Good location

Our 3 night stay formed the completion of our 18 day journey around Iceland. The hotel is in a great location for visiting the Downtown area. Accommodation could be improved somewhat. The bed was rock hard, however a mattress topper was available on request. The room had minimal ventilation with only a tiny high window in the corner of the room. The room was quite warm to the point of uncomfortable. Breakfast I would rate as very good as far as options go, with the usual hot and cold offerings. However as the hotel is used as a stopover for large tour groups the breakfast room is quite noisy, especially with the occasional inconsiderate guests insisting on having their phone videos playing at high volume. Uggh!! If you are looking at spending a few days in Reykjavik I would suggest booking ahead at the SIF apartments immediately adjacent to the hotel, where our travel companions were staying, and self-cater. Very clean, modern, laundry, kitchen.

Stayed 5 nights would have left after one but had prepaid. Sound from room to room was ABSOLUTELY the worst. 4 nights of intermittent sleep.. last night one good one. Given the cost totally unacceptable. complained several times, hotel was full first three days so couldn’t change rooms then person above checked out..I thought maybe they were just noisy. NOPE next person just as noisy heavy foot fall, moving stuff etc. 12:45-1:30AM crazy noise. Would never stay here again. Also this is their “flagship” Fosshotel. Unbeliable. Everything else was actually great, staff, breakfast, housekeeping.
