up and drop you off in front of the house.

Very nice apartment, in downtown Reykjavik

Pros: Location, facilities, cleanliness
Location: Downtown Reykjavik - many restaurants, bars, tourist attractions, and a supermarket within walking distance.
This was a nice place to stay during an overnight stopover. Very clean and updated, with a small kitchen, sitting room with TV, and comfortable beds.

The perfect combo of location, value and privacy

Pros: Location and quiet. Everything we needed and nothing we didn't.
Cons: Door to the bathroom didn't close fully. Parking instructions were confusing.
Location: Two blocks from the cute and historic city center. We were five blocks from the waterfront. Next door to the national museum.
Castle House apartments are two blocks from the center of old Rekjkavik, next door to the National Museum, across from a lovely lake, and off the main road for quiet. While I never met our hosts, they took great care of us, providing a key, cleaning the room, and responding to emails quickly. Everything in the city is expensive, so I think that Castle House, while more expensive than I usually book, was a good value.

Very nice apartment

Location: Just 2-3 blocks from the center of Reykjavik, with restaurants and museums easily accessible. Nice neighborhood with several embassies near.
We were able to gain access to the apartment just as expected through a call button. Keys were waiting for us as promised. The apartment was clean and nicely furnished. They made up the beds daily and washed dishes as needed. Also the proprietor was very helpful with travel information by e-mail from the day we first booked.

Beautiful apartment close to central Reykjavik

Pros: Location, cleanliness, decor, amenities, friendly staff
Location: Lake Tjornin, Reykjavik center, plenty of restaurants and shops
Overall, this was the best place to stay for a trip centered around being in Reykjavik- it was a very short walk to the center and had a beautiful view of Lake Tjornin. All the buses for airport pickup/dropoff and tours go here, which is very convenient. They also have a personal driver who can pick you up from the airport (for a fee) but included is the ability to hold luggage until check in, which is invaluable for the early-arriver. I loved being here. Very clean and nicely decorated room.

Absolutely Amazing !!

Pros: Everything
Cons: It was perfect
Location: Wonderful.... near most things
This place far exceeded my expectations, and is superior to any other place I have stayed in Europe. Welcoming, clean, warm, comfortable... and the location to town is very good. Just a quick walk to a bakery... 5 minutes to a great restaurant... 10 minute walk to the main shopping street. I hesitated to post this review because I plan to stay again this year, and don't want it TOO full. Lol
