    convenient airport transfer
    value stay

    This place was a solid choice for a flying visit in Reykjavik with fantastic value. The airport transfer was super convenient and made everything easy. Just a heads-up, the water has a strong smell, so let it run for a bit before showering.

    Can just recommend for a momentary visit

    Comfortable beds, friendly staff, the breakfast variety was outstanding with plenty of delicious options to start the day, and the lift made it easy to access our room while visiting the main transport hub just a short walk away.

    Couldn't find any faults at all.

    great location
    helpful staff
    loud corridors
    poor soundproofing

    Great location and friendly staff!

    My stay was made enjoyable due to the excellent location, just a short walk from Reykjavik's main attractions, and the staff's willingness to assist with all our needs. The breakfast offered a delightful variety of items, and the option to create lunch packs was a unique touch that was super convenient for our day trips. One area that could be improved is the soundproofing. I could hear conversations in the hallway, which interrupted my sleep on occasion.

    location convenience
    breakfast variety

    Charming, charming, charming.

    I loved the cozy atmosphere and the fantastic location that put me steps away from the heart of the city! The breakfast spread was seriously drool-worthy, with fresh pastries and hearty options to fuel my adventures each day. What really stood out was the staff-every interaction felt personalized, especially when they helped me navigate tour bookings during a stormy chaos!

    Great location with minor drawbacks

    We had a pleasant stay during our trip! The location is fantastic, close to shops and sights. The room was tidy, but quite small. Enjoyed a delicious breakfast each morning—plenty of choices. Tip, check the prices in the lobby shop to avoid surprises.

    early check-in
    quiet location
    additional fees

    good stay with some improvements needed

    The early check-in option was a great relief after our early arrival. The location was quiet, making it a nice escape from the busier areas.

    While the early check-in was appreciated, the fee felt slightly unnecessary.
