Top Downtown Reykjavik Hotel Reviews

Exeter Hotel

8/10 Good

"This hotel was great for the price. The rooms were small and dark but clean. My favorite part"

Reykjavik Residence Apartment Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I genuinely never leave reviews, but for this experience, I had to. Ayla was incredibly helpful throughout my stay. The hotel was very clean, the check in process was smooth, and Ayla went above and beyond during checkout to make sure I made it to my flight on time. She was quick to respond, attentive to detail, and truly made the experience stress-free. Honestly, she made my first trip to Iceland such a great experience, and I would definitely visit again and book with Reykjavik Residence!!!"

Center Hotels Arnarhvoll

8/10 Good

"Good location, nice property, convenient to walk for shopping and dining. Room was nice and adequate, our only issue was there was a narrow tub in restroom with a shower pointed from one side. There was a hinged glass partition separating the shower from the commode. Problem was, the glass naturally stopped in a position outside of the tub. This made it difficult to impossible to shower without flooding the bathroom. We asked for a solution to this and front desk said they would send someone to correct it, but nothing changed. We ended up wedging a hairbrush to hold the glass within the boundary of the tub and still had a decent amount of water escape."

City Center Hotel

8/10 Good

"I booked this hotel due to the pictures in line of the walk in showers. There wasn’t one in our room. We had a deep tub that was hard for me to get in/out of as I have bad knees. We requested two beds, but there were none available when we checked in. There were no Kleenex in the room. The location was excellent near shops and restaurants. The staff were very helpful."
