Reviews
The location is absolutely perfect, right in the city center and within walking distance of restaurants, shops, and main attractions. Everything was spotlessly clean, which made us feel very comfortable from the moment we arrived.
The room had a coffee and tea station, which was a lovely touch, especially after a long day exploring the city. The room was also very warm and cozy, perfect for Iceland’s cold weather.
Overall, an excellent hotel with great comfort, cleanliness, and an unbeatable location. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Reykjavik.
Would definitely stay here again.
