We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We arrived early morning and they stored our luggage and gave us directions for where we could grab something to eat and get started.We were thrilled to return to the hotel to get into our luggage and be told our room was ready early and we could check in--total life saver! It was an easy walk to restaurants and shopping, including a convenient 24 hour grocery. We were easily able to walk to all of the sights. You are practically across the street from one of the bus pick up points, stop #13. The staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was fabulous--I loved all of the fresh baked breads every day. Our room was comfortable. The only suggestion I'd have would be to include a little shelf in the shower corner for toiletries and a proper hook on the door for hanging things. And it would be nice to have some in room USB ports to charge devices--make sure to bring your adapter if you are coming from outside Europe. But these are tiny things. We would definitely come back and stay here again!

This was an excellent stay, in a great location. The room was comfortable and the breakfast had plenty of variety. The only less positive point was that the wet room style of the bathroom meant wet feet to get to the sink after showering. The location was very convenient and walkable to the old city centre. The nearby restaurant Reykjavik Kitchen served a delicious dinner.

My husband and I stayed here for 4 days as our base lodging in Reykjavik. Free parking area. Close to the center, lots of shops and restaurants. We didn't do their breakfast so can't comment on it. Room is regular with comfortable bed, no A/C but its almost winter so we just opened the windows. No fridge but we just left our wines next to the window. Bathroom was in small size especially the shower, water pressure and temperature was on point. Service was good, as well communication with front desk very helpful.

Unfortunately the sulfur smell is something the hotel cannot change as it is part of the hot water in the area as a whole, as the reservoir we get our water from is the same as the entire general area.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The location of this hotel/motel is convenient to main area of the city. I was able to walk to restaurants, shops and city landmarks. This hotel is old and lack of regular standard for the price I paid. The room is small and barely has enough closet space and only has 6 hangers. No AC or airflow from a single tiny window. The bathroom is a joke; the shower is smaller than a camper shower. When I took a shower the whole floor got wet. The 110v shaver outlet didn’t work and I had to go to reception to report this since the room phone didn’t work too. I was so glad to only stayed 2 nights.
