The rooms were generally OK. The bathroom was an issue. The sink is so tiny, you can’t wash your hands in it without spilling water everywhere. The shower is essentially a glass telephone booth. If you drop something, you must be a contortionist to pick it up. The deluge of water that comes out rushes into the rest of the bathroom like a flood. You have to request extra towels and use the robes to mop it up. It feels like you’re in some sort of torture device and you can’t breathe while the water is coming out.

The property is clean and well-presented. It is in a very central and active location. Minimal or no view from most rooms. Our room was very challenged. The one outlet on each side of the bed was taken by the lamp, so if you need to plug anything in, you must unplug the lamp. The bathroom was bizarre and laughable. The basin portion of the sink was approximately 6 inches deep. It needed to be that small to fit in the tiny bathroom, but it was SO small that large hands just don’t fit in the sink. You end up running the water at the barest trickle so that not too much water splashes out as you rub your hands above the basin, directly beneath the faucet, which itself is three inches from the edge of the basin. Finally -the shower. Imagine a glass telephone booth. Don’t drop the soap, only a contortionist could retrieve it. There is no lip between the shower and the rest of the bathroom, so don’t you DARE open the door while showering. The drain worked alright but very slowly and there is no way it could keep up with the waterfall-worthy flow of water that quickly started to fill the little booth like some kind of Harry Houdini escape tank. Despite the best efforts at sealing the door, acre-feet of water rushes into the bathroom, requiring all your towels and even the bathrobes to mop up the mess. I am tall enough that I could dodge my head around the deluge, but my wife said it felt like a torture device and at her height she was fighting just to breathe.

Excellent property for a stay in Reykjavik. Stayed here for 3 nights after spending 11 days driving the country & living out of a camper van with two other adults. The bed was so comfy & soft & gave the rest my body needed. In those three days I was able to walk almost the entire city footprint during the day as it’s centrally located & the city is very pedestrian friendly. Good eating nearby as well, highly recommend fitting a meal in at Old Icelandic just down the road. Breakfast was delicious & had great local options. Staff were lovely & kind

This property is great and in a fantastic location. However, the street it is on doesn't allow cars! So be prepared to park on another street or in a garage and carry your luggage several blocks.

Loved the hotel. The staff was amazing, the rooms were clean and amenities were great. Perfectly located, just be mindful that your taxi will not drop you off right in front of the hotel as the location is in a pedestrian street.

Nice hotel
Hotel was clean and located in an area that was close to shops and restaurants-only thing about this is at night it is noisy since you must open windows to cool down and air room out.

Stay in a warm hotel in Iceland
Front desk service is very good, giving guide to sightseeing, responding to requests and questions efficiently. Good breakfast, clean room and environment. My husband needs to take medicines with warm water, I asked for a water container for hot water, the front desk girl offered us a bottle, very caring to help out, thank you. I also asked for wake up call for our early flight, the gentleman called at 6:00am. Everything was well done!
