Grandi by Center Hotels

Grandi by Center Hotels

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel itself is absolutely wonderful. Great staff, great bar, great secure luggage storage that held two large bags in a single locker with a self-service key. The location is just a tiny bit farther from the main walkway of Reykjavik but this was not truly consequential for my family, others may want to just find a place that dumps them off directly onto the main pedestrian drag perhaps. In reality, this hotel was exceptional!"

"The hotel has a lot of unique charm. Much better than the cookie-cutter corporate crap, the vibe is hip & comfy, and I appreciated all the common areas. As expected, the private rooms are much nicer than the dorms, which are cramped and not the most comfy. Location is excellent - and the bar downstairs is a nice touch."

Hotel Reykjavik Saga

Hotel Reykjavik Saga

10/10 Excellent
"We were very satisfied with our recent five-day stay at Hotel Reykjavik Saga. It’s a fantastic hotel conveniently located in the heart of Reykjavik. It’s within walking distance of great restaurants, museums, parks, stores, and the harbor. We found it charming that we could hear the bells from a nearby cathedral pealing at the top of every hour. Our stay was wonderful. At check-in, Matteo of the Reception staff greeted us warmly. Upon learning that we were there for our 25th wedding anniversary, Matteo assigned us a nice room on the fifth floor with a beautiful view of Reykjavik and easy access to the sun deck. He also arranged to have our room decorated with two love birds made out of bath towels. Breakfasts were plentiful and delicious, featuring a variety of hot and cold dishes and quite a few delicious Icelandic specialties. The breakfast staff was cheerful, courteous, and helpful. We enjoyed using the dry sauna, cold bath tub, and shower area. Unfortunately, the steam sauna was out of order. Overall, we had a very pleasant stay at Hotel Saga. We highly recommend this hotel to all travelers planning a trip to the beautiful city of Reykjavik."

Iceland Comfort Apartments by Heimaleiga

Iceland Comfort Apartments by Heimaleiga

8/10 Good
"I booked this apartment a year in advanced for the total solar eclipse. The price was insanely high but not surprising since the apartment’s location is inside the path of totality. What I liked about the apartment after staying there: 1. Convenience with a grocery store, coffee shop, and gas station just across the road, a very good Indian restaurant, a Subway sandwich shop, an ATM, and convenient store in the same parking lot. The bus station is just a couple of blocks away. 2. Excellent water pressure and hot water. 3. Secure building since you cannot get in without an access code. Check-in and check-out process is non-contact. You get the access information via e-mail and checkout via text. What I didn’t like: 1. The kitchen is small but you’ll get used to it. First, it felt like you are washing dishes in a camper van. But, you’ll develop a system that you’ll get used to it. The freezer has so much frost that you could not close the inner door. 2. The security key pad to enter the building was glitchy. First night the system died and we had a hard time getting in. 3. The morning of our checkout, the fire alarm went off. Icelandic fire alarm system is very sensitive, so be very careful not to set it off when cooking anything."
