Alba Guesthouse was a great choice for our visit! It was clean, comfortable, affordable, and offered a great breakfast every morning which was very cost saving for our trip. The hostess made fresh bread every morning that was delicious. The beds were comfortable and warm, and it was quiet at night and easy to sleep. The hostess was extremely helpful and caring, even giving my husband a dry pair of boots for the day after his boots got soaked on a glacier hike. It was obvious that she was passionate about her work and wanted everyone to have a quality experience. She even alerted us to a volcanic eruption that happened so that we could walk up the hill and view it from the Perlan Museum. We were all safe, and it was a once in a lifetime experience we would have otherwise missed. It was conveniently located within 4 minute walk to Bus Hostel Terminal where Airport Direct Buses and Bus Tours Iceland operates. It was also only a 20 minute walk to the church in the heart of downtown. You can’t find a better place than this! I highly recommend Alba Guesthouse!

Very good location, very nice host. The breakfasts were good. Parking for guests. In the room you could hear what was happening in the corridor, you could refresh the bathroom for guests. There is a fridge for guests in the facility.

The owner is very kind, he helped us with late check-in, and the house was clean and organized. It was a great experience, definetely recommended and hope to get back soon! We even saw the aurora from the front garden of the house, very easy to locate, specially if you are taking the flybus from the airport, or if you are going on a tour.

The hosts are very kind, polite and ready to guide and help, if it is necessary. They are always somewhere near because they live there as well. Unfortunately, our room was quite moist, sometimes cold and the bed was inconvenient. Anyway, thank you for breakfast and WiFi, which was included in the price.

This trip was amazing. Alba Guesthouse was a very nice accommodation. The breakfast was delicious. What a spread! And we were able to watch the fireworks for New Years Eve on their outdoor porch. Such gracious hosts!! They made us feel very welcome. Very much enjoyed. Very much recommend.

Wonderful residence for tourists right in the heart of Reykjavik. Everything is within walking distance, but the bus stop is also near, and it has ample parking space. Clean, tidy, quiet, and with the best breakfast in the world. I’d definitely recommend and come back for more!
