The hotel was nice enough a bit of an old school vibe - and a bit expensive for what you get. But then it’s quite close to the main attractions - good breakfast - clean room

Good experience overall, decent location, larger clean rooms and bathrooms, good breakfast, very busy hotel. Only negative is the lack of on-site parking requiring paid street parking. Walkable access to Reykjavik shops and restaurants. I would stay there again and would recommend as a newer hotel.

It’s a beautiful hotel. The art around the walls is great and there is a wonderful downstairs library area with comfy sofas. But the breakfast is the real standout. The best breakfast from our trip to Iceland! Delicious salmon and eggs amongst many other things. Note - we arrived on a Sunday and the bar and restaurant were closed and we weren’t aware of that in advance.

Centrally located, clean and overall maintained, plus friendly staff. Nice breakfast. The lift is a bit dated and temperamental. Mattress a bit on the soft side but ok. Blackout curtains could have been a bit wider. All in all highly recommended.

This is a gem of a hotel, which had been recommended by an Iceland native now living in the US. We loved the quiet neighborhood location just a few blocks from everything. It really is just chock full of fabulous art. The bar was cozy and beautiful and had live jazz the evening we were there. Delicious breakfast and super nice front desk staff. We had a junior suite and it was spacious and great. Would definitely recommend.
