We stayed at the Harbour Suite for 6 nights. A wonderful spacious suite with spectacular Mountain View’s. The room was spotless and the staff couldn’t do enough to make our stay fabulous. Breakfast was excellent. The heart shaped biscuits were sooo moreish! The hotel was perfectly placed to visit the many highlights within the city.

The Exeter is in a perfect location for Reykjavik: close to everything you want to do but still quiet and cozy. They were having a Christmas Market in the garden with some great handmade items. The staff was incredibly helpful, including arranging for a taxi at 4:00 am for an early morning flight. The rooms are spare but very comfortable. The only thing I wish they had was more light.

The staff was pleasant, kind, friendly and welcoming, the hotel was clean and well-kept (as was the room), the restaurant was delicious, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed my time at Exeter Hotel. I loved how walkable everything was from the hotel. Annamaria, Justina, and Nadir were particularly helpful at the front desk, always answering any questions we had with great detail and providing us great recommendations for some great food in Reykjavik. I would definitely recommend it to anyone traveling to Iceland!

The room smelled like pizza. I realize you can’t stop someone from eating pizza in the room. But do extra cleaning to get the smell out. We smelled pizza the whole time we were there thought someone hid a piece somewhere in the room. Not up to the standard we are usually met with at the Exeter. Left a little disappointed.
