Finding lodging in Iceland isn't easy on a budget. So when I saw this "relatively" low priced guesthouse, I must say I wasn't expecting much. What a great surprise it was! It couldn't have been any cleaner. No carpets anywhere (carpets in hotels are rarely fresh and clean). It was extremely quiet. There was a balcony. My friend and I were in a room with a shared bathroom and there were only 3 rooms sharing the bathroom. Walking out the front door the big church is just a block away and in full view. We didn't communicate often with the staff but when we did they were extremely pleasant, helpful and accommodating. Everything that we'd wanted to see and do was within 5-15 minutes walk, so perfect location. If I'm ever back in Reykjavik I'll definitely be staying here and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Our flight to Iceland was abruptly cancelled by the airline due to a storm. I phoned Guesthouse Sunna to inform them that it would be impossible for us to arrive and requested that to cancel the booking. They stated a two-day advance notice for cancellations and charged my card for one night without any consideration of the circumstances. I am disappointed by Guesthouse Sunna. It seems their primary concern is financial rather than the well-being of their customers.

We stayed here for 1 night. The location was great, near many Reykjavik sights. The room was clean and comfortable. The only negative thing is the sulfur smelling water which is common in Iceland.

Cozy stay with great location

Loved staying at Sunna Guesthouse. It was very conveniently located a few steps from bus stop 8. I had a view of the cathedral, which was magnificent. So close to great streets for sightseeing, and brilliant and helpful staff. Very clean and quiet. Highly recommend.

We accidentally checked the "poor" box, when we meant to check "excellent." DUH! We stayed here for five nights and loved it. The staff was amazing—extremely pleasant and helpful, always taking time to answer our questions. We found one woman (the Manager, we think) to be so gracious and accommodating. For example, we asked for two extra pillows and they were delivered in 30 seconds! Our room was on the ground floor, and it was so quiet and private and within a few feet of the free parking which was another asset provided by Sunna. The beds were perfect, especially the down comforters. We couldn’t get the TV going but we never asked for assistance. After all, why watch TV when in Iceland??? It makes much more sense to roam the streets and pet the kitties of Reykjavik! And there is not a better location: within a stone’s throw of the iconic Lutheran Cathedral and all the good shops and restaurants in the downtown area. We’ll definitely be back!

The room is clean and self sufficient. Very convenient to walking to the city center. It was a little tricky getting into the guest house because it was not clear that there are two buttons to access the door. After traveling for eighteen hours, we were not at our best and did not make the connection. Once we figured that out, it all made sense. The guest house was easy to find - all you need to do is look up to find the large church and start walking up.
