    Perfect and magnificent location to all the major downtown Reykjavik sights, and nice warm bedrooms. Based not far from shops and restaurants as well as the harbour. A lounge, good blackout curtains, and a kettle available in the apartment. Great views, plentiful and savoury breakfast with juice and cheeses and meat.

    Charming old hotel in a charming old historic style building. What a marvellous and stunning location in walking distance to the BSI bus station! Also - so close to all the major sights of Reykjavik. Neat units by the garden and outstandingly accommodating staff. A small mini fridge, a lounge area, and a safe available.
