Hotels in Reykjavik

personally i love this apartment style instead of hotel. more private n self served. the view is stunning. location is convenient. staff is helpful. to me I love it.

This is not your traditional hotel as it sits on the 9th floor (top) of an office building. To check-in, you receive emailed instructions and once on the top floor, you're met by hotel staff. It's hard to pay attention to what they're saying because the views are spectacular. I had room #6-corner suite and it did not disappoint, with breathtaking floor to ceiling views on 2 walls. Suite is huge and...

Wonderful place to stay! We were able to check in earlier which was great since our flight landed very early in the morning. The views were spectacular and the room was very clean and quiet space. We enjoyed our breakfast in bed too it was delicious pastries and Skyr! Highly recommend and will definitely be staying here again during our next Iceland trip!

We stayed at Tower Suites Reykjavik for five nights and had a wonderful experience. We were on the 20th floor and the view over the city was absolutely stunning. The room was very spacious, with a walk-in closet and a large bathroom including a bathtub. One of the highlights was being able to enjoy the city lights — and even the Northern Lights — while taking a bath. The location is very convenient...

I think you should make it clear that it’s not a hotel but more like rooms on a top floor of an office building just to set expectations up front

Beautiful corner suite with unrivaled views of Reykjavik! Perfect location and friendly, attentive staff, especially Kelly who anticipated our every need.

Beautiful venue, would highly recommend. Had been doing the ring road in a van that would last couple of days was so wonderful to come into such a cleanup, aesthetic, and calm environment to spend the night again. The breakfast was a big highlight, it’s not very often a hotel breakfast tastes like a home cooked meal!

Originally we did not receive the code for the floor door, but the help we received was good. The room itself was very neat and tidy, and had all the equipments we need to make our stay comfortable. There is a bonus 5 mins walk away if you need anything and the location of the hotel is ideal.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding stay – highly recommended in Iceland! Our stay at Blue Mountain Apartments by Heimaleiga was truly exceptional. From the very first contact until departure, everything was perfectly organized. The team is incredibly flexible, caring and responsive. They reply very quickly to questions and requests and genuinely go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible. This...

It was very neat, tidy!! Loved that it had a cooking station! Did coffee and tea every day!! Staff was not to friendly, but i found alot of Icelanders were not on the very friendly side unfortunately!

The apartment had everything although there is questionable staining above the one window and lots of moisture around the window. Kitchen table has lots of scuff/tear marks in it which does not give the impression of care for furniture. Coffee provided are open and not individually packaged or sealed. The spare duvet for the pullout couch was also stained :( Water is hot and great pressure. Safe...

We booked 3 units for 2 days and everybody is happy for this clean and spacious properties, highly recommended

Very cosy place, a bit small, so I would only recommend it if you're planning to only sleep there. Got a nice gift when I entered my room. The location is a bit hidden in between buildings, but you will get a mail with good directions before you are able to check in. Very friendly owner, and she will contact you if needed. Basically wouldn't expect more for this generous price

The hotel had poor soundproofing and no front desk, so those who don't speak English well should probably think twice before choosing it. The owner was very nice and let me check in early. It's very close to the church. After taking the airport bus to the last stop, it's about a kilometer away. I took a taxi, which cost 90 RMB.

Our room was 102. King bed. Very clean. Shared bathroom, but not a problem.

The location is the big plus for this property, however, if you want quiet between 8pm - 11pm, this is not ideal without ear plugs due to live music at the local bars. The property details do not specifically say it's a shared bathroom/shower so that was a surprise. The property also provided the door code to the wrong door so I was glad I had a working phone and they answered promptly to provide...

Very cute and cozy house in the city centre of Reykjavik. The kitchen is very basic but it had all we needed. Room was spacious and clean. The house is very quiet but you can hear noise from the other rooms on the same floor. There is only one toilet though, so it’s easy to find it occupied in the morning. Very kind host, quick to reply.

Good location, very clean and convenient check-in. The room is small, and since it's an attic, the roof is slanted, so it's easy to hit your head if you're not careful. There is a small open space outside the window with a nice view.

This is not a 5 star accommodation as in luxury etc. But it by no means deserved a 4 star review , so I had to give it 5. Lovely and cosy and clean. Very very helpful and friendly staff. We also had the breakfast basket added and it was fantastic, such a lovely treat every day. Would highly recommended both for couples and especially for families.

We absolutely loved our apartment which had a separate double bedroom and twin beds in the living area. Having a sofa, kitchen and dining table was lovely - it felt like being at home. the breakfast baskets delivered to our door were very generous and good quality. The kids loved having a PlayStation! Good location close to the main shopping street and places to eat. Highly recommended.

Superb! Comfortable and well equipped. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Hugely good value and right in the centre of the city. Would absolutely recommend and will only stay here when we come back! Absolutely lovely!

Great apartments, spacious and luxurious with lots of complimentary food and drinks. The apartments are in a great location, less than 5 minutes walk from the city center and the main shopping street.

Really a great hotel in the suite type style. Clean, immaculate, and a great central location in Reykjavik. Staff is very helpful. One staff member called back a tour bus after we had accidently missed the departure time. Definitely, worth the price!

Lovely place; the Christian X Suite is great

It was a good experience in Iceland however there’s very less amenities which is only beds toilet in the room and even there’s no microwave in the hotel.

The bed in the room was too soft, and I woke up with a backache. Also, the customer service was too slow to respond, and the room was completely empty.

It’s a very good location with decent price. The postcards are the cheapest I can find in the city. You’ll have access to nice food place from there.

Very convenient location just opposite bus stop no.9.

Jack at the front is very nice. The room is simple, but very nice people and yes, it was clean. Great price,Great location, and we will share to come back. Mr. Canada 🇨🇦

As location is in City, parking is an issue and extra cost. Shared showers were a mixture of standards. Kitchen was not regularly cleaned.

We had an amazing stay here. The hosts were very kind. The rooms were nice, clean, quaint and cosy. The breakfast was homemade and tasted amazing. Overal a great experience, would recommend this to anyone visiting Reykjavik

We had the most wonderful stay at this charming bed and breakfast right in the heart of Reykjavik! The owner´s warmth and hospitality made us feel truly at home. Breakfast was delicious and carefully prepared, so thoughtful! We stayed in the upper floor, absolutely loved it!

What a perfect stay and a perfect host. Arrived having received clear instructions for parking ( paid garage across the road ) and check in . We had the side annex , with its own door entrance. Very well equipped with kettle , microwave , fridge , Tv ( didn't use ) and WiFi. Large comfortable double bed , single duvets which seen common in Europe ( not so in the UK ). Spacious bathroom with washing...

Staff was good, room was too bright the door needs some type of curtain

This place really is a treasure. Perfect location in the center of Reykjavík. Beautiful historic architecture and extremely clean. Breakfast in the morning was great… with lots of local treats. We enjoyed talking with our host and meeting some of the other guests around the table. We would highly recommend this quaint and charming guest house!

Very sweet and perfectly located. The host is very charming , the community breakfast table was a fun way to meet other travelers. Our bedroom was rather small which made it a little uncomfortable but it was cozy.

Close to the BSI main bus station (airport bus drop off) about 10-15min walk. Self check-in is possible if you arrive late in the evening. You will be given the passcodes for entrance to the building and also to the rooms. You just have to contact them. As for my room, I stayed in a single bed. It is small but all good. It has its own sink which is pretty useful for doing skin care. It also has cabinet...

Excellent location. Very near the BSI bus terminal. Getting around the city is easy on foot or by bus.

I think it's great for groups of friends traveling together. For couples, the room might be a bit basic, but the kitchen and laundry facilities are really convenient, making it perfect for a more budget-friendly trip.

1st night in Reykjavík, our room located at after entrance need to go down one floor with twist type staircase which is so torturing for us, due to 3 of us with three 28cm suitcase and also our hand carry bag. Kitchen and dining area was good and all kitchen utilities is fully equipped, we expected oil is provided but is not One small problem is the water shower is very slow and the shower curtain...

This hotel offers decent value for money in Iceland. The elderly gentleman at the reception provided excellent service. Although the bathrooms are shared, they were very clean. They also offer a €5 breakfast. The location is superb, within walking distance to both the bus station and city attractions. The only minor drawback is the soundproofing; you can hear footsteps in the hallway. Everything else...

The curtains in the room were broken, so we couldn't close it fully. The fridge was little smelly too. The water had a strong sulphur smell. The location was okay.

The Castle House Luxury Apartments are I such a great location. Everything is within walking distance with the bus stops to most of the tours within 5 minutes walk. The apartments themselves are very clean, well equipped and warm! There is underfloor heating in the bathroom and being Iceland, instant hot water!! The beds are very comfortable, with lovely warm quilts and pillows. Check in is easy...

The apartment is well situated, with a nice view of the Pond. It has lots of litght, the kitchen is well equipped, the shower is good and the bed comfortable. The ability to leave luggage on-site prior to arrival or at departure was quite appreciated. The reason for our 4 of 5 is the electronic key entry system that constantly troubled us, and no one on site to help us. We did not have SIM cards on...

Wish they had some signage so we would have known we were standing across the street when we asked a stranger if they knew where the place was. The shower was tiny and water flooded the floor no matter what we did to keep it from happening. Great location.

Wonderful location just off the center of the city. Comfortable and clean apartment. Felt very safe for a solo traveler. It was nice to have a fridge and microwave. I didn’t use the other appliances. Bed was comfy and shower was fantastic. Host communication was excellent. Convenient luggage storage if you get in early, or if you are leaving the city well after check out.

It offers great value for money, is located in the city center, and is very close to other places; the cathedral is just up a hill away.

Spend a weekend in Reykjavik! A weekend was the perfect amount of time to explore the city of Reykjavik. We found a great tour about the local lore and a couple of museums about Icelandic history.

Aside for a bit of problems with the door code, handle and the battery that left me waiting outside for a bit I can not fault anyone. The staff via WhatsApp , phone and the guy that repaired my door were kind and polite. The room was not spotless but nothing to complain about. The room, the area, the view was great! Just a suggestion...if you leave some cleaning products and accessories ( broom, mop...

What a wonderfully cozy place! I stayed for 3 nights, and the check-in and check-out process was super smooth, with codes sent via email the day before arrival. It was clean and fresh, and the bed was really comfortable. The location is great, close to both the airport bus and the city center. Honestly, there's nothing to complain about. I'd definitely consider staying here again on my next trip back...

This is a great option in Reykjavik--the location is wonderful and the price is quite reasonable, especially since you get a lot more space than in a normal hotel room. Our top-floor unit (reachable by elevator!) had a small balcony and a big bathroom with a good shower. In July it was light all night, of course, but there were good blinds on the windows for sleeping. We didn't use the kitchen for...

New years in Reykjavik We spent 2 nights here over new years. The check in was easy and location is very convenient for walking around the city. No issues getting parking. The apartment is quite cozy. The only complaint we had was the pull out sofa. If as very uncomfortable and hard for my children to sleep on. Maybe would be ok for a smaller child but that would be it. Other than that we...

though we choose queen bed, we were give two single beds

Great stay. Very convenient and close to all activities. Parking can be a hassle as there is no dedicated spot - people living around the building seem a bit testy about renters. Our entry code was sent to us ahead of time but was not ‘initiated’ so did not work - had to call and get a new one impromptu. A bit unexpected.

We were moved because our original booking cancelled. I didn't receive the PIN details to check in until I phones when we were here.

Convenient with nice amenities The room (family triple with private bathroom) was on the lower level and was easily accessible managing some stairs. It was large and welcoming for the two of us with outlets readily available by the bedsides for charging. The private shower fluctuated a bit on temp but nothing unreasonable. The main bed was very hard and not forgiving if you a side-sleeper. We found...

More like a backpackers hostel than a guest house. Clean but very basic - especially considering the price. Tiny bathroom (no problem for us - but a larger person would not squeeze through the shower door). There is a shared kitchen with a coffee machine which is a plus. Kind customer service on the phone - but no one on site. No place to store luggage after 11am check out time.

We really liked the room size and the private bathroom. Bed was comfortable. We were unable to open the front door using the access code provided to us via email, but it worked for the back door. The drapes in the room should extend over the entire window, but they do not. Overall a very good stay despite some minor issues.

1. The location is convenient, within a 10-minute walk of Reykjavik's popular attractions, including the cathedral and the main street. 2. Free parking is available right outside the hotel, perfect for those driving. 3. The hotel has a spacious kitchen and dining room, fully stocked with bowls, pots, and other utensils, perfect for families who want to cook. (We brought a small multicooker and bought...

Very nice and calm place to relax after Iceland trip. Clean and comfortable.

Fantastic location, spacious and has everything you need for your trip.

Comfortable with lots of space - location is ideal for tourists

Room was very clean - information provided for check in and out was clear and helpful - location is great location - right in the city centre

Excellent location with the rainbow road right outside,lots of bars and resturants on your door step excellent communication from vladimir when i had to ask questions regarding propery and parking. The apartment was just the right size for 3 of us beds were very comfortable and rooms were lovely and warm we had a great stay

The location of this accommodation was fantastic - so central and close to everywhere, right at the heart of Reykjavík, close to the old harbour and many shops including supermarkets close by. Getting in to the apartment was a little unclear. We were sent the codes in advance but the code for the key box was very small and instead the code for the front door was the one we were trying - the code for...

We were nine women traveling together, and the apartment was spacious with four bedrooms and two bathrooms. There was plenty of space and all necessary kitchen equipment was available. It’s located right in the city center, within walking distance to most places. Unfortunately, there was some dampness in the rooms. The staircase up to the apartment had a strong, unpleasant smell, so we had to hurry...

Perfect place to spend a night or two as good location and comes with kitchen and laundry facilities. However check in can be a nightmare if your booking platform does not update you with check in instructions

The location was fantastic. Check in was easy. Staff seemed to come in regularly and take out the trash and tiddy up the bathrooms. The couch for the third person to sleep on was awful. There was a lot of mold in the shower and the drain didn’t work well. You had to continually shut the water off during your shower so it didn’t flood the bathroom. Staff was notified and they were able to have maintenance...

The room trash was not emptied and there was no indication where you could take it yourself. The humidity was quite high. The traffic noise was reasonably loud.

Great central location and value. You will share a bathroom so make sure you are ok with that. Having a kitchen available was great. Staff was helpful when I needed to speak to them.

Bathroom/Toilet is not as clean as expected

The rooms are clean for a budget hotel but the walls are paper thin. I can hear everytime someone takes a poop and when he goes to the shower or uses the tap. There is only 1 bathroom at every floor with the sink, toilet and shower in the same room so it cannot be used concurrently. This means we have to wait >30mins for each person to poop, then shower etc. You can only imagine what it is like on...

They’re charging an additional 3,000 kroner in tax? The experience doesn’t justify the price.

They’re charging an additional 3,000 kroner in tax? The experience doesn’t justify the price.

Free parking, large room, and large supermarkets around

An additional kr3,000 for bedding and kr4,000 to park for just a few hours doubled the cost of the stay.

I can't tell you how grateful I am that I went here. Max is the best! I came to Iceland with absolutely no plan, just to see a friend. She spent over an hour writing down a 4 day itinerary for me by hand! My debit card was having problems, so she accepted my American cash and booked everything for me on her own card! She then loaded up a bag full of groceries and sent me on the road. Really, she's...

The lady taking care of the hostel is smart, well spoken and extremely helpful! I came kinda unprepared to Iceland and she took ~3 hours to plan my trip, look for the cheapest rooms and even refunded a unnecessary ticket i bought so i could use it for my trip back to the airport. The place is cool too, close to the city center and has comfortable rooms with a reasonable amount of beds per room. Highly...

Was booked last minute due to original accommodation cancellation the day before arrival. Nice place, great location but very poor nights sleep due to poor sound proofing both inside and out. Ear plugs were provided but even with these sleep was broken from late night check ins and late night conversations from people walking by. I suspect the upper floor rooms would be better. Has a usable kitchen...

Not as long as I thought it would be, beautiful and bright, shops on either side, lovely little gift shops, places to eat and get a coffee,very pretty and unique, keep walking past the colours and it leads you right to the hallgrimsta

Is tidy and clean... kitchen is full of kitchenware which provide for us to cook ourself. Nice loc, close with Laugavegur, also able to walk to Harpa concert hall. Near with Bonus supermarket also. Just don’t have free carpark.

We had a great experience staying at Rainbow Guesthouse. The house is very clean and orderly. The location is absolutely perfect! It is in the heart of the city and only minutes walk from many of the fun things to do. I would highly recommend it and will definitely be staying here again when we return!

Beautiful place, very local and easy to get to places within walking distance. Enjoyed my stay

Our room was cute and cozy with a little balcony outside. The kitchen is fully-equipped. It's a very nice place to stay!

Excellent location, a couple of minutes walk from town. The rooms are clean and have everything that we needed. There's tea, coffee and a little carton of milk. It's warm and cosy, the bathrooms are clean, with underfloor heating. Kitchen is very well equipped. We are having a very enjoyable trip, thank you. Highly recommend 👌

Very cosy and comfy place in Reykjavik. We stayed here for 2 nights. Self check-in was very easy. The kitchen is well equipped and rooms is very comfy. The location is close to the city Center so you can go walking to all the places like the church, rainbow street. The place is very quiet as well.

Decent guesthouse at convenient location (10 mins walk from city center). Overall the whole building is very well maintained and clean. The kitchen is quite small for the amount of people that can stay here, but otherwise very well equipped. There are plenty of showers and toilets, all in great shape! Our room was super small, no place whatsoever to put our bags. Very inconvenient if you stay longer...

Staying at REFURINN Guesthouse was a wonderful experience. Owner Jay was very helpful. Property was very clean. Great locations to shopping and dining.

Great location and great staff

Near city center, has free car park and few minutes walk away provided you can find an available one. Room is clean, 3 toilets with 2 showers, upstairs 1 toilet with shower. Quite a few rooms sharing the amenities. Full kitchen though a bit small.

Even though the room was small, it was cozy and comfortable. The showroom was a bit old, but other than that, a very good value for money and the breakfast was amazing!!  Thank you very much. We’d love to stay again.

Excellent pancakes! Incredibly delicious breakfast.

This place made our trip to Iceland perfect. The host is a gentle and introverted man, but you can feel his passion for hospitality in the way he welcomes you. He truly did his best to make us feel at home. The breakfast was a highlight, particularly the pancakes which were amazing. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

Lovely place full of an old fashioned Icelandic charm. The one thing I have against it is the red ants. They were in the room and breakfast area. They bite too!

Wonderful, helpful, delicious breakfast-comfortable bed- very happy and would stay there again—I lost my key to my suitcase and the host got tools to help me break my lock! Such relief!

Nice place to stay, friendly owners, good breakfast, wel located not too far from the center and close to the BSI bus station.

A quite good guesthouse with kitchen for the price, the guesthouse is literally location is just next to Hallgrimskirkja Church , perfect location for the travellers to explore Reykjavik city , it’s has walkable distance to BIS bus terminal to reach airport. Had kitchen to cook own meals it was great , morning around 6:30 to 8pm u can’t use the kitchen since breakfast will be serving, neat shared ...

Stayed at this guesthouse twice. Saw small stains on the bedding both times, maybe time for them to get some new sheets. The room had a bad smell when entering but was okay after airing out. Bathrooms were okay but they only have one on each floor which definitely isn’t enough at peak times. Luggage storage is not secure (just a room behind the kitchen which anyone can wonder into) poor service when...

The environment is nice, close to the cathedral and the station, and the service is acceptable.

The small room is simple, but has everything you need. I was especially happy about the large desk. The breakfast was surprisingly good, given that food is quite expensive in Island (only the coffee could be better). The location is great and really close to the heart of the city, but still relatively quiet.

A nightmare to arrive at this property, we did not receive an email indicating where to collect the keys and where our room is located, the property is made up of several scattered houses, breakfast is not sufficient

I highly recommend this place. It was a bit hard to find at first. I carried my suitcase and searched for the front desk for a long time. I found it on the side of a small street, and it was half underground. It was too hard to find, but once you checked in, it was very convenient. There was breakfast. Although there was not much to eat, it was very clean. There were few varieties, but it was enough...

Great place to stay, clean and comfy during the storm outside. Would recommend to all:)!

On walking distance of the city, with free parking facilities . Clean, cozy, with a little kitchen

Very clean room with a cute design, small but well equipped kitchen, one shared toilet and shower, hot water all day,easy check in and check out. Was very pleased!

Cute cozy room not so far from the centre of Reykjavík. Very nice breakfast.

Nice quiet place within walking distance to downtown. We were able to easily find parking each time we arrived.

Quiet Guesthouse with cosy room, kitchen and bathroom. Close to City Centre. Owners very nice people.

On the downside, it's all pretty basic and the owners aren't very responsive - I had to email on the day of arrival to beg for the door code that should have been emailed more than 24 hours ago and despite warning them first when I booked and then again when I asked for the code that I'd be arriving around 2am (having previously stayed here and knowing the system), my room card had been removed from...

Entry was a bit rundown and 2 flights of stairs to climb. Facilities clean and quiet. Shared bathroom and kitchen. Check-in instructions clear and easy to follow. Good location for shopping, restaurants and bus pickup.

Sleeping was challenging The guesthouse has no control over the music coming from the street (teenagers playing loud music across the street until very late at night) or the bar downstairs, nor can they do anything about the noise of the pipes. Nevertheless, I would not stay in that particular room (#6) again because sleeping was very difficult. My son stayed in a studio at this guesthouse and did...

While a bit cozy and squeaky in places, this was an affordable space for my family in the heart of Reykjavik - close to everything we wanted to see.

The location is okay, there are several good restaurants nearby, but the overall environment is poor, maybe because the building is old. The heating was not very good and the room was very cold. There is no elevator, so you need to carry your suitcase upstairs. All in all I don't think it's worth it compared to the price of ninety pounds a night.

Great spot in downtown Reykjavik. Bus stops just outside to get around the city, to/from the airport. Easy walk to the main city centre, waterfront, and more.

Booked a 3 bedroom apartment for 6 people. 3 bedrooms on 2nd floor and one sofa bed on G/F. Narrow stairs and only 1 toilet on G/F. Weak water pressure in bathroom. ✅washing machine ❎turbo dry BEWARE! No parking at the entrance. I got a fine while parking my car over there.

Such a cozy spot! Very clean, comfy beds. Host was very quick to respond to email. Loved the shared living space, fast wifi. Kitchen had everything we needed and more! A short walk down town, would definitely recommend.

Very cosy place. They have warm rooms all the time. Big comfort kitchen and a lobby with a lovely cat. The location is perfect for short walks to the center. They have always warm coffee for the guests. The rooms are clean and the shared bathroom is clean with warm water all the time. I would definitely recommend it and i will come back to this next time.

Located just a short walk from the Cathedral, the Baldursbra guesthouse is ideal for the budget traveller, the rooms a quite big, and the room we had a small sink and mirror for brushing you teeth before bed or doing makeup. The staff were really friendly, the rooms were spotless, I couldn't have asked for more.

Guesthouse with self-service check-in and out. Small room (for one person; for more I think they are cool). Strange but exciting experience. Shared bathroom. I will repeat for sure next time, has an extraordinary charm...

Good: Location is close to where Airport bus 55 stops, about 250m away. Rooms are large, warm and has one fridge and kettle. Common kitchen is clean, has pots, cutlery, bowls, plates, cups. Check in is self serve (find your name and room number on the white board) but staff respond quickly if you message them. Bad: Room door is very very hard to open. Not soundproof, can hear people downstairs even...
