8.3Verified guest

“A solid new hotel across from a rather shabby-looking guesthouse. Not cheap at around £70 per person per night for a double, but better value than other indifferent options in the city. The neighbourhood hasn't changed much since 2007, but the hotel itself is quiet with friendly staff, good facilities, comfy rooms, and a good breakfast. It's a 15-minute walk to the centre, but everything you'd want to see is reasonably close, and there's a supermarket just around the corner on Laugavegur. Worth it if you can afford it.”

8.3Verified guest

“Convenient location for exploring. The beds were comfortable and I slept well. Staff were helpful and spoke several languages.”

8.3Verified guest

“Rooms were lovely and the staff amazing. Over three nights they helped us plan exactly where to go, explaining the history and why we should see those places.”
