The location was stunning, not very far from Parking. Lots of food at continental breakfast including cereals, cheese and fruit to order.
Shame the bathroom was a little old.

The hotel is fairly clean and the rooms are tastefully decorated. Privileged location, not too far away from reykjavik art museum hafnarhus. English bar is a very nice plus.
This venue needs a little tlc.

The room was luxurious and the hotel was located close to a bus stop. I loved that the night bar was spotless. The bed was big and it was great having free wireless internet, 32-inch flat-screen TVs with HBO and terrace. Unbeatable location for my purposes. Apart from that, lifelike figures was 5 minutes away by driving.
Breakfast, it was quite poor, could be way much better.

Very attentive staff and packed breakfast. Gorgeous decor, lovely beds, elegant rooms. Visit Cafe Loki for some desserts, especially when it's rainy outside, my personal advice. Would stay here again and enjoy a very nice stay.

Fashioned rooms, extremely nice staff, perfect breakfast. I was welcomed by helpful owner. I slept so comfy in the extra comfy bed. Pretty clean place and hospitable service. Moreover, it had parking nearby. The location was superb, at a near distance from the icelandic punk museum.

It was an unforgettable experience. The check-in was easy, we liked English bar. Perfect apartment was a highlight for us. We stayed for 2 nights here, loved Reykjavik 101 district. Also, it was down an alleyway to the side of the building.
We expected that there would be tv, but we didn't find it.
