Good view. Good drinks. Good food. Good value for dollar. Fantastic staff.

Staff was attentive and very helpful. Room was very clean. Bathroom was modern. Terrific view of the city from our room. Lounge on the top floor offered a brilliant 300 degree view of the city and water, and offered a nice drink and snack menu. Full breakfast each morning was fabulous and delicious.

Everything was good.

Good place to stay if visiting Reykjavik.
Pros:

Good size room with plenty of space to store 2 suitcases. Comfortable bed and a wonderful view of Harpa.
Good breakfast but coffee, other than pre-made from a large flask, was extra.
Excellent position for the centre of Reykjavik, go on whale watching trips and eating out.
Brilliant place for staying before a cruise from Reykjavik Harbour rather than the Cruise Terminal as it's a very short walk away.

Cons:

We stayed here about 8 years ago and the decor is now very tired. No USB ports.

Je suis allé 2 fois dans cet hôtel, pour dire qu'il me satisfait.
Pros:

L'hôtel est très bien situé, à quelques pas de Harpa, le port et la vieille ville.
L'accueil très professionnel, la chambre très confortable et un excellent petit déjeuner, très complet.
L'hôtel dispose de 5 places de parc gratuites, et si complet, un grand parking payant la journée se trouve devant l'hôtel.

Cons:

Rien, l'hôtel correspondait à mes attentes et tient ses promesses.

Pros:

Velmi dobrá poloha hotelu, vše je blízko. Příjemná obsluha. Výhled na moře a hory. Dobrá snídaně.

Cons:

Koupelna, zejména sprcha a vodovodní baterie na umyvadle (bál jsem se, že mi zůstane v ruce).
