We booked the cottage during our stay and it felt so warm and cozy. There's a restaurant across the street and their food was great. We ordered the Viking dinner and liked everything especially the seafood soup. The bathroom was very clean. My friend just had a little difficulty coming up and down the stairs of the cottage because it was steep and narrow. But overall, we recommend it to other groups of friends who love to travel

The staff is friendly but the property is in disrepair and needs a serious upgrade. The room we had was cramped and we could hear every sound from the nearby rooms and outside. The breakfast buffet was very expensive and not good.

Even with construction going on, the property was quiet and nice. There isn't enough parking. I am handicap and had to walk a fair distance from parking to our room because all the up front parking was always taken. No designated handicap parking.

2nd visit was better.

This was the 2nd time we stayed at the Hotel Viking and we enjoyed this time better. Previously we were "upgraded" to the cabins on the property but felt more comfortable this time in the main building. The room was comfortable and clean. The hotel is a bit of a drive from the main downtown area of Reykjavik....but was no problem if you have a car.

For the price, a decent place to stay.

We were upgraded to one of the cottages by chance. It was cold in the room and overall it was ok. We had stayed also in the main hotel portion on our return to Reykjavik and enjoyed staying in the mail hotel more. Breakfast was typical for Icelandic hotels....but good. The room cost was reasonable, but you are located outside of the main area. This was ok for us since we were renting a car.

Friendly staff. Clean premises. Rooms are extremely small...had to play tetris to fit the suitcases in the room and close the door. No room to walk around in room. Breakfast was good but limited options.
