We had a great experience at Fosshotel Raudara, and I highly recommend this hotel to anyone. The staff were consistently amazing (very helpful and very friendly), the location is great (near the beginning of the major shopping street), the place is clean and well maintained, and the food at the breakfast was exceptional with a very wide selection. If you are in Reykjavik and want a proper hotel that doesn't break the bank (by Iceland standards), this is the place!

The hotel was fine, but it’s clearly outdated and needs a refresh. It gets the job done. It small bathrooms, old decor, and it’s still set in the 90s.

Good hotel in convenient central location. Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent breakfast included. Room spotlessly clean, quiet and comfortable. However, decor in rooms and common areas slightly tired and would benefit from updating. Hot water smells due to direct geothermal supply; changing this to a heat exchanger system would be beneficial.

First and foremost the staff was wonderful. They were helpful, knowledge and kind. The location is terrific. Walking distance to most sites and plenty of Restaurants and grocery near by. The complaints I have is the cost of the room and lack of amenities. The room is tiny and there is no refrigerator.

Convenient location in terms of walking around the city. Breakfast was good too but for a price. The only opportunity for improvement would be figuring out how to get rid of smell of sulfur from the water (sink, shower) as it is quite pungent.

The room was clean and comfortable. Overall, a basic hotel with a decent location. The staff was helpful and pleasant. The bathroom was on the smaller side - no shelf space which made getting ready a bit tricky. We didn’t choose to have breakfast there and instead explored the many delicious options within walking distance!
