Room was very clean, though small - it was difficult to manage my large suitcase in the small room, as there really wasn't floor space for it and the luggage holder was not big enough for a large suitcase. Otherwise, it was a great experience - perfect location by the harbor, nice breakfast buffet, helpful staff.

Clean, warm, comfortable room. In fact, so warm we had to open windows, even after turning the heating down. The view was superb, probably the best in Reykjavik. The only constructive criticism might be that there was nowhere to hang clothes, but there was ample space to leave both suitcases open, so not a big deal.

If only I can get a room facing the waterfront and snowy mountain, that will be excellent. The receptionist was helpful and friendly. Very efficient too! Breakfast is great. Even providing cod liver oil. Opposite Harpa bus stop 5, convenient for Flybus travel to the airport.

This hotel is excellent location to walk to everything while having a gorgeous view of the harbor! 2 min walk to bus stops 5&6 which l tours pick up at. Great breakfast! We chose sea view room. It was great! Rooms are small but that’s normal for Europe. Shower is small and oddly designed but it works fine. Our room was cool. We had an adjustable thermostat and turned heat off or low. Room had a fan also. Would absolutely stay here again. Everyone is super friendly. We loved the spa area and enjoyed a hot soak every day!

Great location, convenient for pick ups to the airport and various trips. Rooms are clean but could be bigger and have better decor. We didn’t mind as it was good value for money. Staff were really friendly and professional. We didn’t realise you needed to pay extra to use the spa when we booked, not sure it's good value for money unless you use it multiple times during your stay.

Check in was troublesome. I had requested early check in (with additional fee), but when i arrived at 10 am, it was not available. Ok understandable. Came back at 1pm still not available so I informed clerk I would wait in lobby. I was only person waiting in lobby, so I assumed when it would become available, I would be notified. But at 2 o’clock, I got up and asked her to check and lo and behold. It was already available. I was so disappointed that she didn’t let me know. Believe me hotel was not busy T the time, so I found it very disappointing.

Location great. Staff were great. Room was fine. Breakfast ok but not great. A bit noisy (alarm went off around midnight but then stopped, also lots of people talking loudly in corridors late at night.). Hot tub/spa was at extra cost - not very clear when booking.
