"Hotel was not in a convenient location- far from main tourist area. Some issues for wheelchair access- access from accessible parking spot was poor-rough gravel and broken asphalt. Room was large but access to bed was blocked with ladder to upper bunks. Bathroom toilet seat was wiggly/broken and made transfers difficult. Would be great to have shelf or cart in bathroom to put toiletries on. Breakfast was good- lots of options."

Reykjavik Residence Apartment Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Close to everything in city. Many restaurants . Property felt like home!"

Alda Hotel Reykjavik

10/10 Excellent

"Family of three stayed in a room with a room with a bed plus sofa bed. There was plenty of room for the three of us and our suitcases. Two of us enjoyed the sauna. Robes and towels were provided for all 3 which was nice and showers were also available in the gym area. We paid extra for the breakfast which was the best during our stay. The staff was very nice ! We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!"

Grandi by Center Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"Emma at the front desk went well above to make sure we enjoyed our stay. She made sure our room was well away from the large tour groups also using the facility. Indeed, we hardly noticed the other guests. She also made sure our spa and massage reservations were correct, even changing one to accomodate our changing schedule.. On another day, I stopped to ask where to find an odd size coin battery and the receptnist turned in her seat and said, "you mean like this?" And handed me the correct battery, she then declined to charge me for it. It didn't stop there as the bar, restaurant and housekeeping staff all went above and beyond to be helpful. The spa facilities were very relaxing with two separate hot tubs, a sauna and first class massage therapy services. Tour busses have difficulty navigating the narrow city streets, so there is an organized tour bus stop, #17, a very short walk away, in front of the Maratime Museum, a gateway to the wonders of the far north country. In summary, highly recommended."
