Good experience overall, decent location, larger clean rooms and bathrooms, good breakfast, very busy hotel. Only negative is the lack of on-site parking requiring paid street parking. Walkable access to Reykjavik shops and restaurants. I would stay there again and would recommend as a newer hotel.

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.

Centrally located, clean and overall maintained, plus friendly staff. Nice breakfast. The lift is a bit dated and temperamental. Mattress a bit on the soft side but ok. Blackout curtains could have been a bit wider. All in all highly recommended.

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.

The Hotel is charming and well located, walking distance from the city centre and with its own parking on the side of the building. The breakfast is rich and tasty, served on spacious tables and cozy chairs. The room was clean and managed to fit our family of 4, with toddler in the cot and baby in the pram. We didn’t like the shower curtain in plastic and the hotel staff doesn’t pay much attention to avoid waking up a sleeping baby, but all in all, everyone has been very kind and helpful. We recommend it!
