Pros:

Location was in downtown, a perfect location for visiting many attractions and walkable to many and next door to an amazing bakery. Room was clean and large. Staff was exceptional. Friendly, professional and helpful. Made you feel welcome. Appreciated the luggage storage both pre check in and post check out while we made the most of every minute. The breakfast was very good and had something for everyone.

Very nice hotel in the center of all you want in Reykjavik.
Pros:

This hotel is in a prime location for visiting downtown Reykjavik! Countless restaurants and pubs are nearby, so you wont want for that, or for things to do! The atmosphere was welcoming and courteous. The reception team got us checked in quickly (although we arrive at about 9:45 AM) and while they didnt have a room right way, pointed us in a good direction to do some initial sightseeing, shopping and eating. The room was very nice, great bathroom too. We circumstantially visited concurrent with a PRIDE parade and departed the day before the solar eclipse. Needless to say, the hotel was busy and the rooms expensive, but not proportionally more than other similar hotels. We could tailor our housekeeping services to our needs, and the team did a great job keeping the rooms and common areas clean and inviting. Situated along a main walking street, the noise (street-side) tended to be a little higher at night thane had hoped, but wasn't terribly intrusive. Complimentary breakfast was very nice!!

From the initial greeting to the end farewell, staff were most helpful and courteous. The room was small but very clean and neat. The daily breakfast included was excellent, as was the location.
