Lovely overnight stay after Cruise.
Pros:

It’s centrally located in Downtown area. I’m a travel advisor and I will recommend this hotel to my clients. Very lovely and quiet. The staff is very helpful with any questions you might have. I dropped off my luggage prior to my check in time and left for an 8 hour tour of the Golden Circle. When we returned at 7PM that evening, we were exhausted and hungry. The front desk suggested a pizza restaurant 1/2 block away. What a great hidden gem. The bathrooms are fully marbled with a sensor light The bed is featherdown and very comfy. The breakfast was quite extensive with ginger shots, smoothies and Norwegian Salmon. The bus station 12 to take the bus to the airport is a 10 minute walk downhill.

Clean and kind and helpful staff
Pros:

Great breakfast. Fresh and varied. Good bread, yoghurt, cheese, Marmelade and other spreads and sweets. Good variety of warm and cold drinks. Some might be missing the warm food, but there is plenty of other options. Service was great - they eg quickly supplied separate duvets when requested! Very recommendable.

Excellent Reykjavik Stay
Pros:

Everything about Sand was marvelous: Liam, at the front desk, was extremely helpful suggesting sites to visit, and getting to them. The breakfasts were delicious. The bakery next door had the best bread and sandwiches (great for picnicking and taking on board Icelandia Air). Location was central to the city, and city bus was just a block away. Room was spacious.
