Good location with nice views of the water. Nice lounge on the top floor with great views. Everything was good for the cost with the only issue being the impractical shower which was a quarter glass and was nearly impossible to shower without getting water everywhere. Also no storage in our room so ww lived out of suitcases. Otherwise all good.

Conveniently located near downtown. P3 parking zone close by. Comfortable and clean room. Only downside was sulphur water which made bathroom experience less than optimal. Otherwise great spot hopefully they fix the water situation.

Lovely and accomodating

This was my first trip to Iceland and I went solo, which can be intimidating, but they made me feel safe and comfortable. What truly set them over the top was the emails I received prior to my arrival allowing me to set up seamless transport to and from the airport which takes off one extra worry. They also give you a list of different tours and activities you can do in the area. The rooftop bar has a beautiful view of the waterfront, even in the rain, and the spa is a must!

When you step into the hotel, the carpet was pretty dirty. The room is really small and has a weird smell. Overall experience is not that pleasant.

The staff were very friendly. I would suggest they have more staff available when cruises are embarking and disembarking. The two young ladies were overwhelmed by guests checking in and checking out simultaneously. Great location for dining, shopping and sightseeing.

Location for everything in the city is perfect. The staff were great and we were very lucky to get a parking space from the 6 available. Our only issue was the temperature of the room. During the day, it was roasting, and only by late evening was it just about ok to be comfortable for sleeping. I would say we could have opened the windows, but being on the 6th floor, they were locked shut.
