Central, with great service
Pros:

The staff's friendly, helpful and professional nature stood out during our stay at this centrally located hotel in Reykjavik. Despite being on the main shopping street Laugavegur, this caused no issues like noise, etc. All the sights are within 15 minutes walking distance.
Whilst comfortable and clean, the room was very small with limited hanging and storage space.
Breakfasts were good with various options.
Overall, this is a good base for exploring the city.

Great Location; Convenient to Shopping and Eating
Pros:

The hotel is conveniently located to many shops and places to grab a bite or a coffee. It is very close to the local supermarket, Bonus, and is only a few blocks from a bus stop. There is a Starbucks adjacent to the hotel (the first in Iceland!) with some seating. The hotel provides free water via a cooler in the lobby and I enjoyed filling up my water bottle daily. The staff was friendly and quite helpful. Guests are provided with a special cell phone which can be used for directions or for finding restaurants/attractions when you are outside of the hotel. The room was very nice although, as previously mentioned, the balcony outside the room is public to hotel guests so discretion should be used when opening the drapes or keeping the door open.

Konumu iyi. Kahvaltı cok iyi. Bu fiyata odalar daha iyi planlanabilirdi.
Pros:

Yeri, kahvaltısını, balkonu

Cons:

Oda tasarımını. Eşya koyacak raf, bavul açacak yer yoktu. (2 gün sonra tekrar aynı otelde kaldık, 2. odamız aksine cok rahattı) 3 gün boyunca banyomuza el sabunu konmadı.

Location, Service, Comfort - Excellent!
Pros:

We loved our stay here - the location was perfect for exploring Reykjavik - lots of restaurants and shops to walk to. Rooms were comfortable - good size, with space for a couch and extra chair in the room; beds were comfortable and the breakfast options (fruit, cheese, eggs, juices) were a great way to start the day. Note this is not a luxury hotel but very comfortable, clean and pleasant.

Great location with comfy rooms and excellent breakfast!
Pros:

We loved the location in the centre of downtown Reykjavik. The room was large and very comfortable. It was super clean and had good facilities - a coffee maker with pods, a small fridge, good shampoo, body wash and body milk. There were bathrobes and a blanket. The decor was natural and relaxing.
Staff were outstanding - they were very helpful. The breakfast has an excellent selection of options meaning there was something for everyone! The bread was worth a mention - so fresh and delicious!

Cons:

We liked everything! There was nothing to dislike!

Pros:

Emplacement idéal à Reykjavik pour démarrer notre séjour, en plein centre ville et proche de routes les commodités. L'hôtel et les chambres sont très confortables, le personnel accueillant et serviable Petit déjeuner varié

Cons:

L',absence de parking dédié à l'hôtel et obligation de se garer dans la rue. L'hôtel est en zone P1, donc la plus chère. Il faut aller assez loin pour un prix raisonnable. Nous nous sommes garés pile en face de l'hôtel et cela nous est renevu à environ 15€ pour la fin de journée et la nuit. Pour la litterie nous préférons les matelas plus fermes

Great location, quality rooms, friendly staff
Pros:

The room was quite large, and in a good location at the end of the busiest part of the main walking street. I liked this because it meant that the hotel was quieter at night as compared to some of the hotels that are closer to the main shopping area. The other thing that was completely unexpected and I had never experienced before was that the hotel provided me with a complimentary cell phone loaded with data that I could use any time I wanted on my trip if I didn't want to use my own phone. I couldn't believe it! I also loved that they had a water station next to the elevator with SELTZER water for free! This was AWESOME!

Cons:

The doors didn't seem to be very thick, so I could hear noise coming through them any time someone went down the hall. Fortunately, I was at the end of the hall, so this wasn't a huge problem.

Great location. Clean, minimalist hotel
Pros:

Centrally located, near the bus stop pick up and drop off for several tours and the airport flybus. Lovely and clean. Definitely minimalist in keeping with a hotel in the Nordic countries. A relatively large room for the price in Iceland.

Cons:

The room was extremely warm and opening the window didn't really help. I think this was due to the constant sun and potentially facing south meant the room was naturally heated all day. Probably great in winter!
