The bed was comfortable. It was difficult getting bags up the few steps to the elevator and the door was very heavy to hold open ourselves.Staff did not offer assistance. We got a room with a tub that was too.high to step in. ourselvescwith luggage.

Staff very helpful. Since I have issues with mobility and the shower in our original room, in a deep tub, would be difficult for me to access the management transferred us to a room with a walk in shower.

Excellent service and rooms

We had a wonderful stay in the heart of Reykjavik. The hotel provided excellent service and comfortably appointed rooms. We would especially like to extend our sincere thanks to Kamil at the front desk for his warm hospitality and outstanding assistance throughout our stay.

This is a nice hotel in a quiet location. The closest bus stop (which tours and airport shuttles use for pick up and drop off) is about 4 blocks away. It seems to be used for a lot of tour groups who ascend on the breakfast buffet like a bunch of vultures. If you are unfortunate enough to arrive after them, there is little left for you.

The hotel room was very clean, spacious and the bed very comfortable. Staff was welcoming and courteous. We are active seniors in our late 70s-80 and thought the bath was dangerous. The side of the tub is very high, the bottom very slippery and the shower sprays enough to make the floor wet. There is one safety handle near the faucet but none to aid you as you enter or exit the tub. Other than the safety of the bath we were pleased with everything else.

Great stay pre-cruise. Excellent property, beautifully appointed. Was just a short walk to our cruise port and to the Harpa concert hall. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Lots of dining and drinking options within a short walk and an excellent restaurant in-house
