It is a simple hotel with everything that you need fos a pleasant stay. Bed, pillows and towels smells clean and were so confortable. It has fridge and kettle as well as shampoo, conditioner and boand hand soap. Breakfast in simple but with a good variety, like at home. Its is in the main area. 5 ' from bus stop #6 (airport and excursion pick up and drop off) 10' walking from Harbour and Harpa. Is an old fasion hotel but still 10/10. Staff very friendly.

Best of 6 hotels we’ve stayed at in Reykjavik

The staff was very helpful, especially when we needed them to contact a restaurant and the FlyBus service. The room was spacious and had a nice sitting area. The location was perfect. No complaints whatsoever! Over the last 10 years we have stayed in at least 6 different hotels in Reykjavik. This is our new favorite!

Hotel staffs are nice enough to have us check in early due to our red light flight. The breakfast has nice variety. Room is clean but tiny and it has everything you needed. The location is great and walk in distance to most of attractions.
