This hotel is conveniently located just outside of the tourist shopping and dining district (less than 5 min walk). It is also located right in front of Bus Stop 12. Most tours have an option to pick up and drop off here, as well as Fly bus the airport transfer bus. I arrived and tried to check in around 11:30am. My room was almost ready. I had the hotel hold my bags and went to lunch. When I returned an hour later, my room was ready. 727. Room was clean and large, great view. Room and bathroom were well stocked. I did not need house keeping the 3 nights i stayed. I received a free drink ticket with my expedia booking. I went to the Beer Garden restaurant after a long tour day, and got the fish and chips and some sparkling wine. Definitely recommend the fish and chips. Overall, a great stay.

The hotel is a little bit away from the center but still walkable. Our room faces the ocean and view is beautiful! That adds a bit plus! Great service and the beer garden is really worth to visit. The only complaint is the room needs a face lift. Also the room doesn’t have any USB ports.

Nice hotel with good environment and relaxing beer garden. Helpful staff, location away from downtown but not too far. Was concerned about the parking but it never became an issue. The floor was a bit dusty but that’s not a huge deal. We had a great time!

Property was very nice. Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was comfortable but the beds were a bit firm for our tastes. Location was a short drive from the "hot spot" so not too bad. Overall, I would book here again for sure!

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
