Booked this hotel at the last minute due to Airbnb not working out. Time of check in had not received a code for self check in, waited outside front of hotel for 30 mins. Area apparently noisy as earplugs are supplied for guests. Room nice, clean, three twin beds. Noticed front door area seemed to be a gathering place for locals (?). Good location. Did not see a staff member unsure if any lobby or amenities. All that being said booked last minute, it worked for one night, clean, good price great location. Would stay again.

Perfect place to book if wanting to stay near downtown. I paid $155/night, which seems cheaper than most places for a hotel this nice. Easily the best hotel during our trip, it felt like a 4-star hotel for a 2-star price considering how expensive Iceland can be during summer months. Worth it for the right price!

Fantastic location, right in the heart of downtown Reykjavik, and a short walk from almost all the main tourist spots. It was safe, and easy to access too. The room was spacious and modern, and the shower was great! The team are very responsive- and fixed an issue as soon as I raised it. Just as a note, downtown gets quite noisy at night. There are earplugs provided, though I didn’t mind the noise myself! No air-conditioning for the summer, but opening the window suited me fine (though it increases the noise).

I’ve stayed here twice on this trip, and my first stay was excellent- modern, comfortable room, perfect location. This time, I checked in late at night- the bathroom door was off its rail, so it was swinging in an unsafe way when you moved it. There’s no check-in staff available when you call from the lobby at night, so no chance to change room. Not as many plug points, either. The room was large, bed comfortable, but it was not as good as my first stay, which was a shame

This location is unbeatable!! It’s in the heart of the city, walkable to all restaurants, pubs, shops, etc.. The only thing is parking (but that’s the general problem in downtown area). You have to pay parking, and in P1 zone, where the hotel is, is pretty pricey. You can walk few blocks and park in P2. I’d def pick this hotel again. Highly recommend.

We really liked the privacy of the apartment, and the patio was nice. The bed was not very comfortable and there definitely needs to be two more pillows. It’s a small space, but it was fine for our intended use, just two nights in between flights! We really liked the bars nearby and the location was great. Just be prepared to walk a few blocks from the bus stop with your luggage! We could not find or figure out a thermostat, so being on the fifth floor was way too hot. We ended up keeping the patio door propped open while we were there to cool it down. I don’t think we would stay here again, just because the bed was uncomfortable and it was too hot. The black out blinds also don’t cover as much as we’d like, or as much as other places would offer. I will say the communication with staff was excellent, as was the ease of check-in and check out. And the location again was superb.

This was my third trip to Reykjavik and the first time staying at this hotel — and it was a great choice due to the location and walkability. I would not suggest this hotel to the novice traveler who is looking for white glove service. I highly recommend for the well-seasoned traveler who can navigate self-service check-in, access codes and not seeing a receptionist. You will receive communication from the hotel prior to your stay requesting that you check-in online and provide your identification. Once you do, you receive the access code to the building, room, and luggage storage room. Again, everything is self-service. Our check-in was slightly complicated due to the access code not working for our room, bit was easily solved by calling the hotel staff from the lobby phone — and reaching someone was not an issue even at 10:15p.m. We had an extremely spacious room with separate sitting area. There is no A/C; which is not needed due to the moderate weather. The windows open, which means you’ll also hear street noise and you may hear music from the bar nearby — which is apparently enough of an issue that you receive earplugs. However, if you travel to NYC, Washington, DC, or other major metro cities, then this will not bother you. The amenities are not high end, but we weren’t expecting that. Luggage room location was a little sketch; but also manageable. Much, much nicer than a hostel, but not the Four Seasons. Highly recommend for the experienced traveler.

The apartment was in an ideal location for the centre and was very spacious. Whilst this is a self check in hotel the comms were good via email althought i didnt raise any issues. On the negative side the locatio is very noisy with loud music plus people until early hours in morning followed by bin (garbage) collections etc starting c6am!! Whilst the hotel did its best by giving ear plugs some may not like this. The other issue is the curtains as they are too small and did not cover the windows! When it is permenantly light in May they ought to ensure this is resolve and get curtains that fit the windows
