Note that these are two separate properties on opposite sides of the city pond, but both are conveniently located. We stayed in apartment 90 at the Embassy, just down the street from the Russian embassy. It was like having our own apartment in the city but with daily maid service. For a rate less than most hotels, we got a spacious one-bedroom apartment. Other properties have problems with noise on weekends; we stayed a Friday night and it was very quiet on this street. As with other apartment rentals, there isn't a registration desk or staff that you can go to when there are issues, just a phone number.

We didn't arrive until 2:00am and all we had to do was ring the doorbell and be buzzed in. Our key and welcome package was right there on the table and we were all set for the rest of our stay. Overall our experience was perfect at Castle House. It's in a great location directly across from the lake and a very, very short walk to city center where all the action is. It was clean, cozy, and fun. I would definitely stay here again. It was a little strange not having a lobby or actually seeing someone for check-in and check-out but it was no big deal.

Great location - steps from the center of the city, but on a quiet side street.

Our apartment was very close to the city, yet just out of reach of any noise from the nightlife. It was clean and comfortable and the staff was accommodating. We stayed in the hotel during summer. It would have been nice to have the option to use blackout curtains, since the sun did not set!

Fabulous location, beautiful clean apartment, it was wonderful! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, delightful people who were cooperative and most gracious. It is an easy walk to everything, two supermarkets are near by, so shopping was fun and cooking was a snap in this well appointed apartment. They even provided tea light candles and champagne flutes! I had to leave the apartment at 5am for an early flight to Germany, the Staff arranged everything for me, even waking me up at 4am! The gentleman who drove me to the airport was delightful, despite the early hour. All in all my stay here was great! Thank you Castle House!

Our stay at the Castle House Luxury Apartments was fantastic. The location is great--just a few minutes walk from all the main restaurants, bars, tourist sites, and shopping. But--the apartment itself was very quiet and private. The apartment was very clean, and it was so nice to have a little kitchen and sitting area. Finding the apartment upon arrival via the FlyBus was a breeze--the instructions provided were very helpful, clear and friendly. I would definitely recommend these apartments to anyone traveling to Reykjavik!

We liked the location, close to restaurants, shopping and downtown. We didn't like not having our towels replaced even after mentioning that we didn't want the room cleaned but wanted our towels changed. After settling in after a very busy day we didn't have a channel we could watch on Television and the volume didn't work on the set. The water was very foul smelling and we had to purchase water even to brush our teeth.

Location, in the heart of Reykjavik. Apt. 64 was more like a garden shack than a luxury apartment. Perhaps the other units were better, but I do not know. On top of this, the tv was not working!

Easy walking distance to museums, shopping, dining and the harbor (for whale watching excursions). Pay parking on street is convenient and the cheapest of 3 tiers in Reykjavik. Adjacent to a pleasant residential neighborhood. Smallish bathroom with shower-but-no-shower-stall, requiring the use of a squeegee to dry the floor.

The city centre location was perfect and yet it was quick and easy to get out and in to the countryside. The accomodation was clean and of a high standard.

Convenient, great location, good value for money. The shower was very small and there was no separation between it and the rest of the bathroom. Bit pokey.

It was a clean, attractive and comfortable room. The location was perfect, on the lake and central to restaurants and shopping. The cost was very affordable. I would stay there again and recommend it to my friends.

Inget. Allt var fiasko. Det som är skivet på hemsida är inte sant. Två perssoner ska sova på en enkel sägn! Vid kraftiga protester hitades en säng till. Det var en dubbel sägn på hjul. Det rullade hela rumet som på rullskriskor.Jag fick ingen faktura. Jag vet inte heler hur mycket de har tagit from gredit kortet ännu.Det finns ingen komunikation mellam flygplaten och hotelet .Alla andra hotel har det. Det hela är skandal. Jag rekomendera att ni tar bort dena hotelet fråm ert hemsida. Jag måste lita på er att era hotel är som ni säger att det är.

El apartamento no esta mal, lo unico que si reservas para una pareja deberian entender que no significa que uno dormira en una cama individual y otro en el sofa... Lo malo que nos han cobrado 45 euros de más y aún estamos espera do que se dignen a contestarnos que nos lis devuelven... Reykjavik genial!!

- L'emplacement - Le service de nettoyage - Le côté "fonctionnel" de l'appartement - L'absence de réception - Le bruit en journée uniquement à cause du couloir aérien qui passe juste au dessus

De appartementen zijn centraal gelegen, dichtbij het centrum en toch rustig. Wij hadden een studio, niet groot maar praktisch en modern ingericht. Prima bed. Doordat deze studio in de tuin ligt, konden we buiten zitten.

This was a great location in Reykjavik and we loved how the apartments were appointed. Very comfortable, with all of the necessities. The staff was very friendly and helpful and communicated well over the internet. It was difficult to get just cold water from the tap that wasn't mixed with some of the sulfurous hot water. This must be due to the plumbing? Also, it was expensive for us. Especially since the apartments were in a daylight basement location. Iceland was expensive in general, so this may be a reasonable rate for the area.

Die Lage ist sehr gut, 400 Meter bis zur Fußgängerzone der Innenstadt! Das kostenlose Wifi hat prima funktioniert und war schnell. Kurze Wege zum Busterminal.Hilfsbereite Bedienstete!! :) Das Bad war extrem feucht und schlecht zu entlüften, kein Fenster!!! Schimmelbildung an der Duschwand. Mein Schlüssel war nicht vereinbarungsgem. Am vorgegebenen Platz, der Check in verzögerte sich dadurch unnötig, schade.
