Fantastic stay – Perfect base for tours!
Pros:

Fantastic stay – Perfect base for tours!
"We had a wonderful stay at Eyja Guldsmeden Hotel. For anyone planning to join local tours, the location is incredibly convenient as it is a standard pickup point, making our early mornings stress-free.
The room environment was very cozy and comfortable. Most importantly, the bed was amazingly soft and provided a great night's sleep after a long day of exploring. Everything was spotlessly clean and well-maintained. Highly recommended for travelers looking for comfort and convenience in Reykjavik!"

The staff were so helpful! The room was very comfortable and very well cleaned.

Great value for money.
Pros:

Cute bed and interior. Comfortable room and bed.

Cons:

The walls are a bit thin and we could hear a person talking in the room next to us.
The bathroom door was making a noise every time it was opened and closed.
No fridge in the room.
