Top Reykjavík Cathedral Hotel Reviews

Fosshotel Reykjavik

8/10 Good

"Clean room, good service."

Alda Hotel Reykjavik

10/10 Excellent

"Location was convenient, staff was friendly and helpful, breakfast buffet was plentiful with delicious options, and we even enjoyed the hot tub and sauna. Great place to stay!"

Reykjavik Marina - Berjaya Iceland Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"Nice room - clean functional, adequate size. Very stylish and expansive series of cozy settings in the ground-floor lobby area (library, cinema, lounge, bar, etc.) that we enjoyed hanging out in. Quite walkable location. No hotel parking, but on-street parking was easy with parking app."

Grandi by Center Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were always on hand and very helpful, nothing was too much trouble. The room was excellent, pristine. Would highly recommend this hotel."

Center Hotels Plaza

10/10 Excellent

"Location location Location. You couldn't ask for a better location than this hotel. Right in the heart of everything. Shopping, restaurants, bus stop, taxi stand, attractions, parking, surrounded by color full buildings and minutes to the famous church. Our room was big enough for our luggage and all of our stuff as we have been traveling for weeks. Only concern was there is no counter top to place your toiletries. I would go back and stay at this hotel. Breakfast was good. Inviting lobby and friendly staff. 2 thumbs up."

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."

Hotel Reykjavik Saga

10/10 Excellent

"Reykjavik Saga – A Wonderful Stay! Reykjavik Saga is a wonderful hotel that is modern, clean, and exceptionally well-maintained. The rooms are spacious and generously sized, which was an important consideration for my family and me. One of the things I particularly loved was the location. The hotel is right in the heart of downtown Reykjavík, making it convenient to explore the city, yet tucked away from the noise and bustle. The staff were extremely helpful and accommodating, assisting us with tour arrangements and transportation around Reykjavík. We also appreciated the convenience of being able to store our luggage at the hotel for the two days we checked out to explore the South Coast. And the breakfast selection was excellent! 👍 Overall, we had a wonderful stay, and I would highly recommend Reykjavik Saga to anyone visiting Reykjavík."

Hotel Borg by Keahotels

10/10 Excellent

"A charming hotel in Old Reykjavik. Around the corner from Laugavegur Street where there are many shops and restaurants. Be advised there is no restaurant within the hotel. The breakfast buffet is adequate but nothing great. The front desk were exceptionally helpful with my questions including how to get around, catch a city bus, etc."

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."
