Where to stay in Reykjavik

The mattress and the pillow are too soft. The bathroom water went slow. Location is good.

Lovely hotel, modern and clean. Staff welcoming. We ate in the hotel on our last evening and had a lovely meal. Ideal location close to bus stop number 9 were your dropped off from the airport. Turn left and walk up the street for 5 mins and Alda hotel is on your right. There is a tourist information shop a couple of minutes up from the hotel on the same side which was a huge help👍🏻 Also, the number...

Excellent location, in the center! Great staffs service. They allowed us to early check in! It has hot tub and sauna and gym, it is small. We just came just sleep. Parking on street paying in meter. There are lots of restaurants and stores sorrounding! Excellent experience!

Nice clean hotel, staff were very friendly and welcoming. The location is great, minutes from shops, bars and restaurants but still very quiet. Plenty of bus stops close by too. The room was great, deluxe double with balcony. We managed to sit out there every night and see the aurora borealis which was incredible.

Great centre of Reykjavik hotel, breakfast is a wide variety and good quality

Nice location. Expensive for a very small room but perhaps common in Iceland. Toilet smells. Sometimes the toilet paper is not replaced.

Pick it for the location - in downtown Reykjavik (beautifully lit with fairy lights during winter) with lots of traditional houses, close to a main bus stop (for tours) and in walking distance of restaurants and the harbour. This hotel is such a cute place with simple, modern rooms which are quiet at night. To get there from the airport, buy a Flybus ticket (right by the exit in arrivals) and go to...

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Reykjavík Centrum and would definitely give it 5 stars. We stayed in a triple room, which was very comfortable and well organized, offering plenty of space for a great stay. 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...

I loved everything about my stay here. The staff made me feel very welcomed and helped me with any questions I had even before I arrived. The location was perfect to everything I needed to get to. The breakfast in the morning was always very filling and appetizing and perfect way to start each day. I highly recommend adding that to your stay. I would always pick here to stay when traveling to Reykjav...

I strongly recommend that hotel. Yes, it is overpriced but it is the average value in Reykjavik as well. Breakfast is perfect and the staff is kind.

Great hotel, location couldn't be better, spotlessly clean, tasty breakfast and friendly staff. The receptionist (I think she was called Kristýna) was super helpful with ideas on where to visit, she was an absolute super star! Would definitely stay here again.

Amazing hotel. Beds were super comfortable, lovely and warm (and I'm really fussy!) Staff were very friendly and always happy to answer questions. Service of the room is on request which is a brilliant idea no one changes crying every day at home! Breakfast was fresh and ample. We didn't have any issues with noise and we were at the side of the hotel. Stayed for our honeymoon and had a lovely note...

Great location. Walking distance to the Rainbow Road & the church. However, our room had a pretty bad smell from the sink/bathroom. Pretty noisy at night(til 2am) from the restaurant bar across the hotel.

Lovely overall experience. The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. The general hotel design is beautiful and modern and the rooms are cozy and very clean, with comfortable beds and modern showers. My only point here would be that the rooms might need a bit of refreshing (like a new paint for the walls for example). However, wonderful overall stay and delicious breakfast. Would definitely come...

As you enter the hotel you can obviously see that they are seeking for money. No kettle or spresso machine in the room (you have to pay around 20€ daily if you want them) , no water in the fridge at all , a list of the prices of all the products in the room ( such as blankets and condoms and some toothbrushes and etc.) hidden in the cabinet! Each hour of late checkout costs 50€ . The room is nice...

Great location and helpful staff but the rooms have not been slept in by anyone running this hotel - and therefore aren’t well designed. No light switches or sockets by the bed (in fact only one set of sockets under the desk and the window on the floor so you have to properly get down on hands and knees!) other than that the toilet doesn’t have a proper door and the shower is just behind a glass panel...

The room, the staff (especially Abraham) , everything was perfect.

We found our room to be typical of most European hotels. Minimalist, no storage, and no door on the bathroom. That means when you turn on the light to use the restroom in the middle of the night, it lights up the entire room. Tha room was clean and the bed was comfortable.

The hotel is in a convenient location close to the city center. Service is fine and generally meets basic expectations. The room is clean and comfortable. However, the cooking facilities are not very practical, so guests who plan to prepare meals may find it a little inconvenient.

Everything was so good! I love the space , was so clean and the food thank you definitely we coming back we had amazing experience.

The location is amazing in the middle of the shopping, dining, supermarkets, bus stops etc. Room is not large but has everything one needs. Loved the kitchenette, access to coffee, towels, and kitchen needs. Room was clean, modern and includes a small dining table. We enjoyed the bar downstairs when it was open. Hope we can afford this place if we ever to Iceland!

Everything about this place was great! Loved the room, and the location was perfect. Great place to stay.

Everything was fine but no one knew where it’s no sign out side. Even the police car was right out side apartments. But she didn’t not know. .

This was a nice place for a few days stay. The only problem we ran into is that it’s challenging to get in touch with anyone should you need anything. We needed more coffee pods and garbage bags, and neither of which were restocked in the hall cabinet. The best part was the breakfast bag. I was really impressed by the quality of the items included. 2 buns, 2 croissants, cheese, butter, apples and...

Everything was great except the room was a bit small. The location is on a pedestrian street. The bed was very comfortable.

Breakfast was delicious Shower facilities were good It would be better if there was a stand for hanging showers Great location in Laugavegur near bus #14 10 minutes drop The church is 5 minutes away

Great location, friendly staff. Ideal.

Downtown, 150 min walk from the church, turn right and there are several delicious restaurants, Xiaozhu supermarket is nearby. Convenient

Nice hotel good service, got to see aurora in front of the hotel. Very good place around restourant

Highly recommended, great location, great Service. Although the room was a bit small, but given the room Rate was quite affordable in Reykjavik, This hotel is certainly great Value for money.

Amazing staff & hospitality. Can’t say enough how the front desk went above and beyond for my wife and I. 10/10 and would def recommend a stay here.

Great location, near all restaurants and shops The room was superb and clean. Parking wasn’t ideal at all, we had to park 5-10 mins away.

City hotel, street noise, but no restaurant, room service or hotel bar or lounge. Interesting neighborhood and nice room.

Parking was a little confusing but after we figured out where the lobby was and how to get to it we were fine.

Just had a 3-night stay at ION City. Staffs were all friendly and amazing. Location is in the core downtown tourism area of reykjavic so that could be pro or cons depending on what you like. It's a little bit loud outside especially if the room is towards the street, but window is reasonably sound-proof. One issue was that when I first arrived there were a few blood drops in the bath towels, but after...

Very quiet and clean. The sensor lights in the corridor are pretty cool. Good 👍Recommended

The location is good as it is a drop off and pick up point for Fly Bus. The rooms is clean. Self check-in and if any problem have to use the phone at the lobby to call the customer service. The breakfast spread is limited.

Nice hotel. Decent price. Well located. Breakfast available but we didn't.

There was no vegetarian breakfast or warm/hot breakfast available, close to places

I had a really nice stay at this hostel in Iceland. The location was great and it was easy to get around. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and warm, which was perfect after spending the day outside exploring.

Staff helpful but the budget room is small, location is pretty nice. With parking nearby

The room is well-equipped and in a good location, close to the city center. Free parking is available at the door. The overall experience is very good. You can check in by yourself by entering the password obtained by the order at the door. There is a breakfast buffet downstairs.

The rooms are modest, the bathroom is nice and clean and has a modern rainfall shower. The receptionists are really friendly and helpful! We were a bit early for check in but they helped us register and let us park the car in the hotels parking lot.

4* in location because it's easier to drive to downtown than walk, less than 10 minutes.... parking close to the church is cheap enough. Lovely staff, the room is excellent, enough space for three of us. We enjoy the breakfast, good variety but it's the same thing everyday, but that's no problem for us.

Nice clean, modern hotel about 20 minutes walk from the attractions of Reykjavik. There are some nice restaurants close by especially Olifa pizza restaurant, there's a Netto supermarket a couple of minutes walk away. Decent breakfast and nice friendly staff. A special mention to receptionist Elana who went out of her way to help us when we missed our excursion transfer, managing to get us on a later...

Seems like a new hotel. Reception on first floor (one floor up from street entry). 24 hr reception, friendly staff (advise them on check in if you want daily room service. 7 floors of accommodation. Rooms smallish but warm, beds comfy. Breakfast was wonderful, if you go when it opens at 7am pastries are still warm. Small selection of books to read and games to play. It is a couple of km to town...

Customer service and support is excellent, especially the booking and assistance of Flybus departures.

This was a lovely hotel to stay in. From the management to the kitchen staff- all lovely people, very warm and welcoming. The room we stayed in was bright, spacious (for 2), and very clean. There was a large wardrobe, tea/coffee making station, a flatscreen TV and a good sized bathroom with walk in shower. The double bed was very comfortable (compared to some hotels!!). There was no noise concerns...

The room was great! The staff were very helpful and we were able to get an early check in since our flight landed at 7am. Hotel was very quiet and nice! Definitely worth a try!

Room was great. It would be great if the rooms were as updated as the lobby area. The rooms are a little dated and thr hallways leading to the rooms have the grandma's house smell, but overall it was good. I'd come back.

Everything was fine; just a hotel to sleep while you are vacationing, nothing special.

Stay at Hotel Iceland Comfort was pleasant. Price of accommodation very acceptable. Room neat, clean and comfortable. Receptionist extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast excellent but a little on the expensive side.

Smell of a fish dish through the reception of the hotel every evening. Not in the rooms though. Room clean and comfortable thoughout the stay.

Very nice staff and nice room!!Have coffee inside as well as tea.However,the mattress and the bed needs renovation as it quite old.

The official website advertised luggage storage, but it wasn't available, completely disrupting my travel plans. The staff's service was also very poor. The location is remote, with no proper roads for loading and unloading luggage; I had to carry heavy luggage up stairs covered in snow. However, the room was beautifully decorated, the heating was good, and the bathtub was nice.

Very cool, quiet place. Downtown is a 20 minute drive away. 40 to Thingavellir park. There's no reception, but check-in was easy. Bed and pillow were comfortable (subjective). Hot tub was great since it was snowing. We had a great time.

This was WAY overpriced for what it was. I didn't expect it to be so close to the freeway. The windows weren't even see through. This honestly felt like a scam

Stayed for 1 night as a family of 4 in the Krafla Dome. Lovely experience, nice and cosy and well equipped. Hot tub needed topped up with water and 2 men came within 5-10 minutes after I phoned and topped it up. Would definitely recommend a stay here, it was a nice way to end our busy 4 days exploring this beautiful country.

I was expecting rustic but at least thought it would have a door. Nice place, good bed, warm. Wood stove even though we found out wood is a premium in iceland.

Clean room, amazing views, comfy beds. We enjoyed the extra touch of champagne and macaroons left for us. Coffee was also there, no need to purchase and bring with you. The code entry for the door worked well. And hreyfill taxi service knows how to get you to and from the Domes and Reykjavik. Be sure to schedule with the taxi the night before you want to leave to avoid a wait.

Love this!!!! It’s awesome, the guys there are kind and passionate.

We had two different kinds of rooms here. 1 two bedroom apt (at the top of the rainbow road) and 1 double bedroom onsite in the hotel. The hotel room was very cramped but fine for just sleeping. The 2 bedroom apt was huge and in a great location BUT it was super noisy on Saturday night (late) when people were going out/home. If that's not an issue for you, highly recommend. If it is, ask for a room...

Great location! Only a block or so away from rainbow road and about a 5-10 min walk from the church or bus stop 8. Walk to BSI bus terminal is a little bit further (10-15 minutes), but not bad. The rooms have so many outlets which was greatly appreciated. Very friendly staff and breakfast was good.

Very accessible and centrally located. Near restaurants, places of interest. I will recommend.

Location was great, it was walking distance to most places. There was a really nice bar just opposite. Service staff were helpful and pleasant. The room I stayed in was quite small. I did not quite like the layout of the room. The TV was in an odd location too. The lighting in the room could be improved. There were stains on the toilet mirror, felt that these should be changed as it gives the impression...

Hotel Ódinsvé is ideally located in the city center, within easy walking distance of major attractions such as the cathedral, making it very convenient for tourists. The on-site restaurant offers delicious meals and is worth a try. However, since Iceland has 20 hours of sunshine in summer and the room's light-shielding effect is slightly insufficient, it may affect sleep quality. If you stay in the...

A classically modern hotel. The rooms do feel a little tight but enough to move around. The staff is very accommodating and easy to work with. Hotel itself is on a strange one way that Google Maps has a hard time directing to. Visited here in mid February so it was quiet and lots nearby to walk to. There are a lot of nearby bars and restaurants so I could see this being a popular spot.

Staff was wonderful. Helped us book fly us to airport and held our bags for us. Room was amazing! I would def stay here again if I return to Iceland. Close to everything downtown and the restaurant was so good. We had dinner and breakfast there!

The Apotek Restaurant has a great breakfast menu. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Staff Service is excellent.

The staff was attentive and the hotel was clean as was the room and bathroom. It is at a great location within walking distance from bus stops and shopping and some of the important sightseeing locations. The breakfast spread is really good and the hotel’s restaurant food is simply amazing. The reason I can’t give a 5 because the room itself was small though, we had a double twin-bed room, there...

The rooms are beautiful and comfortable. It's well located close to bus stop 2 for drop off from the bus terminal, but also very walkable as well. It's also centrally located to the main shopping area with plenty of restaurants nearby. I highly recommend this Apotek hotel and would stay here for future visits.

The staff was great, rooms are very small and the hotel charges 50 euros for early check in. Breakfast is ok, not great.

Clean and basic rooms, comfortable beds, nice breakfast.

The hotel is very quiet. Great location.

Great! The hotel was clean and the breakfast was delicious! The front desk staff were kind and spoke in easy-to-understand English, which was very helpful!

Overall, it was a nice hotel. Breakfast was included and it was reasonably priced. It was a little far from Reykjavik, so it was a 10-minute drive away, which was great because we could see the Northern Lights. However, the room door wouldn't lock.

Room was clean, staff was kind. Really like that it was close to the city but far enough to get from the crowds

The room is spacious and the bed is comfortable. The location is fantastic as it offers free parking and close to a famous bakery, Costco and Sky lagoon. The breakfast is a typical Nordic breakfast which is very nice. Staff are warm and friendly. I will definitely come back again.

Good hotel, quite centrally located, with ample parking right on site. I really enjoyed the breakfast, but the seating there was a bit awkward – you sit too low and it's too soft.

We had a lovely stay at Hotel Muli. Patricia, who checked us in on 1st January, was very kind and helpful. After arriving on an early-morning flight, it was really nice to be greeted with a smile. Even better, our room was ready, so we were able to check in early. The room itself was clean and comfortable. One thing to note is that housekeeping is done upon request, so you’ll need to ask if you want...

The hotel room was clean and spacious, with enough room to open multiple suitcases. It included breakfast and complimentary hot drinks available at all times. There was also a dining area with utensils. The location is a bit far from the city center, but easily accessible by bus.

Very strong smell of chlorine when entered the room including chlorine smell on the towels. No cleaning services or bed sheet changing ( we stayed 2 nights ), the receptionist told us it's the policy and if we would like it changed we should go get the bed sheet/towels they provided by ourselves which was not mentioned when checked-in or when we booked. Breakfast was very basic. Despite the good location...

Luckily, there was parking available right in front of the hotel. The room was clean and tidy, and there was plenty of hot water and heating. Breakfast was excellent, and drinks were provided in the common area. Everything was great, except for getting a bit lost initially trying to find my way with the elevator directions.

Provide free coffee to traveler, friendly counter staff..

The best hotel if you're going to Reykjavik. In front of the main church. It was a wonderful experience. A quiet, comfortable, and clean place with a decent breakfast for the price. Last but not least, we want to highlight Leonardo's kindness; he helped us with everything we needed, always with a wonderful portuguese smile ;) Thank you!

I really liked staying at this hotel. I stayed on the 4th floor to get the larger room. The other reviews are correct, the slant ceiling is no joke. This is not a room for tall people. The bathroom shower is also very tight. There is also no elevator so consider your packing. With that said, the staff is amazing. Someone is always available, friendly and knowledgeable. The breakfast is fantastic...

Currently here with my daughter and she'd like to move in. Lol. We are in the west building facing the church. The location is great and there's a free parking lot across the road. Because we came in from Canada our sleep times are way off, but the black out curtains helped a lot. The road noise can be a bit high but it didn't affect us at all. It's a corner room so we get a lot of people outside taking...

Good Place， just infront of the church

Excellent location. Brilliant staff, nothing was too much trouble for them. No tea or coffee making facilities in the room, although there was tea, coffee and hot chocolate available on demand in the downstairs bar... not really convenient in the middle of the night. I had quite a poky little room right at the top of the hotel. Facilities in the room left a little to be desired. No spare electricity...

Everything about this hotel in Reykjavík was perfect. The location is outstanding, making it easy to explore the city on foot. The breakfast was delicious with a great selection, and a perfect start to the day. I also loved that there was complimentary coffee and tea available in the lobby — a really nice touch after walking around in the Icelandic weather. Overall, a fantastic stay. I would absolutely...

Despite the hotel’s somewhat unpreposessing location in the middle of what appears to be an industrial estate, we did enjoy our stay in room 501 here. Points of note- The hotel is approximately 2 miles from the centre of Reykjavik. So prepare to walk, hire a car or make use of taxis etc. We were told the hotel has no reception desk-and we never did see or find one. You need to contact them in advance...

No reception but they emailed us with the code to get in and the code to our room which all worked fine, no lift, main light not working but that didn’t bother us much as we had the big windows so there was plenty of daylight, didn’t see any cleaners, bad smell from hot water was everywhere in Iceland so no just this hotel, bathroom door didn’t close but other than that everything was clean and done...

The rate of experience definitely is dar better than the pat review. The hotel just need to focus of micro detail of booking such as breakfast , the capsule given for the coffee maker machine should be compatible . But above all , the experience is really comforting as the hotel names as. The room is well renovated, Their in house geo soap is great smell and relaxing. The shower is of good high standard...

Not a bad location just make shaw you get the bus save some money 🤣

Very easy to do the self check-in. I just wish there was an elevator but it wasn't too bad bringing my bag up the stairs. Very nice room.

Clean and nice, but no change of towels. No staff present. Digital communications only. Not close to city centre, but lots of restaurants nearby. Overall a pleasent stay.

Nice hotel in an ideal location in downtown close to the shops in Laugavegur and bus stops. Reception was friendly and were helpful to answering any questions or requests we had during our stay. Rooms were small and basic but good if you're just using it as a place to rest during the night. Be aware that the rooms are not very soundproofed and that you may hear noise from the bar located across the...

Fantastic hotel in a great location, fantastically placed for the bus stops, the shopping in town or the nearby supermarket. Farooq was a great host, incredibly friendly and fantastically knowledgeable on all things Iceland even though he hails from West Yorkshire. We stayed in room 505 so was a bit away from any street noise, highly recommend and would definitely stay again

Second visit to this hotel. It maybe not the fanciest of hotels or the biggest, but the staff, location and cleanliness make this hotel fantastic. Front desk,Rushka and Farooq (who asked me to say he was the handsome guy) are first class. Nothing is too much trouble. Night staff and housekeeping are also great. This hotel does not have a bar but there are plenty nearby, so this for me is not a negative...

The hotel has a good location in the city center. The front desk service was excellent; a Pakistani man there even gave us a map showing us places to visit. The room was very nice and spacious, but the kettle leaked.

The location is great. The front desk staff were very friendly and recommended nearby restaurants. The breakfast was not luxurious, but very delicious. We were able to check in earlier than expected.

Well located. Walls are thin and could be noisy at night.

The hotel is centrally positioned. Staff are very helpful and accommodating. My plans changed and staff were very understanding.

Booked for a short stay with my son. Staff were very friendly and helpful, answering questions knowledgeably, around where to eat, directions, activities, ordering a taxi and using public transport. Hotel and room were very clean and in order. For the price it was very good value, and met our requirements. Nothing flashy, but good daylight and everything worked. Room was warm and cosy. Personally...

The location was great! All the bus stops are nearby, and there's a supermarket close by too. Highly recommend it.

The hotel is really in the center of the city.

All the staff is so welcoming and helpful. The room is small, but cleaning is perfect. Breakfast is simple, but good. I slept good, but shower pressure is not to good. I will recommend this hotel 🙂

The hotel is located in the center heart, just next to the rainbow road and surrounded by bars and restaurants. 10-minute walk to the nearest by supermarket, Bonus and very near to the Airport transfer bus stop number 14 and tourist bus stop number 6. Breakfast is offered to all hotel guests. Just one reminder there are a few steps before you reach the lift of the hotel and the reception is on the...

This is a good boutique hotel with rooms that give a quality feel. Excellent shower and balcony that added to my stay after enjoying my adventures in Iceland, I knew I would come back to a warm and clean room. The Breakfast was a great way to start your day. The only tiny issue was a loud door closing in the corridor due to a heavy spring closure. Great staff.

Excellent hotel, great views, and attentive service.

I was looking for an affordable hotel in Iceland, where prices are high, and I ended up here. The room was so small that I had to sleep on the bed, but the bed and linens were comfortable enough to help me relax and recover from my fatigue.

2-night stay The location is great and the downstairs bar is excellent. The breakfast is good but a bit hit and miss with some items. Coffee is excellent! The basic rooms are very small, so if with two suitcases gets cramped. Staff is lovely.

Good Spot Clean room and property. The front desk was very helpful and patient with our many questions about the area.

The hotel is a 5-minute walk from the pier, and the staff are friendly. While there's no parking available, there are paid parking spaces opposite the hotel, and free parking is a 10-minute walk away, but ask the staff. Breakfast is simple, and the seating is limited, but perfect, with no waiting. Children can share a bed at no extra charge.

The hotel is conveniently located in downtown and 3 mins to bus stop 3. The rooms are decent sized with amenities. The staff was nice. But if you’re staying here on the weekend and facing the street then just be prepared it’s really loud with all the surrounding bars and clubs

Overall: A generally sweet boutique hotel with excellent location. Glad that they had a room available for immediate check-in, given our long flight. Loved the bedding and the extra-thick quilt for winter-y weather. The room, though, does not come with air-conditioning, but you can make do with the openable window. The heater, on the other hand, works perfectly. The room lacks a tissue box, and the...

Expensive, like everything in Reykjavik. There was a qr code to get free breakfast at neighbor hotel, but you do have to pay for it in reservation (kind of misleading). Our room was amazing. Location you can't beat. Needed soap and you have to get it yourself, but they didn't have any. We eventually got soap.

We were given a lovely warm welcome and the staff were amazing throughout our stay. Nice sized room with everything you need and really comfortable bed. A bit of noise from the street outside but the hotel provides you with earplugs and a sleep mask which was a nice touch.

It's OK, a little noisy on the street

They are very responsive, hotel is just next to halal restaurant and supermarkets my stay was perfect
