We really enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend.

Front desk staff were always available and willing to help. We were able to check in early for an extra $30 fee which was much appreciated after an overnight flight. The bar area was welcoming with good drinks. We did order some food but could not recommend the restaurant. Location is very convenient to two bus stops for easy pick up for tours.

Very nice and clean hotel located very close to many shops and dining in Reykjavik. Standard room was quite spacious with a large bed (seemed larger than other hotels we stayed in Iceland). Staff was friendly, prompt, and helpful. Breakfast was ok to us, I saw many reviews hyping the breakfast but I didn't find it as spectacular as some other hotels I've stayed in (not many hot dishes, rather a wide variety of baked goods). If the breakfast is included in your rate, definitely go. Otherwise I wouldn't pay extra for breakfast, and instead go to one of the many cafes nearby. There is no on-site parking, but we were able to find plenty of street parking nearby. Specifically, look to park in the areas marked "P2" on the streets south of the hotel, as there is no max hours limit and parking is free between 9pm to 9am.

Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. It is probably the most convenient hotel to stay at for the Reykjavík Marathon as it located right by the finish area and a short walk to the starting area. If you’re considering running in 2026 make your reservation there early. Restaurants and shops are all just a short walk from the property. There’s no parking on the premises but the staff will help you figure out what app to use to easily use the public parking that is nearby.

Perfect hotel, location & restaurant

I truly loved this hotel and wished I could have stayed longer. It was in a perfect location with easy walking distance to everything with beautiful parks and lake just metres away with many beautiful birds. The service was first class and the restaurant served delicious food. One of the best breakfasts I have ever seen. My bed was so comfy, I felt like I was sleeping on a cloud. Highly recommended.

I didn't like the fact that there was no parking. After I checked in, I asked where can we park, the woman at the desk said, park in areas on the street that says P2. My husband and I drove around for an hour before we could find a parking spot, which was 15mins walk from the hotel. After we parked and got back to the hotel?, she told us that there are 3 parking garages, which is like $50 us dollars a day. Other than that, the hotel is beautiful, clean, modern and close to a lot of restaurants and attractions. Just budget for parking, if you rent a car.
