The room was good but from 7:30-8:00 AM every morning, the hotel recieved a delivery that was wheeled in in multiple carts right underneath our room and it was very loud. It was room 217.

Clean comfortable rooms and nice staff made the stay a good experience. Somewhat close to down town shops, though it’s not a quick 5 min walk or something like that. No restaurant for dinners either, but it seems a fair amount of hotels in Reykjavík don’t have restaurants (they do have a breakfast area). My fife star rating is just my level of contentment with my pick, and not comparing it to a NY 5 star or something like that.

Very very kind staff. Their rooms are very different and cozy from other hotels and they had nice wooden structures that reach the ceiling. They’re so romantic and perfect for a couple stay. Everything in the lounge area was also very cozy and relaxing. Def recommend if you’re staying in Reykjavík.
