Very helpful and friendly staff. Oli was super nice! Great location. Everything is a short walk away. Only reason for three stars instead of five, is the bloody bathroom design. There’s no door and the toilet is in a glass cube basically in the bedroom. No privacy whatsoever. It was also bit noisy when the night club was plying music but this was rather reasonable on the third floor on the opposite side. Not sure how noisy it gets in other rooms.
Awesome hotel! Convenient location, an easy walk to all sorts of food, drinks, and shopping. Great sauna and hot tub on the basement level, along with a nice gym.
The front desk staff were super helpful, as was the bartender.
The room was clean and comfortable. The bed, linens, and pillows were perfect.
Parking was limited, but close.
Beautifully designed rooms and a fantastic location and view (if you get the bay side rooms). Food options were expensive so suggest going to the town for alternatives. Walking distance to major Reykjavik attractions.
Note as a Marriott platinum, you do not get free breakfast per the Marriott manual.
Lucy was hostess and so helpful with taxis reservations and all the other things that occur during travels. Room was quiet during week and slept with windows open for the night air. No loud noise or traffic noise. Bed comfortable and breakfast was good.
We stopped here for 1 night and really enjoyed it,rooms are a bit small,bed so comfortable and cosy pillows were so bouncy,would stop here again if we come back to Iceland.
Absolutely ridiculous noise levels for a $600/night rate. The club downstairs was so loud - we couldn’t even drown it out with our white noise machine. You will not get sleep if you stay here. Additionally, for a country with 24/7 sunlight in the summer, they sure haven’t figured out black out shades. Bring an eye mask.
The location is the best part of this hotel. The room was spacious but the bathroom area is not suitable for anyone other than couples traveling together. There is no bathroom door and there is a glass shower and toilet area with mirrors along the full wall. The room was extremely noisy most of the night as it is near a busy area and a bar/nightclub. You will need to use earplugs. There were several staff that were unfriendly and rude but others that were nice. If you have a car, parking is very limited with only 5 parking spots allocated to the hotel. There was no availability when we arrived and the staff were rude about the situation and told us to find parking somewhere around town on the street. When asked for help they weren’t forthcoming on questions about how to use the parking meter or helpful with questions about the street signs for parking. The parking meter is finicky and you have to proactively go during parking hours to pay and it doesn’t let you set times in specific intervals. We ended up using an app the following day which charges a service fee. You have to get a hotel parking pass to park in the parking lot but it seemed meaningless as there were 3 cars without a hotel parking pass and they didn’t seem to care or willing to do anything about it. As a Marriott Bonvoy member that was meaningless at this hotel (no mention of it whatsoever).
Absolutely unacceptable that they could not give me a refund or switch my dates. The person on the phone got my dates wrong and they said they couldn't do anything about it or EVEN give me a refund! Don't go to this hotel, all they care about is taking your money.
