Nice hotel if you don't want to spend lots!
Some nice touches in the hotel (coffee machine with biscuits & social areas) Good breakfast but limited seating area. Good size room, very comfy bed! Some bathrooms would benefit from some upgrade. Location wise, not too much of a walk into the centre and parking was on the street.

We were not aware that the hotel had shared bathing facilities. We had trouble getting in because we couldn't find the email with the instructions among all the other emails that had piled up during our travels.

Our stay was OK. Be aware that if you have a car there is limited parking without signs that threaten be towed away. The lack of employees that can help with problems was inconvenient.

I loved the industrial vibe of this property. It was about a 25-30min walk in to the centre of Reykjavik which was an easy walk but I should have looked in to closer locations. The room had a slightly funny smell but was very quiet and comfortable. And the reception was very responsive when I asked for a hairdryer - they had staff drop one off within 30mins

Staff wasn't so kind. Because this is a self check-in hotel, communication, if you need assistance, is poor. Breakfast was good. Bed was comfortable. There isn't elevator so take this on mind if you are traveling alone and has heavy luggage

Just okay.
During our stay, we found the accommodations to be uninspiring. The breakfast was lacking, and we were surprised to find that the room we booked did not have its own bathroom as we had thought. The check-in process was confusing, and the property itself was dark and dreary. Additionally, the free parking was extremely limited with only a few available slots in front of the hotel. Many of the parking spots around the property belong to other businesses, so it's important to be cautious. While the place wasn't terrible, it wasn't our favorite among the places we've stayed at in Iceland.

I have to say I was a little skeptical at first based on some of the negative reviews, but we were very pleasantly surprised by & pleased with the Brim Hotel! The check-in process was seamless with all the details provided to us via email. Our room was very spacious & comfortable—not to mention the high quality Solely organic shampoo, conditioner, & shower gel that I LOVED! The complimentary tea & coffee machine on the second floor was a very nice amenity, & we loved the breakfast! The croissants were the best I’ve had in a very long time! Additionally, the virtual concierge was extremely accommodating & granted us a late check out of 1pm for FREE! I challenge anyone to find all of these features at a remotely comparable price in Reykjavik! Thank you for a high quality stay at an affordable price!

The staff was cold and unaccommodating. Lights were broken in room and room was different from website photos. If staying here again, I’d opt for the cheapest option or pay more to stay in a more hotel like place.

I did not stay here because of poor communication by Expedia and the hotel, but i was still charged for the visit. If Expedia is going to make it a point to tell customers not to give out any credit card info nor use any other portal for payment other than Expedia, then they need to take responsibility for when a hotel tries to get its customers to do just that. Hotel sent me a message saying they couldnt charge my card and i needed to pay through a weblink they provided and if i didnt do that within 24hrs the booking would be canceled. I refused to use the weblink but was unable to cancel this booking. The hotel never responded to my replies and Expedia was unable to assist, insisting that the reservation was non refundable. I have screen shots of the message from the hotel. Totally unacceptable.

Quaint hotel, you have to wait for a code to enter the main door and a code to a lockbox to get the room key there is no hotel staff, rooms are basic but the bed was super comfy there’s no tv in the room which is odd for a hotel but I guess I wouldn’t understand anything if there was one lol.. there’s a lovely coffee bar on the 2nd floor with teas and cookies the 3rd floor had a chess table and the 1st had endless books ro read.the breakfast was perfect a mix of juices breads eggs pancakes crepes and cheeses and the best part was free parking. Overall a little pricy for what you get but it’s Iceland everything is expensive.

First off, this property is not really a hotel. It is more like a HOSTEL with shared kitchen, shared toilets, and shared shower stalls. There is NOBODY available on-site if you had a housekeeping related question or situation, if you needed any concierge service, if the toilet was stinking and needed housekeeping attention, if you had an issue with your assigned room, if the bulb was out, if the coffee machine wasn't working, etc. All you have is a number to call, which noone ever picks up. Only a ghost sends a text message and you’re at the mercy of how efficiently a text msg resolves your need. The place is OLD and DARK... see the pictures online. It makes the place feel gloomy. DO NOT STAY HERE.
