Hotel was handy for getting to centre only 15 minute walk or regular buses from outside the hotel. Staff very helpful. There was no need to go hungry at breakfast. Rooms basic but clean and warm. We were offered the chance to upgrade when we arrived. Would stay again Well worth doing the Golden Circle trip and the South Coast... More

I spent four nights at this hotel with no problems. I booked this hotel as part of a package with Easyjet holidays for the crazily cheap price of £167! The deluxe rooms in this hotel are comfortable with nice views of the sea and mountains. The breakfast is basic but nourishing with a good selection of breads, ham, cheese, eggs... More

We found this hotel good value for money. The basic rooms are small but perfectly adequate. They are exceptionally clean and at night the door is closed from the stairs and small lounge area on each floor, so we found it quiet. The bed was very comfortable and we had a good view over to the sea and mountains. The... More

We spent two nights in this hotel during our visit of Iceland. Rooms are small, but its not a problem, staff is helpful, breakfast was also ok. I saw that there are also rooms which are in the middle of the hotel so they have just one window with the view of hotel aisle/corridor :P (with short curtain) ... when... More

We have used the Cabin Hotel in 2012 and 2013 when we visit our son who works in Reykjavik. Our recent 4 night visit in May 2013 has confirmed our initial impression that this is a very good place to stay if you are on a budget in Iceland. We got the Cabin "Superior" double room for about £40 a... More

I visited Iceland on 21 March 2013 with my mother for three nights. The hotel was in an ideal and central location to Reykjavik (the city center) and the Reykjavik Excursion tour coaches collected people from right outside the hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean and tidy. We booked the Blue Lagoon tour, as well... More

My daughter and I stayed here in March on a Northern Lights Tour. It is a modern, utilitarian hotel which exceeded our expectations on the basis of the excellent help and assistance given by the unfailingly cheerful desk staff. We upgraded to a superior room, which was a good decision as it gave us a extra room and a fantastic... More

Overall I liked this hotel and would use it again. Nothing much to get really excited about. I travelled solo and my room was a standard twin. It would have been a little cramped for two and had all the basic requirements but nothing more. I was aware that some rooms don't have external windows, just one looking out to... More

The hotel was very clean and comfortable and efficiently run. The one drawback was that it's rather a long walk from the city centre. Bear in mind that there are few public transport options in Reyjavik and the weather isn't famously clement. However, if you are going on any tours out of town you can arrange to be picked up...
