There was a private party hosted near the bar section of the lobby. They were playing extremely loud and inappropriate music. The hotel should have asked them to be courteous of other guests.

FANTASTIC PLACE

We stayed 10 days here. The staff was INCREDIBLE! Friendly...accommodating.. Clean. Macarons in our room at check in.. Such a nice surprise. Breakfast was the same every day..got a bit tired of scrambled eggs..lol. Could use a waffles station. Bar and happy hour offered. Warm soaking pool available.. Message table available for a fee. Taxi services available from the front desk. This hotel is only a 2 minute walk from the #3 bus stop. Very conveniently located. I would definitely stay here again!

Went for Pride week and our 3 year anniversary. Hotel was clean, the staff was so incredibly friendly, loved the free breakfast options and the jr suite. Would highly recommend anyone coming to Reykjavik to stay at this property! It is conveniently located which made walking around the area so easy. The hot tub in the spa was relaxing. Would love to come back again!

Property was right off the main street. Close to most venues, easy walking distance to restaurants and attractions. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Rooms were much bigger than Center Hotel across from Harpa. Breakfest had many options and was very good. No complaints about our stay.

Great place close to restaurants, shops, and attra

Loved the hotel and some of the workers there, especially the two gentlemen at the front desk. There were super attentive and would go out of their way to ensure we had what we needed. We were also booked an amazing taxi back to the airport for 8 people, plus bags and carry on bags for a flat rate. Our stay was for 9 nights!

I was initially very concerned from all the bad reviews but feel like I got lucky. My double standard room had a big window facing the sunset, which made it feel airy and spacious. I paid for the spa use which was worth it and restorative. Breakfast was plentiful and quality, even for those with dietary restrictions. Staff was always friendly and accommodating. Generally a quiet and restful vibe here. Perfect location. Highly recommend.

Great Location

Hotel is in a great location downtown, so easy to get around town. They secured our bags on arrival, so that we could visit the city. The room was ready early, so check in was great. Room was clean and quiet. Breakfast was included and very good. They also offer a free drink. We stayed there both pre and post cruise. I would stay there again, if I ever return.

Breakfast was quite good. Recommend asking for a room not facing the street as think that would be quieter, and there is no biew advantage to street side. Our room faced the street and there was some construction and party noise until quite late each day (construction until just after 9pm and then party noise until 10 or so).
