Apartment

Laptop workspace, iron/ironing board, free WiFi, bed sheets

EIR Apartments by Heimaleiga

Downtown Reykjavik

"Room had a lovely ocean view and it was very clean. There was enough bedding if anyone wanted additional blankets but there was no need. The room temperature was comfortable and at one point, we reduced the heat and opened the windows since the apartment was nice and toasty. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking. There was tea and coffee available to us. The location was perfect to walk around town. There were cafes close by as well as eateries and shops. I highly recommend."

Aparthotel

Blue Viking Studios

Reykjanesbær

"The room size was comfortable enough for our needs, and everything was very clean. The location near the airport was really convenient, especially since we only used it for an overnight stay. However, the photos were a bit misleading—it looked like the room had an extra bed that wasn’t actually there. Overall, it worked well for a short stay, but the listing could be more accurate."

Day Dream L23 Guesthouse

"This location and amenities was ideal for our trip to be right next to Hallgrimskirkja, and bus stop #8 and within walking distance of the waterfront with Viking ship, grocery stores, and even bus stop #11 for excursions. This hotel also offers privacy of not having day to day intrusions of house keeping staff etc. I highly recommend this location for its location and value! "

" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Stay at Aurora Nooks I had a fantastic experience at Aurora Nooks. The place is peaceful, cozy, and beautifully designed, making it perfect for relaxing. Everything was very clean and well prepared, and the location adds to the charm, especially if you enjoy nature and quiet surroundings. The service was friendly and responsive, and you can really feel the care they put into making guests comfortable. I’d happily stay here again and highly recommend it. "

Top Reykjavik Hotel Reviews

ODDSSON Midtown Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I think everything was great and very welcoming. One thing that sucks is the limited parking"

Grandi by Center Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"It is in a great location with many places to eat within a 5 minute walk. The coffee shop attached to the hotel is really good too. When you check in you're given the option of daily, every other day and no cleaning of the room which is really nice. The room I had was clean, spacious and the bed was extremely comfortable. The only downside is Iceland is built for heat conservation so there's no air con nor can you open the windows in a meaningful way."

Center Hotels Arnarhvoll

8/10 Good

"We stayed at the Center Hotels Arnarhvoll for 3 nights. The location was excellent and we loved the views from the hotel, particularly from the Sky lounge on the top floor, where breakfast was served and where you can get drinks in the evenings. The hotel was good value. And the staff at the front desk were excellent -- super helpful. However, we found our room to be inconveniently small (you had to squeeze by the corner of the bed just to get around it) and the mattress was not that great. If you have no back issues, and you avoid the smallest room, I would definitely recommend it."

The Reykjavik EDITION

2/10 Terrible

"Beautiful property and an excellent restaurant, but the overall hotel experience was deeply disappointing. The staff came across as rude, unhelpful, and overly robotic rather than genuinely hospitable. For a hotel marketed as five-star luxury, the amenities and service felt surprisingly underwhelming. What truly crossed the line, however, was my mother’s experience at the spa. My mother is a very small woman and booked a massage during our stay. Despite repeatedly asking the masseur to use less pressure, he continued being excessively rough to the point that the massage left her in immense pain and covered in large bruises across her back. When we initially approached the staff about the situation, all they did was send up a tiny container of peppermint balm for her muscles, which honestly felt more like a dismissive brush-off than genuine concern for what had happened. When we approached the staff at checkout, they responded in the same robotic fashion with plastered-on smiles, rehearsed apologies, and absolutely no meaningful resolution. They refused to remove the massage from the bill and instead simply stated that they were “investigating the case.” The entire response felt cold, performative, and completely lacking in empathy or accountability. A nice restaurant and an abundance of uptight staff do not make a true five-star experience. Unfortunately, this hotel felt much closer to a three-star property, and I would NEVER choose to stay here again."
