Wonderful value for the money, hottub didnt have any steps to get into it but it looked like they were working on it. Sauna. And great gym available. Glass artwork throughout the hotel was actually for sale! Breakfast was minimal but sufficient, thin waffles, boiled eggs, dry cereal, and yogurt available 7-10. I would stay here again! No fridge or microwave in the room but didnt need jt.

Good hotel. Comfortable. Radiators were noisy when turned on. Also had a well stacked gym with a sauna and hot tub but I didn’t get chance to use it. Was a bit of a distance from central Reykjavík, I had a car, there was a bus stop just outside to take you to the centre but again I didn’t use it so won’t know how long the journey would take

Excellent customer service and front desk representative was amazing! Breakfast buffet was great with variety of options and staff that was very efficient and friendly. The one thing that concerned me was the parking lot conditions. The city had a freak snowstorm a couple of days before and the parking lot was still not plowed. The driving condition in this hotels parking lot was extremely dangerous and our 4x4 vehicle with winter tires slid a few times. My husband is an excellent driver and we did not get in an accident thank God.

Room and staff were great. However, I apparently got food poisoning from eating food (most likely culprit - chicken wings) in the bar. Beer also tasted a bit off, so there could have been disinfectant left in the glass when it was filled. I vomited the next mrning. Than symptoms gradually decreased.

The rooms are quiet and comfortable, and the location is excellent. It offers easy access to the highway towards Reykjavik or to Keflavik airport, making everyday road trips a breeze.
