Little gem in the heart of Reykjavik

We loved this hotel. Gisi at the front desk was a wealth of information on things to do, places to go. The hotel was clean, quiet and had a beautiful view off the balcony. It was in the middle of everything - we walked a ton which was really easy with their location. The design was funky and cool. Would highly recommend.

Location is perfect. You can walk to everything very easily and many bus stops near by as well. Lots of shopping nearby as well as bars/ restaurants. Which does cause some noise late at night

Excellent location. Lots of things to do around. Was a little disappointed as there was a lot of noise at night (until 3am) from a nightclub across the street, but that isn't the hotel's fault. Not sure if this happens all the time. The second night was better than the first night of our visit, but was still a bit noisy.

Lovely boutique hotel. Decor is so fun! Very comfortable beds. Spacious room. Located on a loud street so you’ll likely utilize the disposable earplugs they provide :) Excellent stay.
