Book Reykjavik hotels

You want to go to Europe, but Prague is so last year, and everyone does the “cities of Italy” thing. Never fear: There’s one place you might not know about. Reykjavik, Iceland, has quite the reputation—a good reputation. From Northern Lights to legendary nightlife, hotels in Reykjavik will introduce you to the surprise best holiday you’ve ever had.

Things to Do in Reykjavik

Holiday packages to Reykjavik are popular with the bucket-list crowd, because seeing the Northern Lights is at the top of more than a few of those lists. Take a day trip to Seltjarnarnes, a township on the city’s western peninsula, to see mohawk-wearing terns and hilarious puffins, then stick around for the great lightshow in the sky.

The Northern Lights aren’t the only nightlife here, of course. Reykjavik’s main street, Laugavegur, is famous—or infamous, depending on who you ask. Tip: After a few shots is the perfect time to try svio. It’s a sheep’s head, and you’ll just have to find out the rest on your own. You’ll surely be dreaming of bacon and buttered toast after that experience, so check out our Edinburgh hotels and plan on a layover in Scotland on your way home.

Getting To & Around Reykjavik

Keflavik International Airport (KEF), which sees most of the country’s international traffic, is about 50km from Reykjavik hotels in downtown. Don’t worry about getting there, though. It won’t seem far when you hop on your hotel shuttle or the Airport Express bus. Better yet, book one of the great car hire deals on lastminute.co.nz and you can explore all of the geysers, waterfalls and glaciers that Iceland is known for at your own pace.
