The staff was solid, polite and helpful. The room was clean, but the twin beds were disappointing as they were basically cots with a thin mattress, not up to the quality standard of the rest of the hotel. The room was small, my Gold VIP room upgrade was denied (there were rooms available) and they did not accept American Express. Breakfast included with decent offerings and the staff itself was the reason for the 4 stars

Overall I would definitely stay here again Pros: I foound the breakfast quality was higher than a lot of the hotel breakfast buffets I've had, size/variety wasn't the biggest but decent and something for everyone (sausage/scrambled egg/hash browns/beans/bacon, fruit, pastries, bread, ham and cheese, porridge and a selection of toppings, herring, water, juice, tea & coffee and more that I don't remember) but same selection daily Rooms were clean and comfortable Staff were all friendly and helpful Cons: Shower layout gets half the bathroom floor wet for every shower Very little privacy in room toilets, frosted glass walls with a foot or so of clear glass at top and bottom, so you can hear everything from the bed My partner was less impressed with breakfast selection and quality. Fruit was a bit dried out, bananas pre-cut into thirds so had gone brown Spa/lounge/breakfast room was closed for rennovation while I was there with zero notice until check-in and meant we had to book breakfast slots every day due to limited space, extra noise in the mornings and afternoons audible from the room and temp breakfast/lounge area, and no downstairs toilets, and nothing offered in return. Works were finished by the time we left.

We recently stayed at Pingholt and was delighted by your staff’s service. One individual stood out for exceptional service and that was Chris. She was very helpful, authentic and delightful. May she see her Grandfather soon and may she soon get to experience the Sky Lagoon. 5 stars!

A non applicable option would be more appropriate. Our flight to Reykjavík was canceled due to the snow storm in Keflavik, and Icelandair couldn’t reschedule us through Keflavik in our allotted time We never got to stay at our rooms though we paid for two nights. Of course we are disappointed, I’m sure the hotel is lovely and staff also. Weather and airline took the opportunity away.

What an amazing hotel and amazing staff. They made our honeymoon trip truly so special. The location right in downtown Reykjavík is so convenient, with so much to do within walking distance. The hotel is also very beautiful and clean. We booked the honeymoon package and they went all out, it was so awesome. All the staff was amazing but just to shout out a couple people in particular - Artur helped us out at the bar and he was so kind and great to chat with. Irene from the front desk was emailing with me ahead of time and she was so helpful and nice. I would recommend this place to anyone interested in visiting Iceland.
