Amazing staff and great location. A short walk to downtown. There is a super market right behind the hotel. The breakfast was lovely l. Absolutely loved the pancakes. The place itself is a bit expensive but that is to be expected as most of the stuff is imported

Staff is always friendly. Breakfast is wonderful. Rooms are quiet. On this stay, Simi at the front desk was always cheerful and helpful; be it getting us a taxi to keeping us abreast road conditions on the day we flew home, she was our go-to.

Great stay! Breakfast was delicious and had so many options. Staff was very kind, room was clean and spacious. Great location, easy to drive around town, or head out to explore; 8 minutes from Hallgrimskirkja. Has free parking in front of hotel, spots are few and a bit tight but i had no issues. Quick market walkable behind the hotel if you want to grab snacks.

We had a lovely stay! We booked the triple superior to have a little extra space for our last couple days in Iceland. The bathroom was updated. We had access to walk outside from our room. The bed was a touch on the firm side but comfortable. The rooms were very clean and the staff were very friendly. The only thing I wish we had in the room was a kettle and coffee maker tho they did have these available in the lobby all day, sometimes it’s just nice to have your morning cup of coffee as you’re getting ready for the day. Great location and easy to find. Complimentary continental breakfast was great! We even saw the Northern lights on our last night!
