We stayed for 3 nights and the location is perfect, especially if you want to take advantage of the nightlife in town. The cafe/restaurant across the street is really good as well. If you can get an apartment on one of the top floors with views towards the mountains. The terrace off those rooms is a great spot on a... More

I stayed in this hotel because of all the positive reviews. I stayed in romm 602 and yes the view was great but the room was very dirty. The bathroom sink was covered in black dirt, the towels were covered in hair. The shower did not drain but they did fix that problem very quickly. The main living area had... More

Great location on a street filled with small boutiques, perfect for window shopping. We were there in June and it was light for all 24 hours ~ I would suggest bringing a sleeping mask. The apartment was nicely furnished and we used the kitchen as restaurants in Iceland are quite expensive. Be aware though, that many of the shops including... More

Just spent 5 days at Room with a View and it was excellent. The room had two large (in fact sweeping) views of Reykjavik. The two-room apartment was spacious, clean and well equipped. But what made the stay really enjoyable was the staff person -- Jessica-- who was incredibly helpful and efficient. From restaurant recommendations to helping with the car... More

Excellent location in central Reykjavik, within walking distance of almost everything. Clean apts, quiet towards backyard, nice beds. Nothing really negative. Didn't use the kitchen at all.

Took my wife on a romantic weekend and got a deal on this hotel. The location of the hotel was great right downtown on the main shopping street, close to a myriad of restaurants and theaters. When we arrived the lobby and service was great but the elevator a bit small for two people and two suitcases. The apartment was... More

So most people have addressed these, but I'd like to confirm them. First, the good: we wanted an apt with a kitchen as we heard Reykjavik was expensive to eat, so having the kitchen was clutch. It took a few minutes to figure out the touch button stovetop, but I was happy that the kitchen was stocked with pans, bowls,... More

I originally booked Apartment K in Reykjavik, but just before we were due to travel, I was informed by Expedia that Apartment K was overbooked (due to a guest wishing to stay on longer!), and we had been moved to the Room With a View Apartments. My initial trepidation was dispelled when we arrived at Room With a View Apartments.... More

For so much less money than the most expensive hotels in Reykjavik, you get all that and more at Room With a View. Incredible location, free parking (this is huge), jacuzzi IN room and on our floor, cool view of the city outside our window. The room was decorated like a chic upscale Manhattan apartment. Everyone who worked at the... More

The location is in the most happening street in Reykjavic, where there are many restaurants, bars, shops around. The lobby is nice and modern, and they provide a computer and printer for the guests to use. The free wifi connection worked very well. I got a flash deal from booking.com for EUR 31 per night. Our room is quite nice,... More
