10/10 Exceptional

Great location and nice staff

We stayed 1 night both before and after our hike. They kindly stored our luggage between our nights. The reception staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming and we really enjoyed the breakfast as well! The location is great and the room was affordable, will definitely visit again!

Nice but noisy

Large and pleasant corner room with a comfortable bed. Location on a pedestrian street was charming on one hand but too noisy at night for us.
Kathleen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We appreciated the hotel's central location. There was a live music venue across the street, and we were able to open the windows and enjoy the music. The room was clean and comfortable and we really liked the included breakfast.

10/10 Exceptional

A Center Hotel in the center of it all.

Older hotel on a pedestrian street, one business away from the corner where a taxi can drop you off. There are a few steps to navigate with your luggage to get to the elevator. Reception was very hospitable and allowed us to get into our room around 10AM, 6 hours early because it was ready and available (our flight arrived at 6:30AM). The room was very adequate and clean; beds were comfortable and the breakfast included was great. The location ofthe hotel was right in the middle of Reykjavik and lots of restaurants, bars and attractions were within walking distance as well as many bus stops which were easy pick up points for tours.

Location was perfect
DORA, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel was well located and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms are very small with a full size bed (slightly larger than a twin). There are stairs at the entrance which made for difficulties accesing the building with luggage.

Liked the hotel, staff and location. But the loud bar across the street was disturbing at bedtime… good thing I was so tired each night.

The room was clean; however, they did not come in the second day and make the bed or check the bathroom for needed towels and amenities that needed checking.

Great city centre hotel

Lovely wee hotel that was slap bang in the middle of Reykjavik city centre. It was very quiet, clean and friendly. Breakfast was included, which is a bonus in Iceland
Kris, 2-night trip

Central and simple

Simple standard, simple breakfast, but clean and very central in the middle of the tourist area.
Cato, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location but not for light sleepers

Hotel is located directly at main walking street. Normally this would be a great location. But the street was busy with lots of people were up and about all night and early morning. The noise gets into the room. Not for light sleepers.
