Hotel Reykjavík Grand
Excellent room based on where you get it. First time was in Junior suite and would rate it the best and second time was in an older section, which was clean but the bathroom was okay.

Reykjavik Residence Apartment Hotel
Ideally situated in the centre of the city just off the main shopping street. Room was warm and very clean. Coffee pods replaced daily and breakfast basket covered breakfast and snacks. Fresh bread hung on door every morning.

Thingholt Hotel Apartments from Center Hotels
The location is great - right in the heart of Reykjavík. The bathroom really smelled of mildew and mold. Even with two windows open, the smell really permeated the entire apartment.
