Perfect place to stay in Reykjavik. Walking distance to the bus terminal and lots of fabulous restaurants and shops. Also a short walking distance to a nice path along the water. Lovely view of the Hallgrimskirkja church! The room was stylish and comfortable and the lounge area was very nice with complimentary coffee and water, and a small bar. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, happy to store luggage and offer suggestions for dining and excursions. Highly recommend!!!

Nice property and management. Staff assisted with luggage, as there is not an elevator. Breakfast was varied and with healthy options. Bedding fresh and comfortable. Room overlooked the church which was an awesome sight.

The rooms are very quaint. Loved that it was walkable from everything. If you want quiet, don’t stay here because of the church bells that go off quite often. Didn’t like that our room could be completely dark. There was quite a bit of light still coming through even with the shade closed. Staff was friendly.

Great location - easy to walk around the city. The rooms are very below average. The water swells like sulfur/sewage and is absolutely disgusting. The rooms are very small. Overall wouldn’t stay again, but you can’t beat the location.

We enjoyed the property! The location is absolutely perfect! There isn't an elevator, so be aware of that! It also would have been nice to have a fan for summer in the top rooms where the sun bakes the room! Otherwise we enjoyed our stay here. It was quiet and in the perfect location!

This hotel had a good view. The room was tiny. The shower smelled like sulfur. The breakfast was cold cuts. I feel this hotel is overpriced just for the view. It needs a fresh coat of paint. Save your money and stay somewhere else.

Amazing location overlooking Hallgrimskirkja. Surprisingly quiet for how central the location is. There’s also free parking across the road at Hallgrimskirkja. Rooms are super dated and don’t look as cute as the photos. We had our own non-shared bathroom and it was a tiny wetroom style bathroom. The place had a hostel vibe. Still, it was clean, quiet and affordable so I can’t really complain.
