We had a lovely room over looking the sea and although lovely the gem of this hotel is the staff who cannot do enough to help you. We unfortunately got stranded in Iceland due to weather at Heathrow, the staff did EVERYTHING they could to help us out and their kindness will remain with me for a long time. THANK... More

I would highly recommend this hotel for its location, friendly staff and breakfast! We were delighted with our choice of hotel for a three night break and although the rooms were not large they were more than adequate for the duration of our stay. The staff couldn't have been more helpful and to top it all we got to see... More

Cash machine one street away. 24 hr supermarket (not allowed to sell alcohol & it's VERY expensive anyway!) behind hotel (if on a budget consider upgrading to a studio room with cooking facilities as you...

This hotel is conveniently situated for central Reykjavik and although the rooms are not luxurious the buffet breakfast is very good and the reception staff are brilliant and extremely helpful. You can upgrade to a studio room which gives you lots of space and a small kitchenette - worth knowing in a city where restaurant prices are high. Definitely recommended. More

A good breakfast buffet with a good selection of breads, meats, cereals and drinks. The staff are super helpful. If you need somewhere good to stay with a good location near to the centre,... More
