Skinnastadur Vacation Packages

Excellent location outside downtown Reykjavik, free parking with convenient road and bus links nearby and for local facilities. Comfortable, clean, spacious room, nice breakfast, friendly and helpful staff.

Great place to stay

A bit of a walk to center of town. Convenient bakery attached was good.

It was definitely a luxury experience unlike most stays I've ever done, 10/10 no notes on the hotel itself, the staff and amenities were bespoke. Breakfast was custom made to my liking and brought on a cart in the morning at a time of my choosing. Unbelievably good food and the lady working the desk was very charming. Word of caution, however: it is the highest up apartment in the entire city, maybe the entire country and the hotel is limited to the private access top floor of a new skyscraper of mostly corporate offices. At night, it was likely that my (city facing/partial ocean view) hotel room was the only one lit up in the tower and since the walls --including the bathroom-- are all glass, everything inside rather stands out and there no real privacy without curtains drawn. At some point, shortly after returning back at around midnight, someone somewhere in the city who noticed my arrival to the hotel room started blasting the apartment with a high powered laser pointer until I closed the curtains. That aside, it was a remarkably nice stay, the only concern is that its wildly ostentatious for better or for worse and maybe the locals aren't too pleased with that haha. I would stay here again.

Absolutely great. The pictures don’t do the property justice. Very spacious, spotless clean, totally fell in love with the floors. The sauna and tub were spectacular, got some amazing aurora views while relaxing in both. The neighborhood was great, with multiple stores like Bónus just a few minutes away. The owner was super friendly. Would definitely stay here again.

The staff was very helpful. Walked us to our room and showed us where to park. The room was cozy and comfortable. A hot tub right outside our door! Very convenient. It's drained each night, so also it's very clean. The views of the river while relaxing in the water were the BEST. The breakfast was delicious and there were so many great choices. Would highly recommend.

Hotel is in a great location in Reykjavik. Walking distance to all the main attractions, and plenty of good restaurants and bakeries nearby. Also really useful for public transport or for getting picked up for tours, with a main bus stop right outside the hotel. A good selection of food was provided for breakfast, and there’s a nice bar attached to the hotel that does a decent happy hour (very important with the drink prices in Iceland lol). Only drawback was the toilet door - it was a sliding door and it didn’t close all the way over. So just something to bear in mind, depending on who you are travelling with and how comfortable you are with each other.
