Reykjavik Hlidar Hotels

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.

The hotel is very comfortable, the environment is clean, and the room has enough space for activities. You can pack two large suitcases at the same time. Shampoo, shower gel and conditioner are provided, as long as you prepare your own toothbrush, toothpaste and slippers. The breakfast is normal, Don't expect most of it to fill your stomach. The most worth mentioning is his spa, which has outdoor and indoor hot springs and saunas! Really good! This shape does not accommodate children, so it will not be very noisy and there will not be many people when soaking in the hot spring, which is very good. There is also a massage service at your own expense, but it is only available until 6 pm at the latest, and there are only two rooms with one person in each room. Those who want to try it should pay attention

The guesthouse itself was nice enough. Note that if you stay in one of the economy rooms, you will only have access to one bathroom per 5 rooms (unless you are willing to walk back to the main house and use one of the bathrooms there). This was not an issue during my stay, but I woke up super early to avoid it becoming an issue. The real issue for me was the lack of communication. I ended up needing to spend an extra 50 dollars on long distance calls because this business failed to check their email or Facebook messages. On top of that, I had to call twice because I was given incorrect information the first time. Note that booking this property is a risk if you book through a third party (Expedia etc) because you may not receive the email with instructions on how to check in (this is why I had to call repeatedly after they failed to answer my emails).

Overall the hotel location and food is fine. Service is not very friendly though…. Coffee corner ran out of water, coffee and hot water. The front desk lady was quite helpful when I have enquiries.

The environment is beautiful, the housing conditions are clean, the service facilities are good, the design structure is unique, and the geographical position is unique. In the international market, there is such a hotel with high cost performance, and the description is worthwhile, so we must have a compliment here. Will continue to live one.

At the airport, you can get the bus ticket from the city, pick up the shuttle ticket to and from the hotel, take the flight time to the hotel, transfer the car to the hotel in the city center, arrive at the hotel at 2 am, and have the front desk service. The hotel is very close to the center. Nearly, the room is really too small, there is no place to open the trunk, even the bathroom door is adjustable in size, the water is really slow, there is a little bit of sulfur, basically can not smell, breakfast is very simple Western I only took the eggs and bananas. The one-day car can be picked up by the hotel, which is very convenient! This price is actually more expensive than Hilton, so decisively stay for one night for a place

Entrance to the guesthouse is via glassdoors; need to press the buzzer to be let in. Click on elevator button for 3rd Floor lobby.; Immediately right, the office is there man'd by owner (Migrated to iceland 20+ years) Showed around by the guesthouse manager + wifi connection PW pasted on the wall next to the manager room. Layout of area = typical of a shared bathroom/toilet guesthouse. Furniture: if you ever want to experience all things IKEA, this entire hostel Tables, Chairs, Cupboards, toiletries, bed frame, curtains, sink...etc etc are 99% Ikea , even the bed covers and mattress (spring coiled) are from Ikea. Single room size: Enough to park a large size sedan with enough room for your to cycle around on a unicycle, My room came with a sink/ mirror, cupboard (1.5metre wide), single bed with spring pocket, side table with lamps. Heated metal next to bed for cosy night. Toilet is clean and acceptable - no piss stains or poopy smells ( i suspect it is cleaned often). Shower area is lowly lit for some showers and some are larger with mirrors (brightly lit) - best to check which showers you want to use. Some shower room tiles seem to be covered with ”slime” but further check - seem to be covered with sulphur scales.. Water shower smells like rotten egg but its natural sulphur volcanic water occuring and gets some time to get used to it. (yicks) 101 Guesthouse is centrally located near 24/7 Grocers called 1011 which is similar to 7-Eleven (Food drinks, fresh fruits, bananas, bread, ham, cheese (enough stuff for family outing). Apart from grocers, it is next to bustop 10 which is listed in the tourist pickup point if you want to travel to see geysars or hiking tracks. there are about 9 Asian restaurants located within 10-150meters of the area; they are always fully packed - expect some noise from them during meal times . Asia restaurants = Vietnamese, Laos, Middle east, Burger joints, Pizza, italian, Japanese). Wifi connection in rooms are very weak - very strong in the pantry area. Fast for Zoom calls and games. Pantry: large Fridge, electric portable stove, many many plates, 2 pairs of fork / spoons, at least 20 teaspoons. Only 1 small bowl, electric kettle, TV. Clean tables and floor / chairs. Pantry need more bowls and spoons for cereal (owners do take note)

Great location for shopping on the way to the main attractions of the (very walkable) city. On arrival staff provided us with clear directions for our first day of touring. The room was very comfortable and our request for a quiet courtyard room was granted. Breakfast was outstanding as were all our interactions with staff, including the booking of our bus ride to KEF airport when we departed. Recommended,

The hotel is at the end of the pedestrian street, convenient to the attractions in the center of Reykjavik, and very close to the bus terminal, there are supermarkets and restaurants nearby. The room is big enough and comfortable, there is a lot of travel information in the hotel, the hotel's breakfast is good, and the luggage storage service is provided, and I will choose to stay here next time.

This hostel has a practical and functional location only. The only reason to stay here is for it’s convenient pickup and drop off stop for tours and the airport. The room was a 4 bed dorm and was stark. Located opposite the kitchen and above the main entrance meant it was quite noisy too. The bunks are very, very basic. There aren’t charging points at each bed in this particular dorm (3) and the blanket provided is a decorative throw. The cleaning left a lot to be desired. Regularly had to ask reception for hand soap in the toilet, paper towels and toilet paper. The Wi-Fi is non-existent and the reception staff are totally ambivalent; they are pleasant but absolutely no desire to help. Plausible deniability comes to mind. You only stay here for the location that allows you access to all that Iceland has to offer.
