Hotel Aska

The room facilities are very new, the staff are also very nice, the heating is very hot, but I may not have found the hair dryer.

It is a self check-in with no frontbdesk staff. But staff personnel was responsive with email. It would be even better if the hotel will consider using Whatspp.

I can absolutely sympathise with people who struggle to get in and check in to this hotel. When you book through a 3rd party app, you do not receive your room number or entry code. The check-in process is then an adventure of trying to shout into a tablet near the front door, for a call that lasts maximum 2 minutes before it disconnects and you have to try again. The layout is… odd… to say the least, but if you follow the signs you can eventually end up at your room (if you find some of the doors that work, not all do). The maintenance person who broke into our room while we were out forgot to lock the door, so we were at risk of all of our things being stolen, which wasn’t ideal. The room itself was nice, location is good and as long as you don’t need anything, you are getting what you pay for.

Stayed a second time just due to the price and decent location. The check-in process is horrible via third party apps like trip.com as you don’t receive your room number and entry code. The general review I can give is “you get what you’re paying for”. Reykjavik is expensive and this place is decent enough.

Everything was perfect. The room size is excellent. We stayed at another place in Iceland before coming to this hotel. The best part was the water from the tap; unlike the other place, there was no unpleasant smell due to sulfur content at Aska. I would rebook, if I am visiting Iceland again. The best part about Iceland is, bus stops are near to all the hotels.

Stunning in every way. Comfortable warm room with everything you'd need. And a short walk from BSI bus terminal and also to the town. Will be back for sure!
