This hotel is in the perfect location to be able to walk everywhere. There is free tea, coffee, and hot chocolate all day. The staff are very kind and offered to upgrade my room without me asking. My room has a beautiful view of the church. Breakfast was filling with fresh fruit, Skyr, pastries and bread.

The location is perfect for exploring Reykjavik! It's directly across from the iconic church and a very short walking distance to the center of shopping and Rainbow street. I stayed in a single room for a solo traveler and it had everything needed without feeling cramped and was a quiet room. There's a lovely (pay for drinks) bar in the lobby for evenings. The tea and coffee and wifi were free so a lovely place to wind down for the night. Includes a breakfast with stay which is hard to find and it had plenty of options for a variety of dietary needs. Staff was very courteous and kind. Lastly, if renting a car, parking across the street is very inexpensive for the day and free on weekends and holidays.

The location was perfect: right by the big new church in the center of downtown. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was small but not tiny, and comfortable. Breakfast was a perfect deal, with tasty and healthful array of breads, fresh fruit, condiments, and yogurt. I would be happy to choose this hotel again in the future.
