"Excellent location to explore Reykjavík on foot or take tours using Reykjavík as home base. Bakery, restaurant and bar on site were very good. When we booked, we thought breakfast was included but it was not. Room did not have a thermostat to control temp and it was very warm. I would still recommend staying here."

"Everything was fantastic!! The breakfast was clutch, the rooms were amazing and staff was super helpful! I loved how close this hotel is to alot of the sights and things to do while you're visiting! Huge food scene just around the corner! My only advice is to people driving here, they have free parking for guests but very limited spaces. Luckily the street parking is free after 9pm. Other than that, I'd highly recommend this hotel to anyone travelling to Reykjavik"
