Perfect location. There are many restaurants, bakeries, and shops very close. There is a nice area to gather in the reception area. We booked a room with a view of the church and it was an amazing view.

So wonderful to stay across from the beautiful Hallgrimskirkja church and near all the shops and restaurants. Nearby parking is abundant, provided by public lots or street and only costs $2 an hour during the day and free at night. The lobby is open 24hrs and had an awesome superautomatic coffee machine so it's a nice place to retreat if you are up early due to jet lag. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Our room was nice and surprisingly quiet. We were on the top floor.

This is my fourth times staying at this hotel. The staffs are very friendly and helpful. It's also closer to the bus stop 8 for any bus trip that I may have. I would be most likely to return to this hotel in my future plan.

Had twin beds. Makes room a little smaller. If you have the beds together then it’s fine. Staff were wonderful. Bathroom shower is a little small but. The restaurant was nice to hang out in with the free hot chocolate or coffee.

Great location for everything and if you are taking Get Your Guide tours the pick up is just across the street. The bed was super comfortable after a long day touring. I would stay there again!
