We loved the location, comfort, and friendly support from staff. The rooms were clean and cozy. The crib for our 22 month old was setup and nicely arranged before our arrival, along with some basic grocery necessities for our family. It was a bit loud in the mornings around 5am due to trash pickups and then around 7am for the kindergarten right next door. The room was super warm; with the radiators completely off it was still 78°F in the room, while it was only 50°F outside. Therefore, with the noise level from outside, we couldn’t keep our windows open to cool the apt down. We were able to secure street parking everyday despite the hotel staff suggestion to do parking garage arrangements, but we are Manhattan residents.

This hotel was pleasantly quiet and in a sideline in the middle of all the hustle and bustle in the City Center, Reykjavík we loved the way the rooms were set up. It was neat, clean, immaculate, and developed. They also impressed us with a nice touch of leaving a breakfast basket in our room and fresh bread in the morning from a nearby bakery. We enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend the Reykjavík residence hotel to anyone visiting Reykjavík for business or leisure.

Fantastic!!

Amazing! I can’t say anything else. Out room was great, all the appliances we used worked great. The bed was beyond comfortable and everything was so clean! The staff was very friendly and helpful. They even apologized for the road construction on their street (which did not affect us at all with the exception of being able to drive to the entry and drop bags. There is a parking garage less than a 2 minute walk from the main property and we can walk to everywhere else downtown.

The room is great but check in is not ideal.

The hotel and the location are wonderful. However, the check in process is less than ideal. The reception desk simply watched us wait in the lobby after repeatedly checking the availability of the room, and only at the last minute advised us of the readiness of the room. The hotel room is also a walk away from the main lobby, and no help is offered

Great place to stay as it’s very walkable to restaurants and museums. It is a little louder outside but goes with what you would expect in the middle of town. The breakfast was simple but very good. I stayed in the Tannery and loved the whole idea of these “homes”.

Excellent! The location, the apartment, amenities: all excellent. Best of all, if you pay for the breakfast, they’ll leave fresh bread hanging your door handle in the morning. Totally worth it! Plants breakfast was 2 oranges, 2 yogurts, sliced bread, ham, and cheese, jams, butter, and a whole red pepper. Room was huge, clean, and everything was perfect.
