Our room was on the second floor looking down on the street. There was a rave club across the street that played VERY loud music until 4 or 5 in the morning. It was impossible to get any sleep because of the noise. The staff’s reply: “you know you’re staying in a busy urban area”, as if that was a reason for not being able to sleep in a hotel. The first thing the following morning we requested a new room, and per our conversation with desk staff, we repacked our bags so they could move them in the event they changed our room. The staff “made a note” in our file that we were seeking a room change. When we returned that evening, nothing had been done to get us a new room. The desk agent looked for alternatives, but very clearly told us that a move would not be made to an “upgraded” room, instead offering us a downgrade to a room with 2 twin beds. He had a serious case of indifference…take it or leave it. We elected to make the move because the new room was far enough away from the street to be much quieter. The facility itself was nice. Our schedule did not allow for us to use any amenities other than the rooms (although we did purchase some coffee and snacks from the food area). Because of the unacceptable noise levels, and the indifference of the staff, I would advise others to find an alternative place to stay while in Reykjavik.

nice location

The staff at reception area were courteous and knowledgeable. The breakfast area is good and staff are friendly. But the main problem is the noise in the area. Cannot sleep even if you are so tired. Theirs is no parking lot in the hotel and you need to pay almost $30 for overnight parking structure across the street. Very inconvenient.

great little hotel but the noise did not let us sleep plus we had to close windows making the room quite warm

Despite asking for a quiet room, our room was directly across the street from a nightclub. It seems that the better rooms are given to clients who do not book through Expedia.

Staff was exceptional. The location is walking distance to lots of shops and restaurants. The staff did a great of recommending things to go see.

This is a great location for being in the heart of downtown Reykjavík. It is within walking distance to just about anything you might want to do. The hotel itself is very modern and nice. The staff was outstanding. I will definitely stay here again.

near center of town good shopping near bye
