We had a nice stay. Our room fit our 1 night need with a family of 4. A little noisy as we were on the first floor and it was Saturday night. That said check in and departure were seamless. Location is EXCELLENT right in the middle of midborough and close to everything.

Lovely Downtown Hotel

The room was very nice and cozy. The beds were nice as well. It had all the amenities you would need for a comfortable stay. The lobby and restaurant were lovely. My only complaint would be shades to block out light. Since we went and it was light outside 24/7, i think they could have done better with the shades. Our room was never dark.

We travelled in Iceland for 6 days , and I have to say we had the most spacious rooms at Kvosin. Traveling in Iceland is interesting. Most rooms have 2 single/twin beds, which they can put together as a double, or keep separated. But each twin is honestly too small for share with a kid. Most hotels also mention they can’t accommodate a cot in the room due to fire code. So it’s challenging to find a room for 2 adults and 1 kid. The room we had at kvosin has a living area with a sofa bed in addition to the bedroom. This worked out perfect for us. I think this is a very good option for a family traveling together and don’t want to pay for 2 separate hotel rooms.

Great place to kick off an Iceland vacation!

This was the perfect way to kick off our trip in Iceland. Prior to our stay, I asked for an early check-in. Though they could not guarantee it, when we got there quite early (11am) our room was ready. Then, the next day after checkout, they held onto our bags free of charge. Would definitely stay again!

We liked the location and the proximity to all the shopping and restaurants. The hotel is very nice and clean. We especially liked that it wasn't a chain hotel were every room looks the same. The staff was very friendly. We would highly recommend this hotel.

Right off the main shopping and dining street so it was very quiet. Beautiful deck and nice hotel bar/ restaurant if needed. Parking was hard to find initially navigating our car, but if we just had a shuttle or something from the airport it would have been just fine. Staff was incredibly friendly and room was great. Very clean and convenient in all ways.
