Fosshotel Reykjavik
Our room had a nice view. It was spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable. Breakfast was pretty much the same every day, but plenty of selection. Matty at the front desk was very polite and friendly. Will definitely be staying there again when I return to Iceland with my girls.

Grandi by Center Hotels
Staff was very friendly and knowledgable, hotel amenities were fantastic, and the Spa was definitely worth checking out for some relaxation while staying at their hotel. Rooms were bigger than normal which I was very impressed! Overall, I would come back to this hotel for another stay while visiting ...
