The property is located in an excellent area, staff was super nice specially Michelle. There should be a smart TV where apps can be used by guests, their tv had no channels other than news and we could not use any of our accounts. The lighting in the room was so dim and insufficient. The sink in the bathroom was even smaller than a new born baby sink.

Very nice overall. Great rainfall shower. Front desk staff should have been willing to notify when room was ready even if requesting early check-in. Not ok to suggest that I come back every hour to find out. I'd recommend for location and vibe.

street noise from partiers late at night quite considerable. walls are very thin, same from above - you can hear every step they take, also, when room neighbors' close their doors hard, the walls shake noticeably bathroom quite small with ridiculously small sink. great location - parking is on street, wherever you can find a spot. get a parking app so you can pay without being at the car.

Loved this hotel!

The Alda Hotel was the perfect hotel to stay in during our trip to Reykjavik. It was very clean, the bed was so comfortable, and it was located close to restaurants, the church, shopping, and most importantly Broad and Co. Would stay here agin for sure.

Hotel responded quickly when we let them know our flight was cancelled and we'd be checking in a day late. Everyone was super friendly. It's conveniently located. Room was very small, but other than that, no complaints.
