The hotel is convenient because of the pickup drop off for tours location. I loved the view from the Tower. The breakfast had a good variety of food. We were able to find shortcuts to the main road in the city and it was definately walkable.

Staff was good. Location was good, a pleasant walk to the center of town. Also nice to ride e-scooters if you’re able to. Street parking is very convenient if you can find it. All together a nice hotel. Nothing extravagant but will do just fine

Fosshotel Reykjavík was wonderful

Lithos hotel was lovely. We got upgraded to a room with a view which was outstanding. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was wonderful. It had everything you could want. And the staff was incredibly friendly.

This hotel was great. It has great views of the water and mountains from our room. The only con I have is that we had to park our rental car on the street and pay for street parking

The whole team at Fosshotel were honestly a blessing to my trip in Iceland. They were on call to assist with all my requirements months in advance, even until my last checkout at the hotel. The staff members are so lovely and treat you very professionally but also like good friends. I am so grateful to the team for making this trip so so special and really going the extra mile for some of the requirements I had. The facilities are very good, the hotel is in the perfect location and easy to get to. The rooms are well kept, clean and spacious. I have been to some amazing hotels all around the world however nothing can compare to quality service and that is exactly what this hotel delivers. I will forever be grateful and most definitely be returning to Iceland, where I will be staying at this hotel again! Thank you all so much.

This was such a great location, it was a 15 minute walk to “downtown” Reykjavik. There is a good hall nearby and the food from the hotel was decent (but expensive). Enjoyed our stay and would stay again.
