Excellent experience ! Great location ! Very enjoyable stay . Eclectic unique experience .

Our 2 families enjoyed staying at this home which was smack in the middle of town - easy walk to restaurants, shops, and museums. The owners were friendly and responsive. The historic home is modernized but there were some old home inconveniences such as a low ceiling on the narrow stairs and an attic toilet you had to bend down to get on, but as long as you can maneuver through that plus the lack of a microwave and the city noises, you'll enjoy your stay at this property. Comfy beds, large kitchen, and fun decor. I would stay here again for sure!

Our stay was perfection! Thora’s home is so beautiful—and centrally located for walking around town. It also happens to be less than a block away from the best bakery on the planet, BakaBaka. :) It was the perfect amount of space for our group of 10…such attention to detail in each room and such character (especially the kitchen!) We will definitely be back!

The location of this beautiful, historic home couldn’t be better. We were able to walk to fun shopping and great restaurants. The interior of the home is charming with beautiful original wood floors and staircase. It is however modernized in every important way. The kitchen has everything you might need to make a gourmet meal. The bathrooms are so pretty with excellent water pressure. I can’t think of anything I might do to improve our stay. It was all I could have hoped for!! I recommend this accommodation without reservation. Thank you!

The location, the decor, the communication… all great. Thank you for giving us a great local experience.

The house is absolutely wonderful! It fitted our group very well, was very spacious and beautiful. The kitchen was ideal for cooking and overall we could not have been happier with our choice. The location is perfect. Close to everything; grocery store, restaurants, bakery and everything else you need. It is located in a residential area with so much character. It really gives an authentic experience. Thora was a great communicator and went above and beyond to assist us in every way. Can’t recommend this gorgeous downtown villa highly enough!

This property was everything we were hoping for and more! The hosts were very responsive throughout the whole experience and allowed us to stay an extra night when our flight got cancelled due to weather. The home was beautifully eclectic and had so much charm. Perfect distance to all of Reykjaviks downtown restaurants, shopping, and bus stop pick up/drop off locations for tours and airport transfers. Awesome dinner recommendations too. Highly, highly recommend!! Hope to come back some day.

One of the oldest homes in Reykjavík, the home is thoughtfully updated to include modern conveniences while preserving its 19th century charm. Our family of five were comfortable in this home, which is easy walking distance to all the shops and restaurants. There is a private/dedicated parking spot which seems to be a rare offering in Reykjavík. The hosts were great - we were met by the husband Volundur, who was thoughtful enough to provide a bag of ice for my wife, who had sustained a broken wrist earlier in our travels. A wonderful bowl of fresh fruit awaited us upon our arrival. Volundur is an accomplished former chef and author - look for a couple of intriguing books authored by Volundur in the house. A great base to explore Iceland!
