Rooms are specious and clean . Good location near from restaurants , bars and to visit the city by walk .
10.10.2025 William
We had only a 1 day stay as we were getting on a cruise ship. This hotel was very close to the cruise port and the staff their directed us to a walkable distance to a free shuttle bus to the cruise port, We explored the area , which was downtown, on foot and enjoyed it very much..
03.10.2025 Dheeraj
Overpriced for the quality of the room
Good location but room with slanted ceiling and only skylights without windows. Felt like we were in an attic. Not happy with the room for the price we paid.
03.10.2025 Simon
The room was clean however the bathroom really smelt badly of “drain”.
The bed was comfortable and the area was generally quiet.
The breakfast was very crowded with little room to manoeuvre. The hot food was lukewarm at best with the bacon being totally undercooked on the first morning and overcooked on the second morning.
The bread I felt like eating on the second morning of my stay was still frozen on the inside, so I gave that a miss.
04.06.2025 Neil
Great stay pre-cruise. Excellent property, beautifully appointed. Was just a short walk to our cruise port and to the Harpa concert hall. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Lots of dining and drinking options within a short walk and an excellent restaurant in-house

There are many options in Reykjavik and this is a definite pass. It is noisiest hotel I have stayed in. When I mentioned something to the desk, their response was. “It is in the city.” I have stayed hotels in NYC, London, Paris, etc that were in the middle of the city and they were quiet compared to this place. Never again!!
07.04.2025 Milene
Strategic location. Many restaurants nearby..
03.03.2025 ConnyTan
It is a good location, which is convenient to eat , travel to elsewhere and near the rainbow and food street. Next to the hotel got a very nice pizza restaurant.
24.07.2024 Guest
The order cannot be cancelled and the experience is not that good anyway.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't. What would you advise to other guests and to the hotel owner. The more fully you tell about the hotel, the easier it will be for other people to make a choice and they will be very grateful to you!
