The room was very spacious and perfect setup for a family. The kitchenette was helpful to have. The shower was tiny, but typical for Iceland. Excellent location and the staff was very helpful and kind.

My family of four stayed at Hotel Fron for one night before heading back to the States after our Icelandic adventure. The two bedroom apartment with sitting area and small kitchen worked very well for us. The only reason I cannot give the hotel five stars is because of the horribly strong sulfur smell that comes from the bathroom (and the water). The odor overtakes the entire apartment after one shower.

The location is exceptional . In the middle of everything and walkable to bus stops for the airport and excursions . Couldn’t be easier . I had a single solo room and it was in the main building and quiet as I was toward the back of the building . Bed comfortable , had a refrigerator and a spacious bathroom with spacious shower w/ enclosure . The breakfast buffet was nice with a decent selection of items . Will definately stay here again when in Reykjavík.
Nice reception area with ample seating and soothing music

This hotel is on a great shopping & dining street, easy to walk to so many great spots in town! Our room/apartment was spacious, clean, and comfortable. You control your heat separately in each room which I loved! The included breakfast was the cleanest, healthiest breakfast I’ve ever been offered in a hotel! If we come back to Reyjkavic in the future I’ll be staying here again!
