Avery clean and comfortable apartment in the centre. Only a couple of things that lose a star, no plug in the kitchen sink or washing bowl, either are needed. However, despite the rather long climb up the stairs, it was a great apartment to cook a meal and relax after a day exploring this incredible country. We would definitely return, with a plug for the kitchen.

Such a gem located in the heart of the city. The kids especially enjoyed the Valdi’s ice cream next door every night! We enjoyed the coffee and pastries just up the block. The apartment was comfortable and had everything we needed and more. The view was spectacular. Absolutely perfect, thank you for a wonderful stay!

Perfect location for exploring Reykjavík
Fabulously located apartment in the heart of Reykjavík. The apartments are clean, well equipped and comfortable. Let down slightly by the entrance and stairwell which could benefit from a face lift.

Property was easy to find, well located on a busy and active pedestrian street, but still easy for any of our tour guides to find when they swung by to pick us up. A very bustling area, but at the same time we're 3 stories up and the space is quiet when we needed it to be.

Gem in the heart of Reyjavik.
We had a wonderful stay here at this comfortable and clean apartment situated right in the heart of Reykjavik. We stayed in the winter, but it may be very busy in warmer months. I would highly recommend this property as there is everything you need nearby, it is a lovely place, and the communication and ease of use with owners was excellent.

Some newer updates to apartment, several flights of stairs to get to it. Great location, in the heart of downtown (means also a bit late night street noise). Clean and filled with amenities. Managers were great and communication was fast and responsive to our requests. Overall a great stay!

Great central location with a nice view from the balcony, clean room and good communication. No blinds on living room windows and balcony doors which also doubles as an extra sleeping space for two people, so sleeping was challanging during the summer nights. Also, keep in mind that there is no elevator (which seems to be normal for Iceland), so we had to bring our suitcases all the way to tge 4th floor using the narrow staircase. Laundry in the basemen had a washe and dryer and was very consistent.

Excellent location and well kept apartment. The only downside I see is that the building does not have elevators. So carrying luggage upto the 4th floor could be challenging for some people.

Perfect Space!
This flat ended up being our perfect last minute home away from home! Our travel plans changed due to weather conditions and the property management team was so kind in helping us stay for an extra night! The space was cozy, comfy and right in the heart of the Reykjavík shopping, food and drink scene. We’ve already thought about planning a future trip back.
We had a balcony overlooking the main streets and a kitchen to prepare breakfast for family staying at a hotel down the street.
Great stay altogether and wonderful communication with the management!

Situated in the heart of downtown, Iðunn Apartments offers convenient walking distance access to all the area's attractions. It's an excellent choice for first-time tourists such as ourselves.The apartment itself is impeccably clean and cozy. The fully equipped kitchen of the apartment, coupled with the proximity of the Bonus grocery store, caters to those who prefer to prepare their own meals. Communication with Iðunn Apartments management is also commendable.

Great location
Great location.Sone issues getting in to the apartment (they gave us the wrong code!). Only 3 cups and 4 items of cutlery and plates for an apartment that supposedly sleeps 5 or 6. Someone turned up with extra mugs when we asked but they were dirty!
However, the apartment is comfortable and has the best locatioon

Nice apartment central location
Great spacious apartment in central location. Comfortable beds and clean fresh bedding. Towels a little worn. Kitchen had plenty of equipment and enough crockery, glassware etc. Apartment could benefit a deep clean high areas and men’s pants found in washing machine. Due to central location we did have some noise in street until late, but this could be expected.

Great updated apartment in center of city
We stayed for a week in November. We loved the location, the character of the apartment (402), and the view from the balcony and the windows! You do have to carry luggage up to the 4th floor (no elevator), but that helps work off the extra calories from the fish and chips and the next door ice cream parlor. There is a CameraPark garage (below the MicroBar) is just a few blocks down the same road and it is the cheapest place (other than finding free lots) to leave your car. People down on Laugavegur can be a bit loud Friday and Saturday nights, but it wasn't enough to affect anyone's sleeping. We would definitely stay here if we found ourselves in Reykjavik again.

Nice accommodation but way to many issues
The apartment was nice and clean. Cupboards quite worn off but that was not an issue for us. Limited quantity of tableware but we made it work. So, overall review of the apartment, quite nice.
However, there were other things that made this whole experience difficult. (I always use hotels.com because up until now I have always been satisfied with whatever acommodation I book and the whole process around it.) This time I was surprised to be contacted by a 3rd party by text message, asking for a credit card and a picture ID. I am not used to this when booking at hotels.com and if I would have been notified when booking that I would be contacted directly by the company that owns the apartments, having to send them these information, it would have been much nicer as I would have expected that. But this came to me as a surprise and it was not easy getting it confirmed that this was legit.
The worst thing though was endless problems getting in to the house. The code I got sent didn´t work and calling service number for another code took way too long. The new code we recieved did not work and overall it took a lot of time before getting in. The next day the number pad to get inside the house was dead (we contacted maintainence and waited) but because we had somewhere important to be, we ended up leaving without knowing if we could get in at all when coming back. It was not a nice feeling. I think the company was trying their best but I guess we were just unlucky.
