An amazing stay with great views of the city from the hot tub. We loved how close the home was to the city without feeling like we were in a too crowded place.

We had a wonderful stay at Tower our first night in Reykjavik! Room and amenities first class, beautiful view of the city, and of course greeted in the morning with a trolley of delicious breakfast food. Staff super friendly, and location able to walk to center of town. Highly recommend

We just had a one night stay in the way to Vic after a long day in the golden circle. Very lovely place and very comfortable. We enjoyed hanging out in the porch as the sun set and enjoying the sounds of the ocean a little bit away. Owner was very friendly and responsive and walked us though the property to familiarize us with it. Local restaurant that was recommended (can’t remember the name) had absolutely incredible lobster soup! Definitely recommend.
