We loved everything about this hotel. The service at the front desk was 24/7, and all on duty were always very helpful with suggestions, getting taxis, etc. They even set up a private tour for us. Some may prefer a restaurant with a free breakfast, but there were places to eat nearby and we also went to the market and bought breakfast/ lunch some days—there was a nice sized refrigerator in the room.
They were renovating due to a broken pipe, but that did not dampen our enjoyment of our stay—the workers were never in the way.
The decor is pleasant, but nothing fancy.
We also loved the location—it was well within walking distance of good restaurants and sights.
For ice cream lovers—there is an excellent ice cream parlor (no seating) across the skateboarders’ park—a 5 minute walk.
We really loved Reykjavík and hope to visit again some day. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you to the owners and staff for the wonderful experience!
