3-Star Hotels in Reykjavik

Absolutely wonderful stay. Rooms were clean, warm and tastefully decorated, with coffee making facilities and a fridge. Bathroom was clean and water was always hot, great after a long day out. All staff were wonderful. Super friendly and helpful. Breakfast was plentiful. Location excellent. Cannot fault this place at all.

The hotel's front desk service is very good. The hotel rooms are also very quiet, which is rare in Iceland. The location of the hotel is a bit far from the old town. . . . . . . . .

Hotel was clean, and overall nice. Free breakfast was very nice and had a wide range of food (bread, yogurt + toppings, make your own waffles, beans, eggs, coffee & tea); there is also a communal fridge on the 2nd floor. However, a few VERY IMPORTANT things to know regarding this hotel being self-service: 1. You are supposed to receive an entry code to get into the hotel 24-48 hours before arrival. We did not know this as we had booked through a credit card rewards program. We arrived to the hotel through the parking structure and were met with a key pad and a sign saying that all guests should have a code in their email. We called two numbers for the hotel and could not reach anyone - so we just called constantly and sat outside the building door for ~30-45 minutes. Finally some guests left and held the door open for us so we were able to be in the lobby. It was around 6pm which is when the bar opens up, so we were finally able to find a staff member who helped us. Our credit card company also finally got in touch with someone and we received our email with the code. So FYI - if you have not received a code within 24 hours, make sure you reach out so you have time to get into contact with the hotel as they do not appear to answer their phones all the time (email may be more effective). 2. The parking structure is difficult to park in - it is an underground structure, so just be prepared to park in a slightly tight space. However, the parking structure leads directly into the hotel which was very nice! 3. As it is a self-service hotel, we were having trouble opening and closing our door (we couldn't get it to lock). We were able to ask the man tending to the bar for help; but he was only able to do a temporary fix; I feel at a non-self service hotel we may have been able to get a different room with an appropriately functioning door. We just had to use lots of strength and make lots of noise to slam the door shut to lock it - not the biggest deal, but just a small note. 4. Just an FYI that this location is not in the city center of Reykjavik (you would have to drive or take the bus to get to the city center). This place is more residential, with grocery stores (which we went to) etc. We had stayed in a hotel in the city center earlier in the trip; and this was a very different spot of Reykjavik. Just FYI that Reykjavik is massive! Overall nice, clean hotel - but the self-service aspect does have its pros and cons (you just don't have the 24/7 support you might have at another hotel when little things go wrong etc.).

We were initially allocated 331 which was in another block and had twin beds, so we swapped to room 301 which was double and we weren't disappointed. It was a clean and spacious, comfy bed .Great to have a ettle, fridge and coffee machine :-) Large walk in shower with constant hot water. Large wardrobe, plenty of storage. We had a 2nd door onto a corridor to other rooms, there was windows in this wall but by opening curtains people on corridor could look in. Only downside no natural light. Relatives across corridor in room 305 had full wall of windows for day light. Breakfast was good choice and plentiful. Reception staff friendly and helpful. Located with walking access to everything. Would stay here again and recommend

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.

The location of the hotel is really good, at the end of the commercial street, it is lively to go out, and it is also close to the landmark Sun Boat. There is a Domino's Pizza opposite the hotel, there is a Bonus supermarket 300 meters away, and the free parking lot is great. The decoration is really a bit old, but the sanitary condition is worthy of reassurance.

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.

A successful attempt to blend a hostel and hotel together, this place has touchless check in and processing. I loved being able to get in the door with a code, get my key card with a code and go directly to my room. Do I worry they never change the codes and one day that might be a security risk? Yes. But I accepted it. The rooms are small with not great sound proofing, but private, cozy, functional, and bathrooms are small and worked. I would like at least one more hook for wet stuff but more importantly- the rainshower head was not working for us and the water spills everywhere in the bathroom. You can see the damage on the wood door already. Also- no washcloths. I had brought my own but be aware. I also couldn't really figure out the towel warmer/heater thing. The vending machines, free coffee, basic plates/cutlery/snack drawer were perfect when you need them. I could not figure out breakfast- one morning there was a huge delicious spread. Other mornings, nothing! Was it one big group that set it up? Who knows!! Expect nothing. Leaving luggage was easy, elevators worked fine, everything seemed very clean and kept up. If your priority is to save a chunk of money on hotel and you are ok with a car or bus tours, this will be a good choice since it's easy to get to and there are grocery/restaurants around. For a first trip with no car though, I would say it's worth a bit more money to get a center city hotel. The buses and taxi systems just aren't secure enough for foreigners to rely on and it's so much time/energy getting to and from without a car.

When we return to Iceland, we will most likely look first at staying here. It was very clean and comfortable, the people at the front desk were super helpful, the lobby was beautiful, and we enjoyed the free garage parking very much. We stayed here our last night before flying back home, and we had to leave at 6am so we were unable to enjoy the complimentary breakfast, but they did have coffee and pastries waiting for us in the lobby before we departed. The location was just a short 5 minute drive to the center of town, and the person at the check-in desk gave us very good directions for parking and even made a great dinner reservation for us at the Seafood Grill. We had a wonderful time.

Very comfortable hotel, I have stayed twice, not far from the attractions, there are a lot of parking spaces, free from 6 pm to 9 tomorrow, breakfast is good, suitable for Chinese stomach, very new and hygienic, young lady at the front desk warm !! Not bad!
