The staff were excellent - all very pleasant and helpful (including a good restaurant recommendation). There was a very good selection of items at breakfast and coffee and tea all day was much appreciated. The room was very comfortable. I'm just sorry that I had to dash away without saying a final good-bye and thank you to the reception staff because my airport pickup came earlier than I expected.

There was nothing about the hotel that I didn't like. The only reason I gave a less than perfect score for location is that in winter, when everything is covered in ice, there aren't as many options that are as close to this hotel as there might be for other locations.

This is a very very nice hotel. It is not directly in the city centre, but it is within walking distance. The rooms are very big and the staff is super friendly. The hotel is really cosy, the free cake was a nice addition. The good thing about this hotel is also that you can get the dropped-off and picked-up for activities directly to the hotel.

The room is a bit old, but super functional. The only thing that I was missing was the water kettle in the room, but there is cake and free hot water, tea and coffee in the main area.

Our room was a two level loft arrangement with two beds down and three beds upstairs with plenty of room for my family of four. Both the bathroom and sleeping areas were clean and tidy. The beds and bedding were very clean and comfortable. The hotel offers a complimentary coffee machine in the breakfast area and served cake in the evening. The breakfast served was very good and had a decent selection. They have a recreation room with ping pong, fuzz ball, axe throwing and other games to play. The hotel has its own parking lot of you are coming by car.

The hot water has a sulfur smell. Other than that our stay was excellent.

We stayed in quad room on 3rd level. Very good location, great staff. We were given an early check in which helped start our iceland vacation on a great start. We were able to rest, freshen up and get out sooner in the city after our overnight flight. Breakfast was very nice. They have nice lobby area snd a game reading area too, lovely stay . Will surely stay here next time we are in Rekjevik!

Kids mentioned that upper level room was bit stuffy. All beds were comfortable but it is possible the room heat rises up and windows were cracked open in lower level. Someone had mentioned that take a small fan to get air moving but it would be nice if hotel provided fan to move the air

Close walking distance to centre but in a quiet area. A pub (brewery), restaurants and some shops beside it too. The whole of Reykjavik felt safe to be fair but I was happy out on my own wondering around the local area. Staff are so helpful and friendly, they can’t do enough for guests. Gave great advice on trips and things to do, places to eat and how to get around. Tea and coffee with homemade cakes every afternoon for anyone who wants them. We went down one eve late to watch fireworks and the manager and owner brought out cakes, fruit and chat away about the little Christmas celebrations. Very relaxed atmosphere. Just a very home like feel. The whole place is so clean. Rooms are small but spotless and so warm, can’t fault anything.

We only stayed here for a day, but the hotel was quite nice. The rooms were clean and spacious enough. The beds were comfortable. The staff were very friendly and even gave us suggestions on what to do around the city in one day and suggestions for best place to eat local food and go shopping! Check-in and check-out was easy

The bathroom was a tad bit small. Not a major issue but we did get a lot of Sulphur smell in the shower. Not sure if anything can be done about it or if it was just specific to our room but I just wanted to flag that :)

Although the building isn’t new and chic, the facilities are excellent. The location is great as about 12min walk to the downtown. Ample parking. The check in and check out process was simple and smooth. The room was clean. We had a room with loft so it was spacious. Bathroom was basic but the towels were clean and enough. The tv had a lot of options and the bed was comfortable too. The breakfast had all the necessary options, i.e types of breads, jams, granola, yogurt, juices, tea coffee, cheese etc. overall great experience!

The bathroom had a little smell.

The hotel is in a very good place, it's quiet and 15 mins walk from the centre. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Maybe you can see that some of the furniture is a bit outdated but it really does not count because the cleanliness of the whole hotel is and our room is unsurpassedly perfect <3 Highfive to the staff! The breakfast was really good all the time and the free cake at 5pm was a very nice touch! We can only recommend this hotel. Definitely will be back hopefully soon. Ps.: Ask about the origin of the hotel, it's interesting!

It was cosy and reasonably priced for Reykjavik. Free parking and the short walk to city centre made it very convenient. Family room was a good layout with loft room. Breakfast was simple but good. Tea and coffee facilities in the lobby all day was a nice touch, as is the complimentary cake in the evenings. Games room was great for the kids 😊

Soundproofing could have been better, constant noise from people in neighbouring rooms. Bathroom could do with an update.
