Excellent service and rooms
We had a wonderful stay in the heart of Reykjavik. The hotel provided excellent service and comfortably appointed rooms. We would especially like to extend our sincere thanks to Kamil at the front desk for his warm hospitality and outstanding assistance throughout our stay.

This is a nice hotel in a quiet location. The closest bus stop (which tours and airport shuttles use for pick up and drop off) is about 4 blocks away.
It seems to be used for a lot of tour groups who ascend on the breakfast buffet like a bunch of vultures. If you are unfortunate enough to arrive after them, there is little left for you.

Our room was sweltering hot. If we opened the windows the street mouse from the bars was too much.

Good location
Hotel was good and in good location. No change of towels and bed every day. Breakfast could be better, no very fresh at the end of service, no eggs to choose just one and over cooked.

There are many options in Reykjavik and this is a definite pass. It is noisiest hotel I have stayed in. When I mentioned something to the desk, their response was. “It is in the city.” I have stayed hotels in NYC, London, Paris, etc that were in the middle of the city and they were quiet compared to this place. Never again!!

Very good location, walking distance to all atractions and restaurants. Amazing breakfast and comfortable rooms :) The only disappointment is that there is no free parking as advertised, but we found a solution in a cheap parking nearby
