Pros:

Die Menschen waren sehr freundlich. Die Zimmer sauber und ruhig.
Hervorzuheben ist das Restaurant gleich nebenan. Das ist in Island leider nicht immer so.

Cons:

Der Frühstücks- und Aufenthaltsraum ist ein riesiger Raum, der mehr an eine Halle erinnert. Ein optischer Raumteiler wäre nicht schlecht.

Grundsätzlich sind Hotels und Unterkünfte in Island teuer.

A good quality hotel, although basic
Pros:

We booked this hotel so we could have one night in Reykjavík during a layover. The front staff are super helpful and very accommodating. They helpedus find a good place to walk upon our arrival. The rooms are very clean but basic. The twin beds were on the small side. The shower was very refreshing. There were not a lot of toiletries offered by the hotel. The blackout shades were present and necessary. The morning. Breakfast was tasty overall a good stay and a good value. As someone who normally stays at Marriott or Hilton properties, this hotel was much less exciting.

Charming Icelandic Hotel
Pros:

My sister recommended this delightful hotel, and I'm glad she did. Local rather than a big chain. (Why come to Iceland to stay in a Hyatt?) Not a luxurious hotel, but has clean, charming rooms with crisp bed linens (but very few amenities, so bring your own lotion). As a solo traveler, I was given a small room with a twin bed, which suited me just fine. The hotel is right across from a park and a small zoo. It's not in downtown Reykjavik, but a short bus ride takes you right into the city center. Breakfast included. Good selection of items, and all delicious. They have a bar that stays open late. Take your drink to the outside terrace. Staff was very friendly and helpful both before and at my arrival. [I exchanged numerous emails with them before I came, and they answered promptly. They arranged private transport from the airport for me. (I didn't want to deal with buses.) And they can book tours for you also.] There is a restaurant right next door and a bank. [I like to use a bank's ATM to get cash in local currency, but every place (including the buses) takes credit cards.] I definitely would stay here again.

Pros:

Sehr gutes Frühstücksbuffet, Frühstückspaket wegen sehr zeitiger Abreise

Cons:

Leider wurde bis Mitternacht die Straße gewalzt unter ständigen Piepen, wofür aber dass Hotel nichts kann, ist üblich bei Einfallsstraßen..

Perfecto para unos días en Reikiavik
Pros:

El desayuno y la habitación muy buena

Cons:

Que está alejado del centro y tuvimos problemas para llegar a él ya que las calles estaban cortadas, fue un poco tedioso pero se ve que fue algo puntual y que no siempre es así.
