Pros:

staff was very friendly and location was good

Cons:

Poor soundproofing meant even tiny sounds from other rooms came straight through. The elevator was outdated and noisy enough to be heard from the room. Also, smell of food from the kitchen on the lowest floor reached all the way to the top floor.

A lovely and special boutique hotel
Pros:

This lovely boutique hotel is situated in a quieter part of Reykjavik which we really enjoyed. The vibe is very casual and pleasant, and the staff are great. The small restaurant offers excellent food and the breakfast is also good. The room was comfortable and clean, and had everything one could ask for. I would choose it again.

Cosy little retreat in the heart fo Reykjavik
Pros:

I've stayed here before and was really looking forward to coming back. The rooms are clean and comfortable and have everything you need. I stayed for work and appreciate the small desk for evening emails! The shower and bathroom are amazing.

Lovely ambience in the evening, didn't try the food but the happy hours were appreciated.

Cons:

The lift is old, and this cannot be helped at all, but for those with bad backs, I don't recommend using it. It jolts quite a bit. This is by no means a reason for minus points, but something for older guests to be aware off. I used the stairs to avoid this.

Pick somewhere closer to a bus station as shuttles don’t take you there

Great central location and friendly staff, the perfect base for exploring Reykjavik and Iceland.
Pros:

The location is perfect: right in the center of Reykjavik, a few minutes’ walk from the tour bus stops, Harpa and Laugavegur. The staff were very helpful, kept my luggage while I was on a 3-day tour, and made check-in easy even late at night. The bar downstairs is a nice touch after a long day of touring.

Cons:

Nothing major. The room was on the small side, and breakfast could have started a bit earlier for guests leaving on early tours.

Gutes Zimmer im Stadtzentrum
Pros:

Gutes Zimmer, top Lage in der Nähe des Stadtzentrums, gut ausgestattete Zimmer, Personal sehr freundlich.

Cons:

Zimmer war ungünstig im Treppenhaud gelegen, man hörte den Lift und die Musik aus der Lobby, generell sehr hellhörig.

We really liked the room and staff, very accommodating but I wouldn’t bring kids
Pros:

I loved the room, very clean and just perfect for one night in the city.

Cons:

We could hear everything. The walls were paper thin. We unfortunately heard people engaging in sexual activities.
