A great location and fab property for a family stay. Small kitchen to be able to do a bit of hike made food if needed and a fridge. It has a lovely bathroom and we had a great view across the lake. Everywhere was very accessible and we loved the happy hour!

Email explains all about included breakfast in 2 emails, only to be told when we arrived that we did not have breakfast included. Decorative blankets and visible duvets had large very visible stains on the beds.

I loved everything about this property. The cleanliness was out of this world. The breakfast buffet and the staff could not have been better. Plus our room ended up being this little private room across a walkway. That was just nothing what I thought it would be.We will definitely be back to stay here.

It was fantastic! Fantastic room, great beds, great livingroom, nice balconies, very nice staff. The location is also perfect, in the centrum of the city. We have a car, we could park right outside the front door. It is public parking (paid parking). Everything was perfect. We will come here again next time we’re in Reykjavík.
