The Reykjavik Edition

Miðborg Reykjavik|0.54km from Reykjavík's City Hall
Most probably the best hotel in Reykjavik, modern, new, everything in great condition and with a great location. That being said it is a very expensive hotel even for Icelandic standards. So let me start with the highlights of this hotel: - Very comfortable and great materials condition. - AC with individual room adjustable temperature is a great plus for Iceland. - I got the basic room and it felt big enough, modern and super clean. The bathroom was also big but there was no bathtub unfortunately. Great comfortable bed and sheets. - Le Labo bath products are truly amazing. One of the best I ever tried! I also appreciated that for ecologic reasons they weren't in non reusable small plastic bottles. - The rooms are silent and relaxing. I would change the black TV furniture as black always highlight the dust on it.. even when the room is nicely cleaned. - The breakfast is big and overall with good quality. But daily variation should be bigger. - The location is perfect to stroll along the shops and walking distance to the most important city spots. - The spa is beautiful and very interesting. Probably the most well designed small spa in a city hotel I have ever seen. Complimentary use of the spa is a very nice touch indeed. Although it was a really good expericence in no way this was a perfect stay specially when the price tag is considered: - The hall and corridors cleaning left too much to be desirable. At least at 3rd floor corridor there was dust, earth and stains that remained for the whole 3 night stay. It is strange as the rooms are really well cleaned (maybe it's a different team? maybe someone forgot that the corridors are also to be cleaned?). - The reception. It is always busy and sometimes feels chaotic at the proper hotel entrance. I also felt that some guest were treated differently and with more care. I got no welcome drink or even the suggestion to leave the bags. That's ok for me but then I realized the guest next to me was immediately offered all of this. I mean.. consistency is important at this level. - Hidden fees. Ok maybe it was a misunderstanding but when we arrived we were told that the hotel had valet parking only. But nobody told us the extortion each night of it. At the chekout there it was though. Also in the breakfast there was no specific tag with the champagne price but after I filled a glass with it a waiter quickly send me the bill to sign. I mean it is very bad to mix not included stuff in the buffet. Also every egg besides the scramble had a price tag. I mean for almost 700 euros a night is it reasonable to charge for a egg toast?. - The room curtains. Beautifull but totally off for iceland summer status (2-3hours of darkness). Light comes in in every curtain fold so it is impossible to cover it. Every night I woke up several times due to too much outdoor light in the rooms. This should be quickly addressed. It honestly really bothered me. - The spa only opens at 12h00 meaning you cannot use it

Kvosin Downtown Hotel
4.6/5104 Reviews
Miðborg
We really enjoyed our “bigger” room as a family of 4. Very spacious, modern and has nice lighting. The kitchen island was brilliant as we were able to let the kids make their dinner while we went out to a lovely restaurant nearby. The location is perfect for the charming old downtown area. It’s only 5 minutes to the downtown airport if you are flying out domestic. They have some parking right in front, which isn’t the case for other high end hotels downtown. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Would absolutely stay again!

Perfect hotel in the prefect location, the hotel reception were very friendly and very helpful, the rooms were modern with the most comfortable bed you will ever sleep in.

Radisson Blu 1919 Hotel Reykjavik
4.1/589 Reviews
Miðborg
This hotel is the perfect location for a visit to Reykjavik. The main shopping street and many restaurants are within walking distance, as well as the old wharf where the whale watching ships are located. The staff was great, the coffee house excellent. Make sure to get a superior room; the second time we stayed we were not given that type of room and it was smaller and on the noisier side of the hotel. On the weekends, the bars close at 4:30 am, so there is much partying going on!
Hotel Holt - The Art Hotel
4.5/5125 Reviews
Miðborg
I think Hotel Holt is a nice boutique hotel with all you need. It’s small but all details and needs are being catered. Hotel management is running it with heart which you can see in many aspects. I think this hotel. We didn’t have the breakfast so can’t comment on it but overall experience is good. The price is a bit pricey but it’s okay as we are in city centre. Well located and just a few minutes walk to the Main Street. And the best overall, they have car park and it’s free….
Ice Apartments Reykjavik by Heimaleiga
4.5/558 Reviews
Miðborg
I traveled to Iceland with my fiance and our toddler and used this as our home base for the week. We really wanted a place with a kitchen and a place for us to hang out after his early bedtime, so this apartment was perfect for that. We were able to make many of our meals in, use the washer dryer (thankfully manuals for all appliances were in one of the kitchen drawers), and hang out in the living room while he slept in the bedroom. The location of this place is great - right on the main street. I agree with the reviews that the provided directions could be a little better. Basically look for the small tunnel next to the IceMart that's right at the bottom of the Rainbow Street and go through it, and there you are! This is not a luxury hotel, as some other reviews seem to have expected, but it's a perfectly serviceable and clean apartment in a great location. Cons: No on-site parking. We had no problems finding free parking by the school near Hallgrimskirja and walking, and we also quickly loaded and unloaded in the parking lot right on premises (which I think is for the restaurant and that's why you can't park there). MINOR concern because I brought my own- The bathroom only had sets of shampoo and conditioner, no body wash. Pros: Self check in was easy and allowed us to check in early in the morning upon arrival (we booked the evening before to ensure we could check in). The location is great. We didn't find it to be too loud, but had brought a small sound machine from home for the baby so that might have something to do with it. We loved having a washer/dryer and dishwasher and small kitchen to use. The shower has GREAT water pressure!!! We loved the clean and bright Kronan grocery store right around the corner. Overall this was a great stay and I would return to this location!
