A great stay! Comfy beds, good staff, close to things, only drawback is you're right in the center of the nightlife area so you can expect to hear music and drunkenness and random yelling late into the evening.

The best thing about this hotel is it's location. Right in the walkable area with lots of shops and dining options. Parking was available with a couple of minutes walk. We were very happy with the accomodations.

I like that it was in the heart of the city, and the breakfast was included. I did not like that. There were two sets of stairs necessary to get to the elevator, which wasn’t clear and the hotel description. I chose the hotel because of the elevator, and it was very difficult, lifting suitcases of the steep stairs from the road to the interior of the building and then from the interior of the building to the elevator. Because there was only one small window the room was stuffy because it was warm and there was no air-conditioning. other hotels that I have stayed in in Iceland provide a fan so you can have air movement in the room.

The staff was exceptionally nice. The breakfast was in the largest breakfast rooms we've ever seen and had a wide variety. Everything was good except for the television. It failed in several ways. Also the shower water leaks under the door and gets on the floor of the bathroom . We were in room 608

This is right in the middle of the hot area of Reykavik. The only negative i guess for some is noise but I found it ended by 11pm and was quiet. Didn’t even hear my neighbors. The European style breakfast is a nice spread with different condiments and creams and breads and danish. Good selection and staffed well.

Older hotel starting to show its age. No parking and no loading/unloading area. We had to park 4-5 blocks away and there happened to be some events going on that closed off some of the streets. We didn’t want to carry all our luggage through the activities, but wanted to check in. The reception desk refused to let is check in because we didn’t have our passports on us (still in luggage in that car) even though we had Real ID licenses. This was the only hotel of 13 places we stayed in Iceland that required passports to check in. Room was basic and the bar across from our room had a live band blasting music until almost midnight.
