This hotel is about a 10 minute walk from the centre of Reykjavík and all the shops and restaurants. Easy to find free, on-street parking beside the hotel. Room was spacious and comfortable. Beds were comfy. Breakfast was excellent continental breakfast with all the usual things on offer. Well stocked Bonus supermarket about 7 mins away and is a real help for quality produce and snacks if you are visiting on a budget as eating out is very expensive. So much to do in Reykjavík. We only stayed 2 nights but could easily have stayed for a few more days. I would definitely book here again on my next visit.

The hotel needs to be renovated. Rooms were outdated and the hotel feels old. Bed was comfortable, staff was friendly and helpful and there is shopping and restaurants within walking distance. We were not able to take advantage of the complimentary breakfast because we had an early check-out, and the hotel requires more than 18 hour notice to order a takeaway breakfast, which we weren't able to get because we checked in after the deadline. Overall, not a great experience, but adequate.

It was a good choice. The breakfast was varied and good, but you do have to pay for it. The room had all the necessary amenities, but a bit on the warm side. It was close to everything without being too close to the noise.
