Baron’s hostel was amazing for the most part. The only issues I had with it was the elevator is the only access point but at one point the elevator broke/ needed maintenance so accessing the building was difficult. The other thing was the smell was a little disturbing but overall it was a great place and easy to walk around and have as a living access point in Iceland!
Kitchen and dining area good and clean. Staff very approachable and willing to help. Location is very near to grocery stores Bonus and Extra. Also, very near Hallgrimskirkja.
My first stay here. Have been many other places in Reykjavik and this was quite nice for the price. Convenient to BSI and the shopping/eating areas. Next to a pool. Close to the top of reykjavik with good views.
The staff for check in was wonderful, he came with me to confirm where I parked was ok. The entrance was around the back which was confusing, there are 2 different hostels in the building. It is very close to the church and the main downtown. The bed and linens were comfortable and was lovely to see a towel. Iceland is expensive and this was the most I have ever paid for a hostel! Still a fantastic 1 day layover, I will be back!

Typical Hostel setup
Typical hostel, but hotel prices (welcome to Iceland). Bare minimum in rooms. Shared bathrooms/toilets also pretty basic. No place for clothing, hooks broken off. Shared kitchen with everything needed. Not really any lounge area.
DONT take room 305, next to lift and lift room, u cv an hear it all night and other aise toilets.
Other than thaz great place clean, roomy and nice kitchen,good wifi and in middle of town, 5 min walk zo Rainbow Rd and 5 min to Church.
As a solo traveler for a week in Iceland, I really felt safe at Barons hostel! There were plenty of showers and bathrooms that were always kept spotless, everyone was respectful of shared spaces and nighttime was so quiet by 9pm on everyday! Within walking distance to tour bus stops, rainbow street and plenty of places to eat or get groceries. Don’t forget to check out the public pools next door! I only wish that people maybe didn’t camp out in the kitchen during busy meal times, sometimes there wasn’t a space to eat while others worked on computers or just socialized. Otherwise absolutely fantastic stay and I highly recommend!

Pretty good. Wish they offered slippers as that would've been convenient.
