I decided to book this hotel after reading the reviews on Trip Advisor. I was curious to know what breakfast would be since it was mentioned in most reviews, usually described as poor-adequate, but nobody ever wrote what you received for breakfast! Well, I can enlighten you all! We received a roll (you are given seeded, white or granary), two... more

this hotel was basic, neat, clean and reasonable for the money compared to charges at other local hotels. breakfast was also basic, but delivered to your room and adequate facilities to make teas and coffee were in the room. a good place to stay if you are not a backpacker, but also don't want to spend the extraordinary high prices... more

Yes you can stay in Reykjavik in a large, very large modern room for under £100 night!. A room with large double bed, (well 2 singles pushed together), large settee, two armchairs, coffee table, walk in shower and with 4 windows facing the sea! Breakfast is very basic, just a tray left outside your room, but hey, you can't have... more
