Wonderful property and staff. It was close to everything so you’re able to walk and get to all attractions, bars, tours etc. parking is the only issue, no on sight parking so you have to find a garage or street parking, pay and then walk. If you find parking jnP2 it’s like $20 a day

What a great stay!! In the center of it all m highly recommend. Please do note parking in this area can be difficult.... so just make sure to download parking app. This has nothing to do with hotel... just a heads up. Also make sure to eat at Apotek restaurant. We went 2xs it was so delicious. Can't go wrong with anything on menu!

We booked 2 standard rooms. One was ok, the other was tiny , no space to even put our suitcase. We had to upgrade to a superior room as it was just not comfortable. The superior room was bigger but fairly sparsely furnished. Reception staff friendly and the hotel was right in the centre so super convenient. Public car park 3 minute walk away, £35 overnight.

The Apotek Hotel and restaurant were fabulous! I picked the hotel based on its location and reviews, and it was a success! We loved our visit to Iceland, and the Apotek was in the perfect location. Don't waste another second reading reviews; book the trip and go!

Winter week

Location is very central, near the shops and restaurants and bus stop 3 for all your pickups and drop offs. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Room and breakfast were adequate, although room was quite cool with heat mainly coming from a great towel roll in the bathroom. Shower room was nice with molten brown as a nice treat. At one end of the hotel you can hear the live music downstairs until 2am at the weekend. We would stay again.
