Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The location was perfect, close to the city center but tucked away from noisy areas. The rooms were comfortable and clean, and the staff was incredibly helpful. However, the dining options were limited. Overall, a great value for money.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The room had a sink and a comfy bed, but no private bathroom, which was a downside. The service, however, was top-notch with staff offering great food recommendations and helping with various needs. The location was excellent, right in the center city. The dining options were limited, especially considering the lack of a full bathroom in the room, making it a bit inconvenient. The price seemed fair for what was offered overall.
The hotel is a hidden gem tucked away from the noisy areas in the heart of the city. The rooms are comfortable with all the amenities one needs, although a private bathroom would have been perfect. The service was top-notch, with excellent food recommendations and even assistance with postcards. However, the dining options were a bit limited, but the home-made bread was a nice touch. The location is very convenient, being close to the city center yet offering a quiet retreat. Overall, a good value for money stay with minor room for improvement.
The hotel is perfectly located right across the iconic church Hallgrimskirkja and in the heart of the city center. The rooms offer a cozy stay, but the shared bathrooms could use some additional maintenance. The service was exceptional with helpful staff. The dining experience provided tasty homemade bread. Overall, a good value for the price.
The hotel is conveniently located near the town center and close to the BSI bus terminal, making it easy to explore Reykjavik. The dining options include homemade bread but may not offer an extensive selection. The pricing is considered reasonable for the value provided.
My stay at this hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was fantastic, close to the city center and within walking distance of shops and restaurants, but the lack of a private bathroom was a downside. The stable WiFi and included breakfast were definite perks, though.
