Very nice and cosy hotel. The rooms are pretty small but nice. The bathroom is tiny but functional. The staff is really helpful and kind. Breakfast has great healthy and sweet options and is served with a smile. WiFi is great. Location is very good, close to restaurants and Harpa. You can park for free a few streets from the hotel, make sure to download the Parka app (it shows you which sites are pay zones). Suggestions for the hotel; a wiper in the bathroom and a towel rack.

Small but comfortable!

The room is small and there is limited storage space but the bed was more comfortable than some 5 star hotels. The room was cleaned well and breakfast was good… it would be nice if they had changed the menu a little each day and if they had skyr. The staff was friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a great stay and the location was convenient. I would definitely return.

Staff try to ensure meeting needs of travelers and very accommodating. The property is old and needs some upgrades which are expected given its age. It is a cozy and charming place for sure. I recommend travelers who value cleanliness, charm, and human touch with staff.
