    The room could use an update. The flooring is carpet and seemed worn. The bathroom shower was very small and the sliding doors were sticky in the tracks. The wood / pressboard facade under the sink in both rooms that we stayed in was falling apart. When we checked in during our second stay, the person working the front desk didn’t actually give us our room number with the code. She looked at us and said ‘check your booking.com messages, the room number and code should be there’. Not exactly top notch customer service…

    The breakfast buffet had a nice variety. There was an opportunity to park in a couple of spots in front of the hotel and more spots available across the street for free. If those are not available, then there are metered spots available, but they sent us instructions and a YouTube video in advance, so it was easy to figure out. The room was clean and quiet. We were only here for one night at the beginning of our trip and one night at the end, so didn’t spend much time here.

    The hotel is conveniently located - about a half mile from downtown. The breakfast was good and they even had some gluten free options. The beds were comfortable and the room was clean.

    The breakfast menu never changed the entire time we were there, and there were so few items that it got boring fast. While we had a place to park every day, it was always a gamble as there is no actual hotel parking, just street parking. One night we got back after 8pm - the lobby doors were locked and our code didn't work. We called the number listed but someone was in the lobby and let us in before the operator could fix it. No fridge in the room made packing for a day trip/having snacks available tricky.

    The hotel staff was mostly pleasant and helpful - not very friendly but that could be a cultural miscommunication/expectation. There was breakfast every morning, it was walking distance to downtown and the walking path near the water, and they had a coffee machine that was available anytime.

    Though we knew to expect it, there was only someone at the reception desk from 8am to 8pm.

    22 Hill Hotel was what we expected! We enjoyed the breakfast, which had its own area in a restaurant attached to the hotel. They even treat their hot water so it doesn't smell like sulfur! (Hot water in Iceland comes from underwater geothermal springs, so typically contains sulfur and thus smells like eggs.)

    There was construction work in front of the hotel, right under our window, so it was very noisy during the days. The bathroom was sooo cold, there was no heating at all.

    Not crazy about the check in process. They send you a code for your room to your phone and that’s the code used to get in and out of your room. Little old fashion still prefer a key. Location could’ve been better. Lots of construction going on across the street and quite a long walk to the main part of the city.

    Stayed two different nights . One of the beginning at the trip and one at the end. The first night room was just OK. Not a very good view of the alley. Second night that we stayed at the end of our trip room was much brighter and nicer. Staff was friendly hotel was clean. The plus is that they have a restaurant that’s exceptional.

    Not much, maybe the bathroom; although it is as clean the shower was a little annoying and not much surface area around basin.

    Great location for walking Reykjavik, good breakfast, comfortable room, helpful and friendly reception lady. Would stay here again.

    Only Stairs or steep incline to front door of hotel. Difficult with large or heavy or multiple suitcases and no assistance provided by the hotel. Some older ladies had a difficult time without hotel assistance both coming and leaving the property...perhaps not best for clients with large suitcases or older.

    Close to cruise port and easily accessible via taxi. Wonderful buffet breakfast with many options. Within walking distance of shops.

    Had ordered a take away breakfast as we had an early start and an email from the hotel asking us to sort this on check in. Tried to do that with reception and sent around corner to restaurant for breakfast was situated. They said it was too late to order as they hadn't been told. Went back to reception who reluctantly told us to pick up a bag from them at 8pm. Received a round of sandwiches, two apples and two chocolate wafers for two people. Had to keep overnight in room. Not very good

    Comfy quiet room

    This was a solid, dependable tourist hotel. The restaurant was an unexpected delight! I've advised friends to seek out your restaurant even if not staying at the hotel.

    The room was unusually small and very warm. By mid afternoon the sun Made the room uncomfortably warm, even with the darkening shade down and window open. The room and bathroom were very small, could not have one person shower while one used the toilet. Location was close enough to city center you could walk, but less mobile couples might think it too far away. Staff was very pleasant and tried hard to be helpful.
