High quality apartment. Quiet, comfy beds. Washer and dryer included. Convenient location. Only small improvement would be to have Netflix available on the TV.

Positives? Too many to mention. Negatives? Only one... the funny water smell, however this is something all residences suffer from in Iceland (due to the geothermal water supply)
The staff were especially helpful, having a garage was very helpful and despite the central location very easy to drive to. Wife and daughter loved it too.
Would stay here again 10/10

The views and amenities for this place are amazing. The apartment had absolutely everything you could want. The host was very happy to show us around and made us feel very welcome. The hot tub was just the "icing on the cake" for us - many thanks.
I have never slept in such a comfy bed!!
I would highly recommend both apartment & location x

Breakfast was amazing! They had everything to offer from pastries, fruit, porridge, cheese and meats and the regular English breakfast items like beans, bacon, sausage and eggs. Fill up on breakfast before you leave as food In Reykjavik is pricy!
Rooms were very comfortable and the beds were so good! Had some of the best nights sleep.
This hotel is really close to the BSI terminal and a 15 min walk along the main road so don’t pay for the extra transfer walk it and you can take in the sights...

Lovely, small hotel. Rooms modern, stylish, very warm and wonderfully clean. Staff were incredibly helpful and attentive - nothing was too big or small for their kind attention, efficient. Continental breakfast plentiful and fresh, tea and coffee available in small but stylish lounge 24/7.
I want to go back in the summer and will book this hotel again and have no hesitation in recommending it to all my friends.

We had a fabulous time here. Room was clean and had everything provided you could possibly need.
Breakfast was amazing- ample for breakfast ans snacks for lunch too! I don’t think we ever managed to finish it on any of the days we stayed!
Check in was seamless with all the info we needed.
Would stay here again without a doubt.

Johanna who runs the apartments was the most helpful person ever, she went above and beyond I cannot thank her enough. The apartments were modern, spacious, clean & had everything you need such as cooking facilities which is a must in Iceland how expensive eating out is. A supermarket and bakery is across the road also a pizza takeaway. If you forget anything there is a box in reception to help you out. The huge windows looks over the mountains which is truly spectacular. A little bit out from...

Immaculately presented and well located city centre hotel. Plenty of bars and restaurants nearby offering both comfort food and more traditional Icelandic cuisine. Breakfast buffet was amply sized which set us up nicely for our day trips. Room was comfortable and suitably warm. Housekeeping always ensured it was well presented with what seemed like a million cushions each time we returned in the evening. Although we didn’t drink there, the bar looked cosy, and had a warming fire each time we...

We had a fantastic stay and only wish we could have stayed longer! The place was peaceful, relaxing, and perfect for unwinding. The complimentary breakfast was a lovely bonus, especially enjoyed with the beautiful view. The staff were all friendly and welcoming, making our stay even more enjoyable. We'd happily stay here again and highly recommend it!

The hotel’s location and facilities were excellent. Beautifully styled throughout including a fantastic spa.
All the staff were very helpful and friendly and would like to mention Wadim and Assad on reception for their excellent recommendations and service

Hotel was picturesque, clean, located nearer the harbour part of town which meant it was quiet, but near enough to use the bus or walk into town. Small grocery shop next door.
Property also had a cafebar within.
Reception staff were helpful. More of a place for adults, but you could say that about the whole city.
