The hotel is close to the bus terminal , restaurants and shops .
The room was clean , but the beds need new mattresses as they are not very comfortable.
Nice hotel with a lovely lounge and bar area. Close to the main area (walking distance). Car parking available without fee.Comfortable room, cozy bed and bedding. We stayed twice we liked it so much.
The hotel is quiet and has a fabulous bar. The breakfast was yummy. I loved the location. Easy to walk to area attractions. The art was also enjoyable.
The hotel was beautiful. Loved all the art! Front desk was super friendly and helpful. Location was perfect ... near everything but tucked away on a quiet block.
I really enjoyed my stay at the Holt. Very charming and quiet hotel only a few minute was to the BSI terminal (excursion shuttle hub) and the City Center. The staff is amazing! Very kind and helpful, would stay here again.

Nice hotel, great location to walk into the main area of Reykjavik. Slightly dated but the bed was comfy and the room clean. Good buffet breakfast. Friendly staff.
A beautiful classic hotel. The artwork is everywhere and fantastic. The breakfast was excellent. And very quiet, yet only less than 10 minutes to lots of restaurants and the sights.
Great location with short walk to the heart of Reykjavik on Laugavegur. Quite neighborhood. Easy parking. Not a chain, but an original, local hotel. Beautiful Icelandic art work throughout hotel and rooms.
The property is well cared for and well run! It is a few blocks from the main street of restaurants and the Church. It is easy walking distance to the harbour and the bus terminal.
We did not choose the breakfast option. The room had a nespresso machine. We had a room with a separate sitting area from the bedroom. It was great! With a view of the church. The ART everywhere really elevated the hotel into a be seen place.
