Meeting the staff and operating family. Icelanders are somewhat like birds never exposed to humans, warms, curious and very giving!

Peter United States of America

I loved that this place was an eco friendly hotel. The room was gorgeous and had everything I needed, even a luggage rack which is extremely useful. The front desk was helpful friendly.

Adellesf United States of America

This property was warm and inviting and while the room was small I actually really enjoyed the quaint and comfortable atmosphere. The staff was wonderful as was the food and drink. I should note, the travel to downtown, while about 20 minutes on foot, was very easy. I felt safe as a first time solo, international and woman traveler.

Sarah United States of America

There were no sheets in between the cover and bed.

Dechantell United States of America

Really nuca hotel, comfortable and good spaces, breakfast is good, service good.

Pilar Mexico

A beautiful hotel, close to the downtown shopping and restaurant areas without actually being in it (so it was a quiet area!). The staff was always pleasant and helpful, especially Angelika, who always seemed to be on duty whenever we needed help with something (confirming a bus tour, printing our COVID tests for our return trip). She was amazing! We loved that the hotel has a focus on sustainability, with lots of little things they do differently that add up!

Michael United States of America

It was super cute and the staff was super friendly. we had a great time. The location was great too.

Jennifer United States of America

The facility and room were BEAUTIFUL!!! We were blown away with the attention to decoration and comfort! We loved all the things in the bathroom available for use, and especially the reusable bottles! The staff was so friendly and kind upon our check in, and even offered to check the weather for us for the following day on where we were going to. This place was amazing!

Allie United States of America

The staff was so helpful as we learned to navigate Reykjavik. Both a booked day excursion bus and our car service for the airport never showed. The front desk staff helped us by offering to make phone calls to solve both issues and put us at ease. The decor of the lobby has a modern vibe , yet warm decor that makes you feel at home. It provides an eco friendly, earthy environment in a cool way.

K United States of America

Breakfast buffet was excellent with lots of choices and nicely refreshed all the time. Free water bottle to fill and carry for the day. Room looked over the sea and town. Bed comfy. Bathroom quite tiny but sufficient.
