The breakfast selection was excellent and delicious! The front desk staff were very helpful and were always ready to answer any questions we had during our stay. I highly recommend Hotel Vellir. The rooms are quiet and comfortable, and the location is excellent. It offers easy access to the highway towards Reykjavik or to Keflavik airport, making everyday road trips a breeze.

Good stuff. Good breakfast. Ideal location for those traveling by car around Iceland. The only thing for the hotel is a smell in corridors. And the linens could be a better quality or replaced soon.

Didn’t spend much time here but sports bar food was ok. Breakfast was included more of continental style with local flare. It is all pretty pricey in Iceland already and then add on hotel mark up for food but price of the hotel was decent for the quality.

Good hotel. Comfortable. Radiators were noisy when turned on. Also had a well stacked gym with a sauna and hot tub but I didn’t get chance to use it. Was a bit of a distance from central Reykjavík, I had a car, there was a bus stop just outside to take you to the centre but again I didn’t use it so won’t know how long the journey would take
