Great location ; no overnight bag storage
Pros:

Hotel 101 is in a great location. The rooms were spacious and very clean. The lobby was warm and inviting. The staff was over and above friendly and helpful. Would have given 5 stars but the only negative was that they do not allow overnight storage of bags. We were going on a tour for several days and then returning to 101 and had counted on doing so. Not possible. Never had that happen at a hotel before. Need to fix that!

Perfect hotel for a couple’s vacation!
Pros:

This hotel had everything we were looking for in a place to stay for our brief (4 nights) couples’s visit to Iceland:

1. A central and very convenient location to shops, restaurants, cultural institutions, landmarks and sights in Reykjavik.
2. A chic contemporary vibe, perfect for a romantic adult vacation.
3. Comfortable and well appointed rooms.
4. Amenities: fireplace in the lobby, a restaurant and bar, sauna and hot tub
5. Excellent service by friendly and responsive staff
6. Marriott affiliated so we could book with or receive points

We were not disappointed!! This wonderful hotel checked every box for us. A bonus was the art in the hotel reminded us of the 21C Art Hotels in the US, if you’re familiar with that brand.

Tip: dining out is pricey in Reykjavik! While 35 USD per person (depending on the daily exchange rate) might seem on the high end for a breakfast buffet, the hotel has an excellent breakfast in our opinion and allowed us to skip or minimize lunches out, which was a savings. Also remember there is no tipping expected in Iceland so you also save the 15-20% on dining.

We were charmed by Reykjavík and Iceland and also by this hotel, and can’t wait for our next visit!

Great hotel!
Pros:

Found this to be a very good hotel. The location is perfect, within walking distance of most downtown attractions.

The room was great—spacious, comfortable, and modern.

The staff was also very nice.

Would stay here again!

If you are renting a car, parking is not trivial, so I’ll add what the hotel sent me.

Rooms can become loud, as people on the street tend to party until well after midnight.

Also, breakfast could be improved with more options.

Street Parking Zones:
1. P1 Zone :
* Hours: 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM on weekdays and Saturdays; 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM on Sundays.
* Rate: 600 ISK per hour.
* Maximum Duration: 3 hours.
1. P2 Zone :
* Hours: 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM on weekdays and Saturdays; 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM on Sundays.
* Rate: 220 ISK per hour.
1. P3 Zone :
* Hours: 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM on weekdays.
* Rate: 220 ISK per hour for the first two hours; 65 ISK per hour thereafter.
Other option would be parking in a secure garage close to the hotel, note that they close gate after midnight and open at 7am. During these hours you won't be able to access your car.

Sehr schön und gerne wieder!
Pros:

Lage zentral. Zimmer modern. Personal super nett! Stylische Bar und Lobby. Betten super!

Cons:

Lage neben 2-3 lauten Pubs/ Clubs lassen einen am Wochenende eher wenig schlafen.
Der Cappuccino könnte besser sein, da ist noch Luft nach oben!

Pros:

Staðsetning var fullkomin fyrir það sem ég var að sækja til Rvik.
Aðgengið var gott í það sem ég þurfti og þjónusta starfsfólks var eins og best verður á kosið

Cons:

Útsýnið af herberginu var mjög langt frá því sem lýsingin af Booking gefur upp.
Ég sá engin fjöll og engan sjó, bara bílastæði og bar.
