"Loved the pods, my partner and i both felt like we had plenty of space, the bed was SO comfortable and it was a great place to wind down in after a full day of walking around reykjavík. we booked with breakfast which consisted of an apple, skyr, pastry, granola, marmalade and a juice. it was delicious and filling and came perfectly packed in a reusable to go bag. We will absolutely be staying here again on our next trip!"

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel. We arrived on a Saturday and were pleasantly surprised that our room was ready a couple of hours before check-in, which was greatly appreciated after traveling. We stayed in Room 808 (an executive room,) which was clean, comfortable, and appeared to have been refreshed recently. One unique feature was the shared balcony on the 8th floor, where we were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights one evening. Access is through a door outside the guest rooms rather than directly from the room itself, which we actually preferred. Some rooms do have direct balcony access, so if you use the shared space, just be mindful of noise and avoid standing directly in front of other guests' doors. The breakfast was quite good. There was a nice selection of coffee and tea, eggs, bacon, sausage, skyr, fresh fruit, assorted breads, and pastries, which gave us plenty of options before heading out for the day. The only issue we encountered was that a couple of days into our stay I noticed I had been charged the full cost of the room on my credit card even though I had prepaid through Hotels.com. When I mentioned it at the front desk, the staff quickly looked into it and processed a refund right away. Overall, we had a very pleasant stay. The room was clean, the staff was helpful, the breakfast was good, and the early check-in was a wonderful surprise. I'd happily stay here again and would recommend it to others visiting Iceland."

Frequently asked questions

What other neighbourhoods are similar to Bakkar?

While Bakkar offers a unique blend of convenience and access to natural beauty, the most similar neighborhoods in the Capital Region in terms of offering a mix of residential comfort and accessibility are Garðabær and Kópavogur.

Garðabær is an excellent option for families and those who appreciate a balance of suburban tranquility with easy access to amenities. It's known for its open green spaces, including the beautiful Heiðmörk nature reserve on its eastern border, which provides extensive hiking and biking trails. The area also features modern shopping centers and local recreational facilities, making it a comfortable base for a relaxed stay.

Kópavogur, directly bordering Reykjavík to the south, is ideal for travelers who want to be close to the city's offerings without being in the busiest downtown areas. It boasts the largest shopping mall in Iceland, Smáralind, and the Gerðarsafn Kópavogur Art Museum, offering cultural experiences.

When is the best time to go to Bakkar?

The best time to go to Bakkar is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is mildest and daylight hours are longest.

You'll experience nearly 24 hours of daylight in June, gradually decreasing through August, which allows for extended sightseeing and activities.

Should you be interested in seeing the Northern Lights, the shoulder seasons of September to October and March to April offer a good balance. While the weather is cooler and daylight hours are shorter, the darker nights increase your chances of witnessing this natural phenomenon, especially appealing to solo travelers interested in photography or unique natural experiences.
