“Would book again.”

Nothing to dislike.
I liked the position of the hotel, it was close for going into town and is not far from the front. There's a 24/7 round the corner, which was handy, where you can buy cards for the bus, the bus stop is also close by and an evening meal down the road at Reykvajik Kitchen hit the spot. I had a single room on the top floor which had a balcony and a really nice view of the Hallgrimskirkja church, it was warm and comfortable with tea and coffee and a fridge. All the staff were friendly and helpful.

Price was too high for the standard of the hotel.
Very nice and friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast ok, and good with free parking. Location is a little outside, but yet good walking distance to the center. The overall price was very high in comparison to the standard wich is the only reaoson for th ereview to be lower.

It would have been better with a proper double bed, rather than two singles beds paged together. The triple room was excellent.
It was lovely, clean and warm.

The building is a bit old (built in 1992): Noise of the elevator is very big, if you are sensitive to noise, ask reception to give you room as far as possible to the elevator. Soundproff not good, when neighbor room close its door you will clearly feel the vibration through the wall.
good location room facing inside is quiet reception is kind and helpful
