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!"

8/10 Good
"It was a good hotel with a really good view. The staff were excellent and always very friendly. I give it a 4 star because it has a ‘hostel’ feel. The rooms are slightly small and there were some spots on the wall that looked bloody, which was a bit off putting. We asked for a double bed, which we got but we also got 2 single duvets. My husband and I are quite tall (5ft 9 and 6ft 1) and the beds and duvet were quite small for us. The hotel as a whole is wonderful but if you want more space then I’d look else where."

"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."

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."

When is the best time to go to Seltjarnarnes?
While Seltjarnarnes is a small peninsula, the best time to visit is largely dependent on what you hope to experience, with the summer months offering the mildest weather and the winter providing the best chances for northern lights.For those keen on experiencing the famous Northern Lights, the winter months, specifically from late September to late March, are ideal. The long hours of darkness significantly increase your chances of seeing this natural phenomenon, especially from the Grótta Lighthouse area. While Seltjarnarnes itself is a quiet residential area, its low light pollution near the lighthouse makes it a prime viewing spot just a short drive from Reykjavík's city centre.If you prefer milder weather for outdoor activities and extended daylight for sightseeing, the summer months, particularly June, July, and August, are perfect. During this period, you'll experience the Midnight Sun, with nearly 24 hours of daylight, allowing for long days of exploring the peninsula's coastal paths and the nearby capital. The weather is generally more pleasant for walking around the Grótta Nature Reserve or visiting the local golf course.
