Excellent location – easy to find from the BSI bus terminal (just a short 12-15 minute walk). The facilities are decent and clean for a hostel. What really stood out was the staff’s responsiveness: we had a few questions before arrival and they replied to emails extremely quickly. One morning we woke up to find the power had tripped – the emergency number on the whiteboard worked perfectly, and the staff member responded politely and promptly to help us. This level of support is incredibly valuable when traveling. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and convenient base in Reykjavík!

Hostel B47 was a great place to stay. It was easy walking distance to the Main Street and the kitchen facilities are fantastic! We got woken up each night by other residents who forgot the code and got locked out but this isn’t the hostel’s fault.
