The location was extremely walkable and the rooms feel comfortable and luxury. The vibe feels very social with the cafe/bakery right inside the same entrance. The attached restaurant was also funky. Great hotel - I definitely recommend for anyone - especially a solo traveller.

We’ve stayed at hotel Exeter about five time, it is our favorite hotel in Reykjavik. We stay our first and last night here and they always thank us for returning and actually recognize us. We never ask but usually end up with an upgrade. The staff is wonderful.
