Eyja Guldsmeden Hotel
Brautarholt 10-14, 105 Reykjavík, Iceland – Great location - show map
Friendly helpful staff and relaxed atmosphere. Not too big as to be inpersonable
AustraliaThe staff where friendly, accommodating, the building was clean, good location and great breakfast selection. Good base for joining small and larger tours of Iceland. Went to Iceland during summer, the blackout curtains were good enough not to use an eye cover. Pre-warned about sulphur smell in some hotels showers (Volcanic Spring water), no issue in Eyja. Overall a great place to stay.
United KingdomThe girls on the front desk were enthusiastic and answered all our queries.
AustraliaClose to the center, very good breakfast, staff very friendly
SwitzerlandLoved staying here for our week in Iceland - food and service excellent, lovely helpful staff.
New ZealandThe staff were perfect, food was brilliant the rooms were perfect for us and the whole ethos of the hotel was excellent. It is a 10 minute walk to the main centre of the city which did not bother us as you simply walk right along the Main Street all the way.
United KingdomBooking suggested this hotel as the one we had booked cancelled our reservation just one hour before check-in! We really appreciated booking's suggestion as they offered us the chance to stay in a great hotel the last day of our trip. The mattress and pillows were perfect. Amenities in the bathroom were top notch (they are available for purchase in the lobby). The decoration was in balinese style. We really liked it although it was a little out of place. There is a gym we didn't use. There is complimentary coffee and tea available in the lobby all day with various plant-based milks. Breakfast was very good. The staff were friendly. I'd like to specially mention the guy in the kitchen (from Moldova) who went above and beyond to serve us.
GreeceLovely stay at Eyja for our mini-moon, the staff went above and beyond for us to have a comfortable short stay (including a bottle of prosecco in the room!). Well decorated, comfortable and nice toiletries. We enjoyed the bar area as well.
United StatesHelpfulness of receptionists. Complimentary tea and coffee all day in bar / restaurant. Hotel has a lift. Decor of bedroom was restful.
United KingdomI like the interior design of the hotel, breakfast, staff friendliness, free parking space and cleanliness of the room.
