A flying visit to Iceland for a long weekend. Accommodation was provided in this well placed hotel with tremendous views of the Hallsgrimkirkja. Within easy walking distance of restaurants and harbour. Friendly an helpful staff. Good buffet breakfast and free tea and coffee available all day, very welcome given the average temperature! Rooms very small, tiny wardrobe and nowhere for... More

The location is good and breakfast too but the over all experience had its flaws. The hotel has no real lobby and the stairs which provide access to the rooms have torn carpeting. The shower was so small it reminded us of a cabin shower on a riverboat in Russia; the shower curtain stuck to your body. The room darkening... More

This hotel was on offer for a reasonably-priced long weekend from Icelandair. Location is excellent for the main sights of the city and shopping streets. We were in the annexe round the corner from main building. Rooms are very small, the bathrooms minute. However for a short trip, perfectly adequate. many have commented on a few irritating factors, which would... More

Clean, comfortable, central location - what more can you ask for? Breakfast was ample, showers were hot and powerful and if you find time in the room there are lots of English channels. You don't come to Iceland to sit in a room!! Split over 2 buildings in front of the main church in town you are 5 mins walk... More

This hotel is very basic but overall clean. My bed was small and noisy when moving around in it. The shower, toilet and sink are part of one unit with just a shower curtain separating the 3, so you could have a shower while sitting on the toilet (Not recommended)! We stayed there towards the end of May and the... More

Good points: Great location, giving good views of cathedral and easy walking distance to main sights. Also only 10 mins walk to the BSI bus station (where the flybus drops off). Friendly & helpful staff. Included breakfast was pretty good, reasonable choice of cold food & make yourself waffles. Coffee, tea, hot chocolate and orange squash available in the breakfast... More

Went to Iceland on an Icelandair package which included the Golden Circle Tour, Flybus Plus transfers and the Leifur Eiriksson Hotel. Rooms are basic but all that's needed for a 3 night trip to Reykjavik. The rooms we had were clean, comfortable, small and very warm. The hotel has two buildings, the main hotel and the annex across the street.... More

This hotel is in a great central location and the hotel is very clean, staff are friendly and the breakfast buffet is good although a little chaotic at busy times. The rooms are very basic though and the furnishings and decor is a little tired. With the extended daylight hours during the summer, the lack of effective black out curtains... More

Easy to find, right next to the tall iconic Church in the centre of Reykjavic. The hotel was ideal for a short weekend. The staff were very helpful though a little laid back but this added to its charm. The rooms were basic but functional. However the mould around the windows in the bathroom was a little off putting.
