We loved our stay in CityHub. I was little worried of communal bathrooms- but they do a great job keeping in neat. The hotel is located in city center- near to many museums, Harpa, harbour. The hosts are excellent, and I loved that their pub has pay-wall for ordering drinks. You can get them anytime!

The breakfast was my favorite by so far in Iceland due to having smoked fish and Pannukakku along with all the must haves. The personnel was really nice and we really loved the room.

Great stay no complaints! The property was large, great for a small group of 4-6 with great living space and bedroom size. After a day out in Iceland coming back to this apartment was fabulous, was warm and cosy. WiFi was great, shops 2 minute walk away and a 20 minute walk into the center. We hired a car and the apartment comes with parking right outside. Hosts were great at replying and we asked for extra towels and they were here within minutes.

We booked this hotel for 2 separated nights, as we went for a trek in the south coast. First night everything went well, room was clean, checkin was smooth, breakfast very good. My partner used the gym and said it was really well equipped. Location is very close to downtown city centre.

Without a doubt the best places to stay in downtown Reykjavik! You’re in walking distance to explore the city and are in the perfect location to be picked up for any excursions! We rented a car and there was plenty of parking for everyone. The rooms were comfortable and cosy. We absolutely loved the buffet breakfast and the staff were lovely always!

Igdlo Guesthouse is a great option if you’re looking for a simple, cheap and functional place to stay in Iceland. The location of the guesthouse is the main draw here - it’s super close to downtown Reykjavík - incredibly convenient for us as tourists! The check in, and check out, were relatively simple, the rooms fine, and having a communal kitchen was a lovely touch. We were able to cook our own food at multiple points throughout our trip which was a wonderful way of saving money on eating out in town!

Basic, very clean guesthouse in an ideal downtown location for exploring Reykjavik or going on tours. Airport bus outside the door. Clean communal area with facilities for cooking and storing food. Small bedroom with a basin, hanging space and bedside lights had all we required. Shared toilets and shower room very clean and there were never queues. Staff friendly and helpful. Being on the 4th floor it was pretty quiet. Many fancier more expensive places to stay in the city but we found this good value for the price.

The accomodation was clean and the location is really perfect, the BSÍ bus terminal was close by, it's a walking distance to the city centre, plus there are a bunch of day trips where a bus will pick you up directly from the hostel. The rooms, beds and bedding were simple but quite comfortable and clean. There are a lot of bathrooms on every floor so even with the hostel almost full, I never waited too long for one. The kitchenette has everything you need to make a quick. For such a cheap price, this is really an amazing place to stay.

The room quality exceeded our expectations and the facilities were absolutely incredible- everything you could think of was catered for. Brilliant location and close to the hub of downtown city centre and the harbour. Great location for excursion pick ups and airport transfers as well. Amazing bakery and restaurant on site which was an unexpected bonus. Couldn’t have asked for more.
