Great hotel in the center of Reykjavik! It was right on one of the main entertainment strips, but sat back in so it was nice and quiet. We were steps away from restaurants and dining and just a few doors down from our favorite night time entertainment at the Bookstore Bar!

Fabulous staff and location on the walking street! Great breakfast and lamb soup dinner in its restaurant. Yummy ice cream across the road. Only improvement comment is to have a non slip bathmat for use outside the step down shower since I nearly crashed into a corner glass when slipping as I stepped out !

The smell from the water was unbearable. We suggest to keep the bathroom door closed. If you have a candle or incense, try that. There were stains on the couch, along with a burn mark. The water pressure was the worst that we have ever seen. Strange, because the water pressure in the kitchen seemed fine, but the shower was just a trickle!!!

The hotel itself was fine, but was not too happy after incorrect information given by a hotel staff member resulted in a $400 morning trying to get back to the airport. When I arrived, they were out if guest parking (fine), I then asked the reception attendant where i could park overnight and he gave me the address of a parking ramp nearby. He did not mention that you can’t get the car out until 7am despite having a code with the ramp and I had a flight the next morning at 7:30am. This resulted in a $200 taxi ride to the airport (yes, Iceland is insanely expensive) and another $200 fee for the rental company to go pick up the car. All of this could gave been avoided with some communication as it was not clear that once your car was in the garage you could not access it with your code between certain hours.

Great place to stay in Reykjavik! Super convenient location, close to a parking garage and easy to walk everywhere from here. It’s also near the Lewbowski Bar, our favorite bar in Reykjavik. The room was large and comfortable, and I’d absolutely stay here again.

Great hotel and excellent location. The breakfast is really exceptional with lots of fruit choices, meats, breads, cereal, etc. rooms are on small side, but we had two chairs for sitting. Very professional and helpful front desk. We stayed here twice, two days each time and everything was consistently good.
