Pros:

colazione non particolarmente varia ma tutto di qualità. la posizione risulta dal centro non vicinissima ma la struttura ha un parcheggio proprio gratuito

Cons:

e' un hotel che non prevede una zona comune se non la sala colazioni. anche il check-in è ridotto al minimo, comunque il rapporto qualità prezzo conveniente

Pros:

Äußerlich eher unscheinbar übertrifft das Hotel innen die Erwartungen deutlich. Hervorragend eingerichtete, ausgesprochen saubere Zimmer mit riesigem, traumhaftem Bad. Ein englisches Frühstück wird nicht angeboten, aber ansonsten ist von Süß bis Herzhaft alles da, was das Herz begehrt. Besonders nett war das wegen des frühen Abflugs für uns mitten in der Nacht im Kühlschrank deponierte Frühstückspaket.
Wer Reykjavik besucht, kommt an Kreativität, Farbe und Lebendigkeit nicht vorbei und auch im Hotel sind sehr ansprechende Exponate ausgestellt. Paeken ist für Hotelgäste direkt vor dem Hotel kostenlos. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Cons:

Man läuft ca. 20 Minuten bis zur Innenstadt, aber das ist bei Buchung ja bereits bekannt.
Anstatt eines persönlichen Check-Inn erhält man die Zugangsdaten per Nachricht- funktioniert tadellos, aber wir mögen es gerne etwas persönlicher.

Excellent stay in the center of Reykjavík
Pros:

Located in the residential neighborhood and just 8 minutes from the city center and pedestrian street hotel Lotus offers an exceptional value and service. Parking and breakfast are the main perks of this hotel. Rooms are spacious. Some with balcony. Clean throughout. Breakfast was better than what we had in the luxury hotels on Iceland. All products are of great quality and taste.
Thank you for the wonderful experience. We will return.

Cons:

Nothing

CLEAN & MODERN WITH A GREAT BREAKFAST
Pros:

The suite was a good size, clean and modern. The shower was wonderful. The bed was very comfortable. Their breakfast was great! Also, they were kind enough to let us check in early, as our flight arrived in the late morning. And then after breakfast they allowed us to keep luggage stored for a couple of hours. Very nice people and lovely hotel. Go to the local free Botanical Garden a short walk.

Cons:

We felt it was too expensive $500 USD for only one night, but it was a suite - not a typical room; and they made additional accommodations to fit within our schedule.

A great hotel with parking. Really comfortable , clean and well equipped.
Pros:

Booked a single room. Can’t fault in any way. Left early for the airport so can’t comment on breakfast, but the all day coffee and cake suggests it would have been good.

Cons:

Nothing.

Prima hotel met topservice
Pros:

De juniorsuite was erg mooi en schoon. Met heerlijke bedden. Het personeel is supervriendelijk en behulpzaam; later uitchecken was geen probleem. Het ontbijt was heerlijk, niets op aan te merken.
Het is ongeveer een half uurtje lopen naar het centrum.

Cons:

Schickes, modernes und sauberes Hotel. Sehr freundliches Personal
Pros:

Ein Hotel mit sehr freundlichem Personal.
Betten waren top und Sauberkeit auch. Hotel hat im Souterrain ein kleinen kleinen Frühstücksraum mit Möglichkeit auch außen zu sitzen. Alles schick und sauber. Zugang zum Gebäude und dem Zimmer erfolgt über PIN was problemlos funktioniert hatte. Kurz durchs Antippen aktivieren und dann PIN + #. Personal kann über Klingel im kleinen Foyer gerufen werden falls nicht vor Ort. Kostenlose Parkplätze vor dem Eingang.
Lage war ein wenig abseits vom Zentrum so daß man fussläufig etwa 15-20 min benötigte, was für uns absolut ok war, da dafür ruhige Ecke.

Cons:

Zimmer war ein wenig klein im Vergleich zu anderen Hotelzimmern dieser Kategorie so dass wir kaum Platz hatten unsere Koffer auszubreiten.

Auswahl zum Frühstücken nicht so groß (zB keine warme Gerichte wie gekochte Eier oder Rührei) aber ok für 2-4 Tage.

Zimmer hat keine Klimaanlage
