The room and priperty was clean amd comfortable. No frills, but a nice property. The breakfast was very good and offered a wide variety of food items The restaurant opens for dinner only, and had a decent selection, (there isnt much close to the property aside from the airport). Overall, we were quite satisfied with out stay. It was very convenient for catching our morning flight from Keflavik airport (Reykjavik International)

Minimalist Hotel with GREAT LOCATION!

Found out after the fact that this was the ONLY hotel located at THIS airport so got very very lucky. Not fancy, very minimalist when it came to room amenities (towels, soap, etc) but restaurant and service was very good, and hotel definitely was convenient to the Iceland International Airport. Would not hesitate to book again.

Convenient having the hotel just steps away from the airport as my departing flight was so early in the morning. I also appreciated the 4am breakfast time.

You can’t beat the convenient location! Perfect for early departures. The hotel itself is fine - nothing special but it has everything you need. It could use darker blackout curtains…. Breakfast was great!

Basic airport hotel, large rooms, but no A/C so any type of warm weather and the rooms are uncomfortable to sleep. Very close to the airport terminal, so easy to walk with luggage to check in. Close to rental car returns. The in house restaurant is convenient but very lacklustre menu.

This hotel is walking distance to the airport, that is why we chose it. The room was a little dark/lighting was bad and we could feel the springs of the bed when we laid down. The bathroom was decent but again, poor lighting. The staff was pleasant and helpful. There was a good breakfast that was included in our room fee.
