Reykjavik Residence Apartment Hotel

Reykjavik Residence Apartment Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"So close to downtown!!! We did park our rental 2-3 blocks away for cheaper parking but the apt itself was wonderful…..our 2 bedroom/1 bath had washer and dryer and the breakfast basket each day was lovely with fruit, meat/cheese and veggies. The fresh baked bread delivered each day was a treat as well! Highly recommended staying here!"

"The Alda Hotel was fantastic! The staff were super friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and someone came by to clean up every day. The hotel breakfast was outstanding- a great way to get ready for a day of adventure!! And the gym and sauna were very nice. We found street parking within a block of the hotel every night. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Reykjavik!!"

Fosshotel Lind

8/10 Good
"The beds were comfortable and the room was very cleaned. Easy to get a taxi and only a few minutes ride to the church and city center. Room was on the smaller side. The drains in the bathroom took a long time to drain. Notified the front desk and they told us that the drains always worked very slow. We flooded the hallway too! We would stay there again."

8/10 Good
"The room was cleaned. Housekeeping only on request. Room was very basic, nothing like the 4 stars in other countries. Staff at the front desk were helpful and friendly. Breakfast was very basic. We had dinner in the restaurant on the day we arrived. It was 9pm, kitchen was about to close and they still served us. We enjoyed the meal."
