Top University of Iceland Hotel Reviews

Grandi by Center Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was ideally located, the staff were very helpful. I liked my room. Close to bus stop for transfer to the airport, Food in the hotel was expensive but as it was everywhere in this country."

Reykjavik Residence Apartment Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay! We were fortunate enough to have been in the same building as the reception staff which worked out great for us. Most of the staff were very friendly, informative, and provided great service. They provided suggestions for food eateries, fresh towels and buckets of ice upon requests. There were drinks such as bottled beer available for purchase, however, it was somewhat disappointing that they did not have a bottle opener for use—hmm. We booked a spacious room which was clean and comfortable and made use of their laundry facility which thankfully was available when we had down time between our tours. Thank you for a wonderful stay. Overall, I highly recommend this place."

Old Town Reykjavik

8/10 Good

"Location is very convenient, close to everything. The walls are thin so be mindful of that and respect quiet hrs but other than that, it was easy to check in/out. The showers/toilets were always clean. The bedrooms are small but if you only need to sleep for a couple hrs I think it’s perfect because you have privacy and enough space for your belongings. There is no front desk but I believe you can message them with any inquiries - I tried to request a fresh towel and received no response but other than that, I would recommend this place."
