Great location! Easy to get to. Rooms were clean and nice
2.0 / 5.0
I made a good choice considering it was my first trip to Iceland and I picked it from online choices based on reviews. I was not disappointed. Before I arrived, staff from the hotel assisted me in arranging my transfer from the airport to the hotel and my tours during my visit. Then the hotel staff on site helped me complete my currency exchange and book my transfer back to the airport.

Last night in Iceland, just needed a hotel room. Comfy bed, small shower. Would be ok as a base for exploring this part of Iceland

We found the room to be quite spacious and included a small living/sitting room area. Nice that the room had a mini fridge as well. No complaints during our stay. The staff was friendly and helpful.

The staff was extremely helpful, friendly and knowledgeable!
The property is very basic, but it was clean and convenient to downtown.

Not a fan of this hotel or the staff. Parking was absolutely horrible. The site said they have parking. It is extremely limited. There were 4 parking spots in P3 and the rest was unavailable due to construction. I would say the only thing I enjoyed was the location.

2.0 / 5.0
The hotel is at a good place but it was disappointing that there was no free parking next to the hotel. we had to take the car away from the hotel to find a space for free. In the room no dedicated space for shoes and jackets, no fridge and the shower head is a fixed one that is just not convenient. on the other hand the hotel is easy to find and on a good location, we managed to find several restaurants in the area. Staff was also friendly.
2.5 / 5.0
Location is excellent. Near shopping, restaurants, transportation, and waterfront. Breakfast is a highlight with broad spectrum of offerings…meats, cheeses, juices, coffees, pastries, fruits, cereals, etc. The skyr was particularly good. The room is clean, efficient and very comfortable. Cleaning is at the occupants option when needed. Pleasant staff.

Fosshotel Baron is fine for a reasonably priced stay in Reykjavik. It was clean, the staff was pleasant and helpful. They do not have a restaurant but do serve (self service) a good hot and cold breakfast. They are not far from restaurants - within less than 15 minute walk. The fancier restaurants are farther downtown. My room was very simple. There is a flat-screen tv, coffee maker and a hair dryer. The bathroom was interesting - supplied with a squeegee which I wondered about at first. The shower is not separated and the floor wasn't slanted toward the drain so nearly half the bathroom floor gets wet. Really wet.They need to put some kind of short barrier in. For a traveler like myself who doesn't require a great deal of amenities, the hotel was fine. I do wish they had a restaurant.

Nice hotel with walkable distance to the Sun Voyager and other Reykjavik spots. Convenient Dominoes opposite to the hotel and a convenience store behind it. Parking is unfortunately paid but you have the highest tier parking option and free street parking close by

It's a bit of an older hotel, but it is nice and clean, with friendly and helpful staff. The location is very convenient, right in the heart of downtown, making it easy to walk, shop, and dine at nearby restaurants. The staff can arrange easy transportation to the airport. I would definitely stay there again on my next visit.

It was adequate for a last night in Iceland before heading to the airport. A little outdated, but the staff were great, the breakfast was good, and it was an quick walk to restaurants, etc.

This hotel is very centrally located and was great for us. We did not have a car and were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. The hotel is older but very well kept.

Nobody did housekeeping.
They cgarged ne $24 per day for breakfast, telling your room did not incluude that, which is very wrong. I had breakfast includrd checkbox sekected, and choosing rooms ot was just bed options. Breakfast was goid but exactly same everyday. Front desk was not helpful upon asking directions and for early chexkin.its at one end of main street and across sun voyager, so location is not central but good. I think its okay, and room and comfort not worth the price they charged.

Well located hotel, comfortable rooms. It was just a quick one night overnight, so I didn't have a chance to use any of the facilities. But the staff were great (Muhammad on front desk especially) in helping to provide information and making transportation arrangements.

The family suite is a great option for families traveling with children
