It’s a beautiful hotel. The art around the walls is great and there is a wonderful downstairs library area with comfy sofas. But the breakfast is the real standout. The best breakfast from our trip to Iceland! Delicious salmon and eggs amongst many other things. Note - we arrived on a Sunday and the bar and restaurant were closed and we weren’t aware of that in advance.

This is a gem of a hotel, which had been recommended by an Iceland native now living in the US. We loved the quiet neighborhood location just a few blocks from everything. It really is just chock full of fabulous art. The bar was cozy and beautiful and had live jazz the evening we were there. Delicious breakfast and super nice front desk staff. We had a junior suite and it was spacious and great. Would definitely recommend.

I stayed at the Hotel Holt twice, at the beginning and end of my Iceland trip. I enjoyed the balcony room overlooking the city. Great breakfast as well. They were very accommodating about storing my luggage and offering an earlier check-in on the day I arrived. Gabriella at the front desk was wonderful and so personable both times. She remembered me when I arrived for my second stay, which made the place feel like home.

Gabriella at the front desk was so sweet from the moment we walked in. She took the time to point out her favourite stops in Reykjavik, as well helped us locate some of the shops we’ve seen online. The room was a bit tighter than we expected, however, it was really clean. The location was great walking distance to the downtown core. Breakfast was amazing! Lots of variety - scrambled and boiled eggs, sausage, hashbrowns, toast, yogurt and coffee / juice.
