This was our second time staying here and will definitely stay here again on our next trip. Breakfast was great, parking was not a problem at all and cleanliness is 101%.

Great location with ample parking in front of the building. It was easily accessible for traveling to other areas around and outside of Reykjavík. The property was very clean, and the rooms were very spacious. It is a quick walk to downtown, or a quick drive if you prefer. Breakfast was included, and the staff were all very helpful as well. Highly recommended!

Spotless beautiful rooms, breakfast was also very enjoyable a nice bonus! Not really walking distance to main area for bars and restaurants, harbour etc but we had a car so 10 mins and your right there. We chose the hotel comforts over the location and were very glad we did would pick the same hotel again.

Excellent stay...I booked two nights upon arrival and one night on my way out. This was the best place I stayed at during my 10-day trip. I arrived very early in the morning and I was offered breakfast and allowed to check in early which allowed me to shower and take a nap. The staff is very kind and knowledgeable and gave me some good tips for local things to do in the city. Breakfast was A+ and it's so nice it's include, plus the coffee machine is delicious and the best from my trip. The beds are comfortable, the hotel is quiet, parking is free, and the TV in the room can be cast to (It was great to have Netflix after a long day). Rooms are beautiful and have plenty of outlets and lighting options, plus the heated bathroom floors are lovely. I would stay here again and recommend it to friends!
