Dorm room like

Room was very small. Almost dorm room like. Pillows were terrible and lumpy. Narrow stairs to walk up to get to rooms. Nice location though.

We did enjoy dinner at a place in walking distance of the hotel and it was delicious. That was the only place that was open at the time. They didn't have a lift in the hotel, so we had to carry our luggage up a couple of sets of stairs which was kind of annoying, but we made it work. The room was spacious and worked out for what we needed. Breakfast wasn't an option for us since didn't pre-select it when we booked the room, so that was a bummer. No one wanted to make the exception to it and offer it. So we just figured something out the next morning. We did come on a day when it was raining and gloomy, so it might have been different if the weather was nicer.

The booking was not as requested. They had no breakfast included. We had to pay extra. Our room was not as requested. Our booking was for two beds. When asked for a new room with this accomodation the staff person became very flustered. The hotel lost power at breakfast. The staff was unaware and had to be summoned to fix. Food ran out at breakfast. Staff seemed bothered by replenishing.

Basic hotel.

This is what you would expect for a budget level hotel in the US. I'm not sure if there is such a thing in Iceland. The hotel is clean and rooms are comfortable. Showers are very small pre-fab units. Breakfast is very basic. Don't expect more than some basic fruit, cereal, toast, boiled eggs etc. Management seemed to have staffing issues. Breakfast could be overrun easily with little staff to help. There was not a bar.

NO HOT WATER We arrived the hotel soaking wet and freezing, and all we wanted to do was to take a hot shower, but surprisingly there was no hot water at all. There was no one at the reception desk. We tried calling the number they gave us for issues, but no one ever picked up. This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. DO NOT STAY HERE.

Kirkjufell hotel is a simple, unpretentious place. The price however was higher than a 4 star hotel in Reykjavik. The breakfast was simple too: bread, crackers, cereal, hard boiled egg, some jam, tea and coffee. No skyr! The shower leaked outside of the enclosure. In summary: way too expensive for what you get.

10min to Kirkjufell

If you’re looking for a basic room, shower and convenient to Kirkjufell this works. About a 10 min drive to the lot and has views of the mountain from our room. Very quiet and basic accommodation.
