“Good value in a simple hotel”

Nice breakfast buffet. Toast & jam, or rolls (very good ones!) with cold cuts. Yogurt & toppings, cold cereals, juice, coffee. Really excellent for the hotel price, much nicer than I'd have expected. Location: about 1-1/2 miles to city center, 1 block to seashore, on bus lines to city center. Good trade-off between more-central but much-higher-priced hotels. Plenty of heat and hot water. Double bed euro-style (2 singles pushed together). Walls and carpet scuffed and stained, but hey, you can't have everything in a budget hotel. Good light-proof drapes. No clock. Wireless internet (or lobby workstation) way overpriced. (I went to the youth hostel downtown to check my e-mail cheaply.) Grocery store and bank/ATM a block or 2 away. Overall, one of the best values I've had this year.

Getting around
Bus fares a bit overpriced. One or 3-day passes a better value, but must be purchased at the transfer station (drivers don't have them). All stops posted with schedules of routes serving them. Modern buses with electronic signs displaying and recorded voice announcing the next stop. Service skimpy in the evening and ends about 22:30. Weekend service skimpy; on some routes none.

“Happy”

Because of hurricane Irene, my flights got messed up, yet I got to Reykjavik, Iceland, and to the hotel easily, due to the excellent bus service from the airport. I had a nice comfortable room at Hotel Cabin on the sixth floor, overlooking the sea. The hotel staff was very kind and helpful. They confirmed my tours for me, and answered all of my questions. The breakfast was good, the dinner buffet excellent. I really enjoyed my trip, and if I go back to Iceland, I will stay at Hotel Cabin. There are many tours with Reykjavik Excursions and whale sighting companies, and because Hotel Cabin is recognized as one of the city's leading hotels, the tour companies pick up passengers from this hotel. The Fly Bus, coming from and going to the airport, also comes to this hotel. Overall, I had a good stay there!

Area recommendations
I do not know the city well enough to answer this question. But, Hotel Cabin is near the sea, where there is a walkway/bike path, and is in a nice safe neighborhood.
Must see
The Golden Circle Tours from Reykjavik Excursions is a must...taking you in 8 1/2 hours to the most well-known tourist spots -- Gullfloss, Geysir, and Pingfellir (Thingfellir) National Park (A UNESCO world heritage site). Also the whale sighting 3 hour trip is excellent.

“a good budget hotel”

We (2 persons) spent altogether 4 nights at Hotel Cabin in August 2011. In between the different nights, we were travelling. The hotel staff was extremely friendly, helpful and well-informed. For every problem, they had an easy solution. On our departure day, they served breakfast at 4 am. The rooms are small, but ok. If you arrive at the hotel around noon, you have a chance to get one of the larger sea-view rooms.. If you come late, you may get one of the backside rooms, which are unreasonably small (just two beds and a bathroom, no way to unpack your stuff). Some of the rooms have minor maintenance issues, nothing too serious. The hotel is situated a 15 minutes walk away from the city center, but public busses for the lazy stop near the hotel. In the immediate neighbourhood of the hotels, you'll find all kinds of useful shops.

“Not impressed!”

If you are looking for a bargain and have no expectations this hotel is ok. However, I cannot state enough the rooms are small, very very small. If you are at all clasterphobic you will not do well here. The location is ok, but is quite a long walk to downdown and the buses are sometimes infrequent. Staff was only marginally helpful.

“A good value”

This is a European style hotel. Nothing is fancy and travelers in search of luxury surroundings will not like it. However, for someone like me looking for a relatively inexpensive, clean comfortable place to stay, it was a good choice. If I ever return to Iceland, I would stay there again.

Traveler's tip
For someone like me who is interested in history, the National Museum of Iceland has a good display on the Viking Age and the settlement exhibition in the Reyjakvik city center is also worthwhile.

“Excellent Choice for Reykjavik”

We loved the Hotel Cabin. It is simple, clean, comfortable. Breakfast is simple but filling and good. The bar is nice in the evening and staff is helpful, with more concierge service than one would expect from such an inexpensive hotel. Don't listen to comments about the walk to town- Reykjavik is a walking city, and if you don't want to walk, you are already going to the wrong city. It's about 20 min to city center, and it is a nice walk. plus there are 2 bus stops right in front of the hotel, and then it takes about 5 min to downtown. Stay here, save your money, you will need it for the food cost!

Traveler's tip
buy the discount card from the tourist information center. it gets you pretty much everywhere for free, is a free bus pass, and gets discounts at a bunch of places.
