Staff was friendly.
i paid for the breakfast - got a bag of food including a drink, a bread, an apple, a small box of granola and jam, and a yogurt and a free access to coffee machine - nothing fancy but good enough to feel full and energised.
i was pleased to be able to choose the room type (upper beds or lower beds).
i particularly enjoyed using the kitchen and the common area as the design was so nice and well-equipped. i was able to make my own meal there.
Highly recommended!

Staff were friendly and location is just right in the middle of the city centre. However, there is only one microwave, one kettle and one fridge shared among all people so there might be some waiting time when making food. There is also no stove for cooking, so you can only microwave stuff to eat.

Great value for money! The room has a nice ambiance with adjustable lighting, and the bathroom is spacious enough. Plus, the front desk is open 24/7, and the location is super convenient.

The location of the hotel is very good, and there are hot springs. The public area is clean and cosy.

View just right above our hostel !!!!
Staying at this hostel in Iceland was honestly unforgettable. The location alone makes it special — but what truly made it magical was seeing the aurora dancing right above the hostel rooftop. Stepping outside at night and watching the Northern Lights shimmer across the sky without even leaving the property felt surreal.

The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and it had that perfect mix of comfort and adventure. After a long day exploring Iceland’s dramatic landscapes, it was amazing to come back somewhere warm and relaxed — and then be rewarded with a sky full of green lights.

If you’re coming to Iceland hoping to see the Northern Lights, this place gives you front-row seats. I would absolutely stay here again. 🌌✨

It's very annoying that orders can't be cancelled. Are you that short of money? Besides, there's no hair dryer in the bathroom on the third floor. Please tell me how to dry my hair after washing it.

Facilities: Accommodation in Iceland is generally expensive, and this hostel is truly value for money. Despite being a hostel, its environment and facilities are on par with a high-end hotel, even providing Rituals toiletries.
Environment: The location is excellent. You can park on the roadside, and if you've booked a tour, drivers can pick you up directly from the hotel entrance, which is much more convenient than going to a bus stop. Of course, Bus Stop 6 is also very close, just a 2-3 minute walk away.
Service: The hotel lobby offers self-service with complimentary tea bags and coffee. You can store your own groceries in the shared fridge and heat them up, which is very convenient. You can also cook your own meals and even use a hot spring.

Cityhub was a fantastic stay, especially recommended for solo travelers. It's quite affordable for Reykjavik. For my last three nights, I chose a lower bunk, and I felt there was enough space; it was also more convenient for packing and unpacking. The ability to choose between upper and lower bunks is a really nice option. The only minor drawback is that the door is quite heavy and closes very quickly, so you have to be careful not to catch your hand.
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.

A serious pizza to be fair. Great job. I'll be back again soon.
31.12.2017 Venkatesh
Try the ravioli. Very good. Order a pizza to go. The quantity is so less you would feel hungry soon.
27.12.2017 Magnus
F**ing disgusting. We were sitting next to the pizza maker. The heaters where behind us. The waiter then dropped our childrens pizza right in front of us, told us that they would make another one. The waiter put the pizza RIGHT ON THE HEATER BEHIND US. Then a few moments later he brought it back to us. Claiming it was a new one.

This was a nice experience - first dinner in the restaurant, then cocktails in the bar below. The restaurant is rather loud and often crowded, it seems, which is warranted by the food. Both the salted cod and the catch of the day were delicious. The bartenders know how to make cocktails, so you can safely order cocktails that are common but not on their menu. The bar below is rather small, but we were lucky enough to get a table in the corner with the couches. Reservations are highly recommended!

Amazingly delicious. Get the catch of the day. Classy yet mellow atmosphere. Swanky yet relaxing. Loved it.
24.11.2017 Philipp
Great place. Fun and lively atmosphere and well prepared food. The caramalized potatoes were amazing. We ordered the christmas menu but hope to return to try the duck leg as well. Service was great.
17.11.2017 K
I was pretty disappointed with the food in Reykjavik until I came to Snaps. My mom and I came for dinner on a Thursday night but there was a 40 minute wait at 6:30pm... plenty of tables open but reserved. We didn't want to wait so we left, but came back on a Monday for lunch. There were barely any people there at noon. The catch of the day and the mussel appetizer were delicious!
23.09.2017 Jonas
This may be Reykjavik's best dinner spot. The selection of local dishes and seafood options were impressive. The staff was very attentive and bar staff was were very knowledgeable. I had a small selection of oysters and the mussels with frites. Don't miss this spot!

When the food is ready, the chef yells at you like your parents would, if you had done something that was definitly not right! ? But the food is delicious, best noodles i've had in a long time. Everything is fresh and made from scratch!
28.07.2017 Katie
Super delicious noodle house with noodle soups with different bases. Very easy to get vegetarian options of all their dishes and they have a good range of spiciness to choose from. Went back twice, it was so good! Prices are decent for Reykjavik and the quantity was very generous.
