Fosshotel Barón

Clean room with lots of space (deluxe double). Walking distance to all we wanted to see and some amazing restaurants. Front desk was super helpful, we paid for the breakfast and were leaving the last day prior to it starting and they gave us a to go snack bag. 2 blocks from #9 bus stop where we picked up all our day tours. Would stay again!

Blonde lady who checked us in on the morning of October 6 was extremely patronizing and rude.
However, the woman who helped us out on the evening of October 9 was extremely helpful. It’s so basically you wouldn’t lose some.

Check in was smooth. Location is excellent.

We arrived at the hotel early, but we were able to start exploring the city right away since the hotel kindly offered to store our luggage until check-in.

We stayed in a deluxe double room, which included a small fridge—perfect for preparing lunches for our day trips. The room was spacious, spotless, and featured both a rainfall and a regular shower head, which was ideal for my tall husband.

We also chose the breakfast package, which offered a great variety of hot and cold options. The food was very good and nicely presented.

The staff were friendly and accommodating. Since it was our first time using the local buses, they were especially helpful in explaining which one to take from the Planetarium back to the hotel.

We would recommend this hotel.

Such a great place! Can’t wait to come back!

It was a place to sleep. Nothing outstanding, but comfortable and in a solid location.

Great location very walkable to local attractions and dining options with transport available if required. Hotel is modern in the lobby and dining area offering payable snacks and drinks with comfortable seating area. The bedroom was a good size for two adults though the decor was very dated. The bathroom had a shower that was completely unusable because the size wouldn't permit an adult body let alone space to wash effectively. Customer service was impeccable with staff accommodating, helpful and very kind.

Didn’t love that we had to pay for parking

In general a good hotel not fancy, clean staff was always respectful and attend to help. I bit expensive but in general all great

The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Very

Just got back from staying here for a week. Our room was great, spacious with a large deck and water view (we booked the deluxe room), the front desk staff was very helpful and friendly and made our stay enjoyable, the breakfast had lots of options (fresh fruit and cereals, bacon and eggs, waffles, croissants, meats and cheeses, yogurt...), and it was conveniently located (short walking distance to Bus Stop 9, Laugavegur, and Harpa). We definitely recommend this hotel and would stay again.

Great location! Excellent breakfast. Staff were warm, friendly and helpful. Hotel facilities are quite basic though ( no fridge, iron) but fulfills your needs to lay your head at night - since most of the day will be spent out touring.

Clear room. Friendly and helpful staff.

Parking was a bit confusing as to price otherwise great location, walkable to most of the places in downtown Reykjavik, safe walking in the evening. Room basic but clean

This was our 2nd stay at this hotel. It is very conveniently located, within walking distance of the Old Harbor and the shops and restaurants on Laugavegur. Our room was very comfortable, and had 2 large windows to help adjust the temperature.

The staff is extremely friendly and helpful.

We opted for breakfast, which was delicious and had many options

Excellent stay at Fosshotel Baron!
Perfectly located, with excursion buses picking up right outside and many attractions and restaurants within walking distance. The staff was friendly and provided outstanding customer service. We were so grateful that since our room was already available, they kindly let us check in earlier after a long flight, it made such a difference. Highly recommend this hotel for both comfort and convenience!

This was a fantastic stay. Beautiful room. Kind and helpful staff. Very conveniently located. Would definitely stay here again!

The reason I am giving this hotel 4 stars is the bathroom. The bathroom is small, the sink is a pedestal sink no room for 2 peoples toiletries and it has a small glass shelf over the sink. Also not enough hooks to hang clothes or towels. The shower is small with curtain so water comes out and floods the floor. The rest of the room is ok. The hotel is clean and provides breakfast. Breakfast selection is average. The people at the front desk are very nice. The hotel is located within walking distance of various bus stops for tour buses. Also walking distance to various restaurants and shopping. Everything was good with the exception of the bathroom.
