It was not what we expected at all, the elevator reeked of cigarettes in our way up, the room was very dingy looking with a cracked sink in the bathroom. The tv didn’t work so we immediately had to call the front desk and Alla was very helpful and kind, she was honestly the best part. The room was freezing and everything felt sticky. The shower felt like a small prison and the curtain was very dingy. Unfortunately I will not be recommending or returning to this hotel or franchise.

Clean, comfy, great location, friendly staff
This was a wonderful hotel. It was clean and comfortable and the staff were all very helpful and kind. The breakfast is delicious (we only had it one day) and plentiful. It was a short walk from bus stop 13 where the FlyBus shuttle drops you from the airport. It was easy walking distance from Laugavegur which has tons of shopping, grocery, and dining options. You can also easily get to the harbor and see the cool sculptures. It isn’t terribly fancy but it is well-kept and has everything you might need-EXCEPT ADVIL! You can only get medicines at the pharmacy-not grocery or convenience stores or front desk. The blow drier is powerful and there is a towel warmer. There is a mini-fridge and hanging closet with several hangers. It was perfect for what we needed.

Simple. Clean. Ideal location.
The best part of the experience was that the staff were very friendly and accommodating. My room, although very outdated, was very clean. The breakfast provided was simple but satisfactory. Some things that could have been a better experience were the sound levels and the extremely strong sulfuric smell from the hot water. The building is understandably quite old, so sounds of doors slamming, neighboring rooms, and people chattering in the halls were very audible. While Iceland typically has natural spring water running in its pipes, I found Fosshotel’s hot water to be the most pungent out of all the many hotels I stayed at during my trip. The old spring mattresses could also use an update. Overall, this stay gets the job done with giving you a warm and clean place to sleep. It’s an ideal location situated walking distance from many tourist spots, grocery stores, and delicious restaurants. 3 min walk from bus stop 13 and Hlemmur station, which is helpful if you’re taking shuttles or local transportation to popular tourist areas.
