The property is located next to all of the downtown shops and the famous church, so it’s in a great location. We stayed in a two bedroom suite that was brand new and really nice with great kitchen set up and very comfortable beds and bedrooms. Like most hotels in Iceland, the rooms are not air conditioned so it was very hot in early September. The hotel promptly brought us fans to help cool us off. The hotel lobby and bar are really nice and a comfortable setting for an afternoon cocktail! Parking near the hotel can be tough if you arrive later/at night. The hotel is a very close drive to Forest Lagoon Geo Thermal Baths, which is a must if you are in this area of Iceland.

Our stay had a disappointing beginning, but the hotel made a real effort to recover it. We booked a Junior Suite through Expedia, but at check-in we were placed in a one-bedroom apartment in a separate building and were told it was an upgrade. We had not been informed about the change or asked whether we wanted it. Although the apartment may technically be a higher category, for us it was not an upgrade because we specifically wanted to stay in the main hotel rather than walk outside to access the hotel facilities. Our first dinner was also very disappointing. After our first course, we waited almost an hour for the second course and eventually gave up and left the hotel to find dinner elsewhere. To her credit, the restaurant manager apologized sincerely and did not charge us for the first course. The following morning we explained everything to the front-desk manager. She handled the situation professionally. The hotel moved us into the Junior Suite we had originally booked, and invited us back for a complimentary dinner. Dinner was excellent. We appreciated the effort they made to recover our stay. Skáld is a beautiful new hotel and our Junior Suite was lovely, the view from the window is much nicer than the one-bedroom. There were clearly some service and communication issues during our visit, but I also want to recognize the staff who listened to our concerns and worked to make things right. I hope the hotel can improve these areas because the property itself is great

The hotel is new with vibrant decor and wonderful appeal. Finding the entrance to the hotel is not well marked. There is no drive up option or bell service to help you carry luggage over an unfinished road. The pillow selection also was not up to the Hilton name.

This is a brand new hotel, it’s opened within the last few weeks. It is decorated beautifully and you feel like you’re in a really fancy private library from the second you walk in. The rooms are impeccably decorated and feel really elegant. Though it’s not the vibe my wife and I usually go for, we enjoyed our time here. I want to give a special shout out to the bartender Julian. He was attentive, friendly and very helpful. Overall great stay!
