Nicer hotel with exceptional customer service. Room was very spacious and we had a two room suite with our children and ourselves. No air conditioning as we expected that in Iceland. They graciously offered us fans because it was warm for us. Beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed having breakfast each morning in the hotel.

This is a fine hotel, but we stayed during major construction and the hotel itself was hard to get around with wheelie suitcases (hallways are not smooth, there are large wooden dividers along the floor at doorways). Also the shower had the worst water pressure I have ever had in a hotel. Breakfast was awesome. We had to pay for parking which seemed a bit weird for a hotel, it is in an area with no free street parking. All in all, this was everyone's least favorite hotel on our two week trip!

This hotel was in a reasonable area, But has not been maintained. The room I was in literally had a square hole cut out of the carpet. The size of the room was adequate, The bathroom has not been updated in many years. Parking is a problem. The staff was helpful

Was a great place to stay! They let us check in early which was a life saver, and everything us was great. Only thing to keep in mind, parking can be a bit expensive to be aware of that

Quiet location but close to everything.
Good stuff: Eco-friendly: housekeeping on request only, separate bins for bottles, paper and general waste. Takes getting used to, but found that daily housekeeping is not essential. Wonderful, friendly and helpful staff. Clean room, linen and towels. Clean and tidy restaurant and food area. Breakfast has a good variety of foods, tasty breads, boiled eggs peeled and sliced, many types of fruits and nuts. Skyr exceptionally good. Good quiet location close to the water, walking distance to public transit, shopping, restaurants and most museums. Grocery store behind the hotel. Not so good: No hooks in bathroom to hang towels/clothes, shelf over the small sink too low, so a challenge to avoid hitting forehead. Shower stall small, with not bars or rails to hold onto. Could be dangerous as the wraparound shower curtain would not stop a fall. In spite of the bathroom, we had a wonderful stay at this property. A bit pricey, but everything is somewhat expensive in this mesmerizing country.

We stayed 5 nights in June. The front desk staff were really helpful and very friendly. Check in/out was easy. We didn’t opt for breakfast at the property but heard good reviews from other guests. The bar/coffee at the front desk was very convenient. 10 minute walk to bus stop 12, the departure point for tours and 2 blocks from main shopping area. Easy to walk to most attractions and restaurants. The only negative was with the shower. The surface of the drain pan was very slippery.
