Loved it! Very clean. Excellent location. Nice breakfast. The only issue for me was that the heat was on very high and I had no way to turn it down. It was May and very warm outside, so I roasted in my room.

A Center Hotel in the center of it all.

Older hotel on a pedestrian street, one business away from the corner where a taxi can drop you off. There are a few steps to navigate with your luggage to get to the elevator. Reception was very hospitable and allowed us to get into our room around 10AM, 6 hours early because it was ready and available (our flight arrived at 6:30AM). The room was very adequate and clean; beds were comfortable and the breakfast included was great. The location ofthe hotel was right in the middle of Reykjavik and lots of restaurants, bars and attractions were within walking distance as well as many bus stops which were easy pick up points for tours.

Nice but noisy

Large and pleasant corner room with a comfortable bed. Location on a pedestrian street was charming on one hand but too noisy at night for us.

This is not a good property for people with mobility issues. As you enter the hotel, you must climb up three or four steps and then once inside, you have to climb another four steps to get to the elevator to take you to reception.

I didn't care of having to carry my suitcases up to the reception desk. I do understand that this building is a little old in the sense that the reception desk in on the 2nd level from the street. I do like the morning breakfast. The fruits were sweet, there was quite a selection of various breads, bakery items, sandwiches to customize your own, oatmeal, juices, and of course coffee.

As the hotel is on Laugavegur it is on the main shopping street and cultural area of Reykjavik, and very close to the centre with all the main attractions. Staff on reception very friendly and helpful, as were the staff serving breakfast.Room and en suite was clean, plenty of towels, soaps etc, kettle and tea/coffee in the room, and plenty of plug sockets to charge cameras, phones, tablets etc. Some of the rooms overlook Hús máls og menningar (The Old Bookstore) which every evening has a band playing live between 8pm-11pm (free entry, the band is very good!), so if you want an early night you might be disturbed. Although there is a lift to all the floors, there's a few steps to access the entrance from the street, then a short flight of stairs to the lift.
