Top National and University Library of Iceland Hotel Reviews

Hotel Odinsve

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel Odinsve was a great place to stay in Reykjavik. The staff was friendly and helpful. Room was a bit small compared to US hotels I've stayed at but that seems to be the norm in European countries. Not a show stopper tho, the room was very clean and comfortable. Location is great for getting around Reykjavik & Tour bus stop was about 3 blocks away which was very convenient. Buffet breakfast was served each morning at Snap's Bistro adjacent to hotel. Great stay, would highly recommend the hotel."

CityHub Reykjavik

Reykjavik Residence Apartment Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay"

KEX Hotel and Hostel Reykjavik

8/10 Good

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."
