Was a seamless transition right off the airport. The staff was very accommodating and cleaned the rooms very well. Free Coffee and Tea is always a plus!

Liked: Cleanliness
The environment was very calm and clean. 90% of the staff was extremely friendly and lovely. We loved our room. It was sufficient for our needs.
I really enjoyed the aesthetic of this hotel. The lobby and accompanying coffee area and restaurant very cozy and has a diverse menu. The overall location of the hotel was also convenient to the downtown Reykjavík shops, museums, and restaurants.
It was a charming hotel, quiet with quirky, interesting interior design. And the continental breakfast was amazing! The staff were uniformly nice and helpful.

Disliked: Room comfort
Room was cute but had added decor making it smaller and challenging to move suitcases around. Toilet paper holder broken. Shower head adustable but poor choice for shower size.
Warm and friendly hotel. Wonderful staff, beautiful interior with lots of lighting and candles at night. Very warm and cozy. Rooms are the same with very comfortable beds and lovely bathroom amenities. They also have a happy hour in the evening, which is nice. The only downside is that it is in a rather ugly industrial building, but it turns out that many of the buildings in the city look just like it. Ugly on the outside but Beautiful inside. I would definitely recommend staying here. Within walking distance of rainbow Road, the church and the pedestrian area.
This hotel was a gem. It is super nice entry and open seating restuarant area. The food was delicious and the staff was nice. It was a quiet, peaceful and calm feeling. The rooms were small but very comfortable. The location is ideal - close to the main streets and areas to tour but a few blocks off so it was very quiet. The dinner menu was fantastic. Would highly recommend.
This hotel is lovely! The staff was kind and they have an amazing spread for breakfast (which is an extra fee of $32 USD/day), which includes hot foods like bacon and eggs. Also loved the eco-friendliness of the hygiene products and room servicing. Thank you for a great and welcoming stay!
Excellent Hotel very friendly , polite and accommodating we got into our room early , coffee and tea 24/7 easy access to the central city , excellent restaurants and shopping I would highly recommend this hotel
The hotel’s rooms and public space was clean and nicely appointed. Staff was great, helpful and kind. Food was delicious and enjoyed coffee/tea all day. The only negative was the area around the hotel was a little rundown and parking spaces were narrow.
