We had a wonderful stay! The front desk people were so helpful and we were able to see Northern Lights. We enjoyed the jazz live music in the hotel, too. We’ll definitely go back to stay if we can go back to Iceland!

The property is well cared for and well run! It is a few blocks from the main street of restaurants and the Church. It is easy walking distance to the harbour and the bus terminal. We did not choose the breakfast option. The room had a nespresso machine. We had a room with a separate sitting area from the bedroom. It was great! With a view of the church. The ART everywhere really elevated the hotel into a be seen place.

Of the three places we stayed in we like this place the best. Not right in the heart of the downtown shopping area so it felt like we were able to walk down and enjoy those elements of the dirt hut not be immersed in them. Walkable, good restaurants within an easy stroll of the hotel. The bar in the hotel was very comfortable with deep leather chairs, fireplace and friendly bartender. Old timey elevator with a lush open door and no gate to slide across. Just hit enough to fit two people snd a couple of bags. The suite was clean with a free first mini bar drink or snack, comfortable bed, nicest bathroom so far with a deep tub, and a nice sitting room. For the money - right in the middle of the price range of places we stayed we by far like it the best.
