Location is excellent. Hotel is very close to different attractions. And close to the grocery store. The area is quiet. The only negative is that the shower is so small and water shower is very slow. It needs to be changed.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Room was dated but clean with a very comfortable bed. No blackout curtains just a roller blind, so there was light in the room all night. Bathroom / shower cubicle was very small.
Maybe my idea of a 4 star hotel is different.
Breakfast was limited but very tasty and all the staff we very friendly.
We enjoyed the family room here. The Marshall Bluetooth speaker is an awesome touch!!! The room is spacious, multiple TV’s, and the beds were comfortable. Hard to regulate the temperature but is a great hotel option in a great location!

The staff at the front desk were so intuitive and so helpful! Felt so welcome! Our room, on the other hand, left much to be desired. Mostly, the bathroom was not clean—my friend and I opted not to take a shower until our next destination, as it made us quite uncomfortable. The walls were also very, very thin, but I suppose that comes with age. The breakfast had a pretty good selection, but the vegan milks were warm. All of those downsides don't matter in the long run because we felt quite safe.
This is a cute older building but with that comes older building quirks. Tiny bathrooms. The shower area was probably 2’ square. The hot water smells bad. Not much for noise reduction between the rooms or hallways. Night time noise was an issue for trying to sleep. The restaurant next door is open until 1:00am with outdoor seating, so it was quite loud until after 1:00am. Breakfast was good. Not included in the room rate but it was a nice typical Iceland continental breakfast. It is in a good location for walkable shopping but finding parking within a block or two of the hotel was a challenge. And not free.
This hotel is perfectly located within walking distance to everything. It's a short stroll to bus stop #8 (Hallgrimskirkja) where you can be taken to all of the incredible sights Iceland has to offer.
My room was well-sized, clean, equipped with a towel warmer which I used to warm up my clothes before a journey into the cold.
The staff was kind and helpful. What a perfect place to stay for a trip to Reykjavik!
The location of this hotel is very convenient for getting around the city. Finding parking was reasonably easy as well. Price, location and quiet surroundings make this a very desirable hotel.
The location is unbeatable—situated on a quiet street just a short walk from Hallgrímskirkja and Rainbow Street, with a grocery store only five minutes away. While the property feels quite dated, the rooms are comfortable. My only mild annoyance was the traditional key system; the hotel requires you to leave your key at the front desk whenever you go out. It’s a bit of a hassle to wait in line just to get into your room at the end of the day, while the staff attended to other guests. If Hotel Odinsve upgraded to a modern key card system, the guest experience would be significantly improved.
The room we were given looked nothing like the rooms pictured on the website. Only after we complained were we switched to a room that closer resembled the pictures on the website. They are apparently in the process of remodeling all of the rooms to look like the ones on the website. Some staff were nicer than others, but most seemed indifferent to guests. Location is great and there is a nice restaurant attached to the building as well.
The staff was very friendly and professional, very helpful with with recommendations and directions. The room was good, and the breakfasts were very tasty and filling.
The only problem was the bathroom. It always had a very musty and moldy odor.The bathroom spoiled what would otherwise have been an excellent experience
