We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The room was exceptionally clean and well-equipped, with a comfortable bed and ample amenities such as a coffee machine, fridge, and dishwasher. The wet room was spacious and stocked with high-end toiletries. The hotel's location was perfect, as it was a short walk from both the harbor and the iconic Hallgrímskirkja cathedral.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious and beautifully presented, with a cozy and modern decor. The cleanliness was impeccable, and the newly renovated rooms made us feel like we were in a luxurious haven. The hotel facilities, including the well-stocked kitchenette and the dish washer, were convenient and allowed us to feel at home. The location was perfect, as it was just off the main shopping street but still nice and quiet at nighttime. It was also conveniently situated to all the restaurants, bars, and major sights of this city. The staff were amazing, from the friendly receptionists to the helpful breakfast restaurant staff. The breakfast options were good, and we were even able to stay updated with BBC News on the TV. this hotel provided us with a comfortable and convenient stay.

The hotel's location on Veghúsarstígur is perfect, as it is centrally located and within walking distance of all the main sites in this city. It is also away from the noisy bar area, ensuring a peaceful stay. The cleanliness of the rooms and the facilities provided, including the kitchenette area, were outstanding. I appreciated the convenience of the parking options available, with a multi-story carpark right opposite the hotel. The transportation facilities were excellent, with the no 7 bus stop right by the hotel, making it easy to access all the excursion buses.
