The room was clean, small but comfortable. I have only one complaint about the room, the mirror in the bathroom was hung so high up. I’m quite petite but I never had this problem. I only saw the top of my head in the mirror. The front desk staffs were very nice and helpful. Breakfast was delicious. There was a bar behind the hotel and the noise was so loud all night till 5 in the morning. We had to open the windows since there’s no air conditioning so I didn’t have a good night sleep.

There was a private party hosted near the bar section of the lobby. They were playing extremely loud and inappropriate music. The hotel should have asked them to be courteous of other guests.

FANTASTIC PLACE

We stayed 10 days here. The staff was INCREDIBLE! Friendly...accommodating.. Clean. Macarons in our room at check in.. Such a nice surprise. Breakfast was the same every day..got a bit tired of scrambled eggs..lol. Could use a waffles station. Bar and happy hour offered. Warm soaking pool available.. Message table available for a fee. Taxi services available from the front desk. This hotel is only a 2 minute walk from the #3 bus stop. Very conveniently located. I would definitely stay here again!

Went for Pride week and our 3 year anniversary. Hotel was clean, the staff was so incredibly friendly, loved the free breakfast options and the jr suite. Would highly recommend anyone coming to Reykjavik to stay at this property! It is conveniently located which made walking around the area so easy. The hot tub in the spa was relaxing. Would love to come back again!

Property was right off the main street. Close to most venues, easy walking distance to restaurants and attractions. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Rooms were much bigger than Center Hotel across from Harpa. Breakfest had many options and was very good. No complaints about our stay.

Great place close to restaurants, shops, and attra

Loved the hotel and some of the workers there, especially the two gentlemen at the front desk. There were super attentive and would go out of their way to ensure we had what we needed. We were also booked an amazing taxi back to the airport for 8 people, plus bags and carry on bags for a flat rate. Our stay was for 9 nights!
