Our check in at reception was not welcoming which set the tone of our one night stay. Check in is where first impressions are made. Even though the Room was great, location excellent, check out was pleasant, and breakfast was great, I would think twice before booking here again.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Alda Hotel Reykjavík. The location is perfect—right in the center of the city, making it easy to walk everywhere. We also loved having a Starbucks and a restaurant right in the lobby, which made mornings and quick meals super convenient. The lobby itself is clean, modern, and welcoming. Our room was simple, minimalistic, and just the right size for our family. It wasn’t overly large or luxurious, but it was exactly what we needed since we spent most of our days exploring the city. One detail I especially appreciated was their L’Occitane amenities. It’s such a nice touch and made the stay feel a bit more elevated. We also found it incredibly helpful that the hotel provides a cellphone for guests to use during their stay. Since there’s no telephone in the room, having a phone available for exploring the city was convenient and saved us from relying on our own devices. The room and facilities were consistently clean and well‑maintained. The front desk staff was excellent—friendly, approachable, and very responsive. Before our arrival, I had sent several messages with questions, and they always replied promptly. I also arranged a surprise for my husband’s birthday, and the staff coordinated everything beautifully. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend Alda Hotel Reykjavík to anyone looking for a comfortable and centrally located place to stay in the city.

FAB U LOUS hotel. Staff super friendly and helpful. Great location for shops, bars and restaurants. Breakfast was great quality but did get a bit 'samey'. A bit of rotation on the offerings would have been nice but again, super high quality food. The whole venue was spotlessly clean. Sauna and hot tub a nice addition. Shame about Starbucks

Very good, very pleased with our 3 night stay. Location brilliant for restaurants cafes, bars and shops. Very close to the bus pick up and drop off (9). Staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was well large enough for the 3 of us. Wide choice of food for breakfast. Being critical, the shower was difficult to get the setting just right. It was slow to respond so one got it too hot or too cold. Although the breakfast was excellent it was identical each morning. Just a few changes each day would have been good ie swap the strawberry skye to another flavour or different cheeses. Well pleased thank you

The Alda Hotel is situated in the heart of old Reykjavic and many sites are within easy walking distance. It is also close to a pick up point used by tour companies. The staff were very friendly and helpful. My only negative (and its a minor point) was that I found the lighting in the room too dark. would happily stay there again
