Average at best

We really wanted to love this place but it didn’t live up to expectations unfortunately. The location, town, and view from the room were lovely. The lobby was very nice but our room was very run down and wifi was nonexistent in our room. The shower leaked and was quite mouldy. Overall this place is clean and decent enough but I would not return.

We made this reservation the day of our stay. When we arrived at the hotel, there was no one at the desk. We had to call the number provided and waited 15 minutes for someone to show up. This is a large hotel, so that was surprising. Unfortunately, we arrived right at 9pm (hoping for a bite to eat) and there are no restaurants open in the area, including the one at the hotel. (This is common in Iceland, so it was entirely our fault.) The room was very dated. This was easily my least favorite stay of our trip. I would not stay here again.

The chicken sandwiches was great at the restaurant.

They put us on the 4th floor and it was so hot that people were sitting in the halls on the floor trying to cool off from their rooms. They did end up giving us a fan and we opened the balcony, but in our opinion, our stay was unbearable. We stayed in other hotels during this heat wave and never felt this uncomfortable. The hotel downstairs was nice and cold. The lobby and restaurant views were beautiful.

Nice, clean hotel. Staff is polite. They have a restaurant on premises and have happy hour. The breakfast buffet is included and I must say pretty excellent. So many offerings!! The dining and lobby area are very modern and nicely decorated. However the rooms or at least the one I was in are very dated. And the curtains did not keep the midnight sun out. They are large and the bathrooms are huge. Best shower in Iceland!! Just be careful of the hot water! It’s boiling hot. You couldn’t ask for a better location. It’s literally a one minute walk from the food hall, shopping etc. The town church is right behind the hotel on a riverwalk. With the location’s proximity to attractions and the airport its a nice hotel and a pretty good value. It was very quiet as well.
