Airport Guide
Compare 4 airports near Reykjavik
Reykjavik is served by four airports, with Reykjavik Domestic Airport (RKV) being the closest to the city center at just 2.5 kilometers away, offering the fastest and cheapest transit via a 5-minute bus ride. Keflavík International Airport (KEF), located 38.7 kilometers away, is the primary international gateway and offers various shuttle buses like the Flybus, which provide a balanced travel experience. Vestmannaeyjar Airport (VEY) is a regional facility situated 112.3 kilometers from Reykjavik, where visitors primarily rely on local taxis or short walks to reach the town center of the island. Finally, Bildudalur Airport (BIU) is the most remote option at 184.7 kilometers away in the Westfjords, where car rentals are the recommended mode for navigating the long, scenic distance to the capital. There is no metro or train system in Iceland, so ground transport relies exclusively on buses, taxis, and private car rentals. Travelers should note that while public transport is excellent within Reykjavik, remote connections require significantly more planning and typically involve longer travel times by car.

Laugardalur Reykjavik|0.83km from city center
The hotel room wasn't particularly large, but then again, Reykjavik itself doesn't typically offer huge rooms. The biggest perks are definitely the parking availability and its proximity to the supermarket. If you're driving, this place is worth considering, and the price isn't bad either.FromUS$257

While not in the absolute city center, the hotel's facilities, breakfast, and service are all excellent. Getting around is easy: there are several bus routes directly across the street that go downtown. For airport transfers, the Flybus service connects to a shuttle that drops you off right at the hotel. Good day tours and island excursions also provide convenient pick-up and drop-off from the lobby. A majority of the guests are American, and the restaurant primarily offers Western dishes.FromUS$314

Hotel Holt was a fantastic find for us! It is a throwback to days glamore! It is a beautiful facility well maintained and very clean. We loved looking at all the art prices hung through out the Hotel and rooms. It really does give that 50-60s vibe! We even had a real key for our room. Really loved staying there.FromUS$297

I stayed at two hotels in Lei City, and this one had a great location, excellent room facilities, and a fantastic breakfast. They also have beautiful public areas, and all the staff were very friendly. The restaurant staff, in particular, were professional and welcoming, clearing plates promptly. The breakfast quality was high. The only downside was that the curtains didn't fully block out the light.FromUS$444

The only bad thing about this place is that I was only able to stay here 1 night … I had an amazing experience,
the room
Was very spacious and beautiful, great location, but most of all the customers service was over the top ,the young lady at the front desk, Yvette was phenomenal, she went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of, made reservations , and gave me great suggestions and recommendations to where to go to eat .. Please consider stay at this place next time you are in Reykjavik, you will not regret it !!!!FromUS$213

The location is super convenient for city walks to Rainbow Street, the church, and supermarkets. The room was clean and tidy, perfect for cooking as it had basic supplies like oil and black pepper, plus a dishwasher. The front desk service was also very enthusiastic! Just remember that in Iceland, you need to bring your own toiletries and slippers, and there's no razor. Luckily, the supermarket is very close.FromUS$274

The hotel is located in the city center with convenient transportation. The front desk service is very nice. The room is very large, and the mini bar is free on the first day. There is a hot tub and sauna on the basement floor, which is very refreshing before going to bed every day. The breakfast is 5200 Icelandic kronor per person, which is equivalent to 300 RMB per person. The hotel computer system needs to be updated. When I arrived at 8:30 pm that day, the hotel said that I had not paid the room fee. I contacted Ctrip to let me pay first to check in. Ctrip followed up, but when I wanted to pay, the system could not enter the payment...FromUS$509

There will be a bar below the hotel. There will be a band singing from 8:00 to 11:00 in the evening. In fact, the sound is quite loud, which will have a certain impact on people who fall asleep. The room is very large. We arrived at 5:00 on the day of check-in. The hotel has not been cleaned. This is a very bad stay experience. Normally, we can check in at 3:00, we waited for two or three more hours outside,Amazing110 Reviews

I chose a room with a kitchen, which was pretty good. It had an induction cooker and bar stools, so I could cook simple dishes. There was no kettle, but there was a coffee machine.
I had to wash the dishes myself to make it convenient for the next customer. Because I couldn't ensure that the previous customer had washed them very clean, I also recommended that everyone rinse the dishes themselves before using them.FromUS$342

空間充足的apartment，像家的感覺，跟照片是一樣，乾淨企理。廚房有點光線不足，煮飯有點困難。地點是可以的，從bus stop 14走路5分鐘，但要上斜坡，推行李有點吃力。是self check in的，我們找我們的apartment的門口時用了一些時間，最後要call他們才找到。Apartment要上樓梯，拿着重的行李會有點吃力。FromUS$325

I loved this hotel and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it! One of the outstanding features is that they give you a cell phone to use during your stay. The phone already has helpful apps installed for taxis, restaurants, etc. We are from the US so did not have international cell service so having this phone with us was helpful, especially for using maps. Reykjavik is a walkable city, and the hotel is located on the most popular street, so it has easy access to everything. The staff was very helpful and there is also a bar/restaurant onsite with amazing cocktails. There is an included breakfast buffet which featured hot and cold items. We had a room on the 4th floor that included access to large patio. We loved this feature as we could wake up and go outside to check the weather and enjoy the views of the mountains and water in the distance. The hotel was also extremely clean. Another nice touch was that they knew we were celebrating our wedding anniversary so when we entered our room, we found a bottle of wine, chocolate and romantic decorations!FromUS$338

Laugardalur Reykjavik|1.22km from city center
This hotel was the most satisfying I stayed at in Iceland. The overall cleanliness was up to standard, and it even had a bathtub. The staff were enthusiastic, and the breakfast was rich and varied. The biggest advantage is that Bus Stop 12 is right outside the door. If you're in Iceland and not doing a multi-day tour, but rather booking different day tours daily, Bus Stop 12 is a station all buses can reach, which is incredibly convenient! Highly recommended.FromUS$260

Overall, I enjoyed the stay, but the fact that walls are paper thick and your next door room people alarm can wake you up is annoying. Also, the sound of the wind bashing against the room window (6 floor) was annoying too. Location is the definitively the best.FromUS$280
