Lage war gut. Das Restaurant Le Kock ist eigentlich eine Selbstbedienung mit sehr guten Burgers.
Pros:

Die Lage & Schliessfächer für das Gepäck.

Cons:

Das Hotel wird wohl von Studenten geführt (Check-in). Wir kamen am Vormittag für das Gepäck und das Zimmer war nicht bereit, was ganz ok war. Als wir am Abend wieder kamen, mussten wir ewig für das Check- in warten.

Perfect little spot for our stay.
Pros:

Really great location and welcoming staff. They were really helpful in finding parking nearby and with little tips to get around the city. Speedy check-in, nice and clean. Would stay again.

Delightful surprise. Easy and close. Great vibe.
Pros:

Great location. For downtown Reykjavik you could not do better. Ok lighting to do makeup which is rare in hotels.

Cons:

Room was quite small but that is typical of Iceland. Warn staff make up for any lacking facilities.

Hôtel très bien situé
Pros:

Chambre petite mais confortable
Tres bon emplacement, proche du centre et ses commerces, des principaux sites et du vieux port pour les activités maritimes, omnom et ses chocolats. le lava show et les restaurants de poissons.
Petits déjeuners copieux et variés dès 7h du matin, ce qui permet de partir tôt pour les visites.

Cons:

L'accueil très froid des hôtesses, peu d'explications. Un sourire changerait tout !!!!
Et il faut aimer ( ou pas ) la déco très froide des murs en béton brut, déco style industriel.
