Reviews
Location was perfect, 5 min walk from the main bus stops and right on the high street.
Rooms were realy big with a little kitchenette too which we weren't expecting.
One night the bar next door had renovations going on untill gone past midnight which kept us awake as it was against our room wall. Spoke to the receptionist the next morning and they sent and had words with them for us.
My only quelm for the place is the breakfast is all cold food (continental) small selecfions of cold cuts of meat, bread, pastry and cereal which after 2 days gets boring as hell. Ended up going out for breakfast a couple of days just to give us something more.
Not only this but in the elevator there was an advertisement that said you could get fish and chips and lava cake for pudding for 4900 if you are a guest....
Which we told the restaurant and they took off 10% ..... and then added 11% vat.... so it came out the same price anyway so thats a bit of false advertisement. No issue with vat in general but it should be stated on the advert.
Room is clean with all facilities and buffet breakfeast with many choice
The perfect place to enjoy Reykjavik
