Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The location is exceptional . In the middle of everything and walkable to bus stops for the airport and excursions . Couldn’t be easier . I had a single solo room and it was in the main building and quiet as I was toward the back of the building . Bed comfortable , had a refrigerator and a spacious bathroom with spacious shower w/ enclosure . The breakfast buffet was nice with a decent selection of items . Will definately stay here again when in Reykjavík.

This hotel is on a great shopping & dining street, easy to walk to so many great spots in town! Our room/apartment was spacious, clean, and comfortable. You control your heat separately in each room which I loved! The included breakfast was the cleanest, healthiest breakfast I’ve ever been offered in a hotel! If we come back to Reyjkavic in the future I’ll be staying here again!

Loved having the suite so we were all together. Was caught off guard that there was not air conditioning but it wasn’t an issue at all. Able to open the windows and we were very comfortable. The location was very walkable.
