Hübsches ruhiges Studio
Pros:

Das Studio liegt hervorragend am Ende der Reykjaviker Einkaufsstraße und ist einfach mit dem Auto zu erreichen. Ein Bäcker ist unten im Haus, ein kleiner Supermarkt liegt um die Ecke. Die Betten sind unglaublich bequem und der Geschirrspüler ist ein Plus.

Cons:

Mit dem sehr kleinen Bad konnten wir uns nicht anfreunden. Die Milchglasschiebetür schließt nur mäßig und somit gibt es nur wenig Privatsphäre (für den Teenagersohn schwierig).

Pros:

Excellent stay, we loved the self check-in. The bed was comfortable and the shower was amazing! The room has a great kitchenette area if you want to cook, the hotel has free parking and it is close to central Reykjavik! I would definitely recommend it :)

Decent hotel with good location
Pros:

The location is perfect for walking into the city centre, also close to a swimming hall. Parking is free in this neighbourhood and on the premises. Good size hotel room and comfortable beds.

Cons:

The room wasn't cleaned properly since we could find different types of body hair especially in the big bed. I think it was because of the bed linen being worn down and the hair was "stuck". The most annoying part was the bedcover that was so run down that flakes of it were everywhere all the time. Kitchen is mostly suitable for heating up food like frozen pizza, not enough equipment to cook properly and no hoover. The bathroom "door" would always come of the end and get stuck, also not convenient when you have a glass door right next to the dining table. No bathroom privacy.

Pros:

Wir hatten für 2 Nächte eingecheckt und waren sehr zufrieden. Checkin war unkompliziert, das Zimmer war schön und sauber, die Betten superbequem (wir haben geschlafen wie die Babys), Dusche tiptop und das Cafe im Erdgeschoss hatte leckere Sachen und macht das Frühstücken sehr unkompliziert. Da wir mit Auto unterwegs waren, waren Wege zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten etc. für uns auch kein Thema. Parkplatz haben wir hinter dem Haus problemlos gefunden. Gekocht haben wir nicht, kann dazu also auch nichts sagen. Die Küche war eh mit unserem Gepäck belegt:) Wir können Oddsson empfehlen.

Cons:

Seifenspender war nicht richtig befestigt an der Wand - kann man aber gut mit leben:)

Hôtel très confortable à 15mn du centre
Pros:

L’hôtel est très bien situé à 15mn à pied de rainbow street et il est facile de se garer gratuitement dans la rue.
Notre chambre était très spacieuse, nous avons été agréablement surpris par la superficie de la chambre ! Le lit un peu dur mais c’est au goût de chacun !
La salle de bain est tout aussi spacieuse
Nous étions en face de l’ascenseur mais n’avons rien entendu
Il y a une boulangerie juste en bas de l’hôtel directement accessible depuis le hall d’entrée, elle était très bonne ! (La vendeuse parlait francais)
Il n’y a pas de réception mais il est tout à fait possible de joindre le personnel si besoin ! J’avais demandé pour avoir des oreillers supplémentaires et ils ont répondu rapidement et favorablement à ma demande ! C’était super, je recommande ! Je resejournerai dans cet hôtel

Cons:

Rien
