Compare 4 airports near Kopavogur
For most travelers, Reykjavik Domestic Airport (RKV) is the most convenient choice, as it sits just 3.05 km from the center and offers rapid connections via local bus or taxi; note that it is not technically in Kópavogur, though it serves the capital region. Keflavík International Airport (KEF) is the primary international gateway, located in the neighboring city of Keflavík. While much farther away, it is well-connected by frequent airport shuttles that stop directly in Kópavogur. The other two airports, Vestmannaeyjar Airport (VEY) and Bildudalur Airport (BIU), are located in remote neighboring towns and are served almost exclusively by domestic flights; travelers choosing these should expect long, multi-stage journeys involving road transport or ferries to reach Kópavogur. For practical travel, rely on the Strætó bus network for urban connections and book private shuttles or taxis in advance for longer distances, as public transit frequency drops significantly outside the capital area.

Good location, suitable for self-driving. Can cook by yourself, opposite is the cheap supermarket bonus. But after all, it is not a hotel, and there is a slight lack of service. I will get off work at 5 o'clock in the afternoon. If it is late, I must contact in advance to get the room card.FromUS$93

I have nothing to say, I highly recommend it, there are several advantages: 1. Although it does not contain breakfast, the pots and pans are all full, you can do it, and you can eat well; 2. The problem is coming, what do you do? Shopping? The road is opposite to the supermarket, and there are supermarkets around, everything is there; 3. The location is not in the city, but the road within 4 kilometers, the basic self-driving here, so there is no problem; 4. The airport is closer than the city, and it will be fast in a while.FromUS$86

Hotel room facilities are old, the bath water is very difficult to adjust, hot and cold is not easy to master; bedding is older, and not too clean; we booked a trip in a triple room, the family does not have to squeeze on a bed, but it is good to sleep I have a feeling. The location of the hotel is on the outskirts of the capital and there are no alternative, decent restaurants around, unless you drive to the city centre to eat. The only unexpected highlight was breakfast, which exceeded expectations.FromUS$128

This is a small hotel located outside the capital of Iceland. The only advantage is that there is a cheap pig supermarket next to the hotel. It is convenient for shopping and the room is small. It is not recommended. The sheets are not changed. Reykjavik should live in the city center, dining is convenient, Vietnam 🇻🇳 restaurants are many.FromUS$101

I was exhausted when I arrived. I had to call the host to figure out how to get in, as there was no key, just a door code. The garage entrance was narrow, and you only had one minute to enter before the door automatically closed – it almost hit my car. Then I had to take an elevator upstairs. While it felt secure, having to go through several doors was a hassle. The location looked close to the main road on the map, but in reality, you had to take a detour, which was inconvenient. The room was quite spacious, but they only provided coffee without milk or sugar, which significantly detracted from the experience. The host's English wasn't great. The price wasn't cheap compared to a hotel.FromUS$105

The hotel is located in the southeast corner of the city, so it's not in the central area but convenient for airport access. The room is spacious enough, and the TV can connect to your phone for screen mirroring, which is quite handy. Breakfast is quite simple, consisting of all cold food. Overall, it offers decent value for money.FromUS$108
