I had occasion to communicate with this hotel several times before traveling. They were extraordinarily helpful and so personable. Sarah, Van Hai, Benedikt were always quick to answer and make arrangements for transportation from the airport. They were really wonderful

This was a great location, tons of street parking around the hotel. If you want to use their parking you must reserve ahead . There was a restaurant there and the bakery was amazing for breakfast ! The room was spotless and shower was great after a long day of traveling ! Will be staying there again !

The hotel was nice and clean and the location was great. Perfect location if you have whale watching tour booked. Nice restaurants located closed by. The bagels in the restaurant on the bottom floor was great! My only complaint is the loud noise from the room doors closing, that woke me up several times unfortunately.

2/10 Poor

The hotel was very central to downtown and an easy walk to the Old Harbor. The staff was fantastic and very helpful. We also enjoyed the included breakfast each day.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Our room was clean and staff were professional and polite. The hotel was conveniently located for touring Reykjavík and taking side trips. The only issue we had was getting stuck in the elevator, which is not a pleasant experience if you are claustrophobic. Other than the one mishap I highly recommend the hotel if visiting Reykjavík.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic location, just a short walk to the centre of Reykjavik. Also very close to bus stop #4, which is a pick-up/drop-off point for the Flybus and most of the local tours. Our room had a pleasant view over the harbour. It was also clean, had a nice bathroom, good bed, free safe, and everything else you'd expect in this price range. No noise issues. We didn't buy the hotel breakfast. It was nice having a popular bakery and restaurant/bar (who will deliver online orders to your room) on the ground floor. Recommended.

Room was pretty small for the price. Only a small area to hang clothes . Had to put suitcases in the alcove. Was pretty hot because of outside temp which can’t be changed obviously but would have been nice to be able to open window for air movement. Good breakfast and access to Jazz night. Good location to downtown

Great location inside Reykjavík with a short walk to the city centre.. industrial style hotel rooms. Sauna was a huge plus. Gym was a little bare and I didn’t care for the fact it was down in the basement so didn’t use it. No parking at the hotel but street parking was available. I would stay here again.
