Top National Museum of Iceland Hotel Reviews

CityHub Reykjavik

10/10 Excellent

"love it! :) perfect for solo travel"

Reykjavik Residence Apartment Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay"

KEX Hotel and Hostel Reykjavik

8/10 Good

"Decent hostel. No complaints. I would stay here again"

Grandi by Center Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience! No hiccups! Very helpful staff, clean room and shower. Clean hotel overall and convient to so many sights, restaurants and shops. I highly recommend and would stay again!"

Alda Hotel Reykjavik

10/10 Excellent

"We loved Alda Hotel. Central to everything and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again."

Alva Hotel Brautarholt

8/10 Good

"This hotel was decent enough and did everything I needed - clean, quiet and a basic breakfast included. While it worked fine with the access codes etc, the absence of any staff at all on site was slightly odd and made the whole experience feel a little impersonal. I value having someone to speak to in person if I have questions or need anything."

City Center Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was easy to find and only steps away from downtown. No parking but there was a parking lot around the corner. Easy to access. Rooms were clean and comfortable. It was located on a busy street so if you are sensitive to noise it might bother you. The bars are open until 3 am. We kept the windows closed and fell straight to sleep. Didn’t bother us. I would recommend it for the price."

Hotel Von

10/10 Excellent

"Centrally located and comfortable bed. Everything needed for a few nights stay."

Center Hotels Plaza

10/10 Excellent

"Great location with all the basics and breakfast as well. Everything is in walking distance, including many tours. If you get the before check in, there's ample luggage storage."
