Top National Museum of Iceland Hotel Reviews

Hotel Reykjavik Saga

10/10 Excellent

"Restaurant at property had great food and fabulous desserts. Hotel room very clean and modern furnishings. Bed very comfortable and nice shower controls. We really liked it."

Reykjavik Marina - Berjaya Iceland Hotels

8/10 Good

"The proximity to downtown was great. The room although getting tired looking was clean. We found the staff both at check in and check out extremely accommodating. The one issue I had was breakfast was definitely not worth the price. The choice and quality was good but it was not worth 100.00 Canadian for two!"

Fosshotel Reykjavik

8/10 Good

"The furniture is outdated and room is very basic and relatively just call 3-3.5 stars hotel.However, location is convenient next to bus #12 which it helps for any tours you sign up."

Miðgarður by Center Hotels

8/10 Good

"The hotel, staff and breakfast were great but parking is a premium so make sure you download the Parka App before arriving so that you can easily pay for on-street parking"

CityHub Reykjavik

8/10 Good

"We liked the self service and close proximity to everything"

KEX Hotel and Hostel Reykjavik

10/10 Excellent

"We got an upgrade to a room with a private bathroom, I’m thankful for that! The room was clean and ready upon check-in. And the staff members were helpful."

Old Town Reykjavik

8/10 Good

"no elevator, no staff, you get the code for entry via email. it worked well no issues at all, the beds were sooooo comfortable, super close to the bus stop, close walk to rainbow street, lots of restaurants within a stones throw. i'd stay again."

Radisson Blu 1919 Hotel, Reykjavik

8/10 Good

"Great hotel. Two things prevented me from giving 5 stars. The shower floods the bathroom. Luckily we showered in the morning and left for our excursions and the bathroom was cleaned by the time we got back. But we had to step in puddles and throw down towels while we got ready. Serious design flaw. The second was the noise on the street. I understand the hotel can’t control this and we should expect a little bit of this when booking a hotel in the middle of the city. But maybe some better sound proofing on the windows would help. Or even a fan in the room to drown out the sounds outside. We couldn’t fall asleep until after 3 am and I’m not a light sleeper."

The Reykjavik EDITION

8/10 Good

"Lovely staff, wonderful breakfast, nice hotel and great location. I thought they had a spa, but their spa was actually a lounge … no sauna or soaking….. otherwise perfect."
