This hotel is better than it sounds in some of the reviews. I wasn't really sure what to expect, but was pleasantly surprised. It's kind of a strange hotel just because it is located on the fourth floor of what I think is an office building. We didn't have any issues checking in, and did see several staff around the... more

Bolholt is close to the Hiltoon hotel. The appartements are a little old (especially the bathrooms), but okay. They just do not have any flair (not like in the pictures on the website!). "Incl. Breakfast" means, that you´ll find Bread, cheese, butter, jam, milk, Cereals in the fridge! Good thing: The landlord borrowed us his old laptop, so we could... more

Arriving at Bolthole, there were no keys at the desk for us. We used the phone in the hall, but the person who answered had no access to booking details, so we were asked to try several rooms by using the spare keys behind the desk - this obviously worried one guest when we entered their already occuppied room with... more

stayed for one week, was a little worried when reviews said it was 'out of town' however its situated a mere 5 minutes walk into the heart of the city, located opposite the Hilton and Grand hotels too (with a pizzahut opposite). clean rooms, comfy beds, keys waiting for us on arrival, friendly staff. Highly recommended. more

I wasn't sure what to expect after riding the elevator up to the 4th floor to find an empty desk with my key on it. The room wasn't clean when we went inside so I had to call the manager. He apologised and when we got back from our walk downtown it was fixed up. The room is pretty simple... more

Our stay at the Boholt Guesthouse was a pleasant one. Our keys were waiting for us and our room was big and clean. It is all furnished with Ikea, but the beds are good, the kitchen is well equiped so you can prepare your own food, the bathroom is clean and there is free wifi internet (I am actually writing... more

we booked 4 nights in may, upon arrival not a soul around. we finally got ahold of one of the managers, Halldor, who went above and beyond. seeing as we were travelling slightly in the "off" season, the rooms were to be closed in preparation for the "on" season, somehow our booking was confirmed. Halldor was very apologetic and offered... more

The service is really terrible. It was written that towels were changed every two days, linen every 5 days and the room was cleaned every two days. We stayed there for 11 nights. The towel were changed twice, because we asked for it. We also had to ask for toilet paper, soap and garbage bag. They nerver cleaned the room... more

The Bolholt Guesthouse (Boholt N 6) is far from the city centre (20 minutes walk, or 1600 ISK taxi ride), the rooms looking over the sea towards Esja are ok, but we had room number 11, which looked ok at the beginning, but incorporates a small room for the climate control and airventilation system of the whole building, which is... more

Our stay at Bolholt guesthouse was very nice. We had been in Iceland before but never in this guesthouse. We came there very late in the evening and collected our key from the box on the front door, all access into the building and the rooms is easy and it's very clever of them to have this box for late... more
