The location was perfect, within walking distance of the main city center, yet on a quiet street. The hotel facilities were excellent, with a small kitchenette in our apartment and a separate entrance for added privacy. The cleanliness was outstanding, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. the hotel offered a delicious breakfast for those who wanted to start their day right.
Couldn't stay longer.
We loved our stay at this hotel! The cleanliness of the rooms and the hotel facilities were top-notch. We also appreciated the convenient on-street parking and the easy transportation options available in this central location in a quiet area. Being situated in what felt like a white Icelandic castle was truly unique, and we enjoyed being surrounded by lots of Embassies. The hotel's location was perfect for exploring the center of the city and all its attractions. The breakfast provided was excellent, and the staff were friendly and helpful.
Hard to think of anything negative.
The room was spotlessly clean, with a fridge that proved to be very useful. The bed was exceptionally comfortable and the private bathroom was spacious and comfortable. The location was perfect, as it was very close to the center of Reykjavik, making it easy to explore the city and visit restaurants and shops. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring that I had everything I needed during my stay. the little touches like the daily room cleaning and the chocolate left on the bed made my experience even more enjoyable.
Hard to think of anything.
We loved the cleanliness and hotel facilities of this place. The breakfast provided was great, with a variety of options including cheese, ham, bread, cereals. The staff was friendly and accommodating, allowing us to store our luggage until late evening. The location, situated in a beautiful residential area, was a great value for money. It was conveniently close to the main bus station and within walking distance of downtown.
Can't fault anything about it.
