Hotel was average. The lobby is small and the hotel feels dated. The room was ok, had a queen size bed and 2 twin beds, small table and chairs. Bathroom was small, water was extremely hot. Blackout curtains let in a lot of light. Location was ok. Close to the waterfront and walking path. Different than being in the downtown city center. Just depends what you are looking for. Front desk did not explain parking situation very well which made it confusing. There is a "check in" screen that you put your license plate number in and that registers your car. And then you pay at the machine outside. But you need to put the license plate number in everytime you park your car. After being in Iceland, i now understand their parking. But this was our first day/night in country with no sleep and the staff didn't explain it.

Property was convenient but in a noisy area. Some noise was probably nearby construction but alot of highway /street noise. Staff were very friendly. No dining facilities but breakfast is offered as extra.There was a fire alarm at about 7.20 am. Due to fire in ground floor kitchen.!! Noisy room doors due to old outdated lock/ latch system. Overall hotel was noisy and dated.

One of the main reasons we picked this property was its location which is wonderful. It is within easy walking distance of the harbor and lots of shopping. It is an older hotel with limited parking. We were lucky to get a spot in the lot. The fire alarm going off at 7:40 am was an unpleasant shock. The elevator was out of service the second and third days we were there. It was a bit of a challenge lugging suitcases down 3 flights of stairs but I was thankful not to be lugging them up 5 as I am sure some guests had to do.

Great location! Grocery store right behind hotel which is convenient. Hot water does have a strong sulfur smell, if you are not used to that. You will pay for parking, as the hotel does not own the parking lot, and there are not a lot of spaces available, which can be an issue in the evenings. Beds were comfortable though and room was clean. Bring your sleeping mask in summer, the curtains are not black out ones. Hope this helps!

Disappointing

Alas did not get one of the nice modern rooms in the pictures, ours looked as if it had last been decorated c. 1980's. The shower was the worst of the trip sprayed water everywhere with bathroom floor literally swimming after every use. Also first time I've seen a shower curtain in about 30 years. Parking is available, at a cost. Stayed in Fosshotel Stykkisholmur immediately beforehand, much nicer facilities there.

It was an okay stay. They advertise parking but it is very expensive. I couldn't find any menu and the restaurant appears to have closed. Rooms were clean and friendly staff for sure. But kind of expected more for the money.

The staff were so incredible! I landed really early in the morning way before check-in and they held my bag for me. I completely forgot that the charging outlets were different than north american chargers. The reception desk had a whole box of different adapters that savedddd me. Considering it was Easter weekend and everything was closed at that time, they made my trip so much easier. My flight was super late leaving and I still wanted to explore the city and they held my bag again! Incredible staff so wonderful!

Lovely stay, but the hotel is in need of modernisation. Staff were very friendly. The breakfast was delicious. Close to public transport and pick up bus stops. Shame the buses do not come up to the hotel anymore due to road restrictions. From the from of the hotel, you get a nice ocean view, sadly mine overlooked the carpark.

Room clean, but very basic with tea/coffee making facility only… no fridge. Shower rose terrible with minimal spray going in all directions. Basin only so nowhere to put anything in bathroom. Wasn’t disturbed by any noise coming from other rooms which was a plus. Public transport close, and easy walk into main part of Reykjavik.

The hotel was clean and the staff were friendly. One suggestion is to take advantage of Hotels.com's breakfast offer if it's included as part of the stay. Prices in Iceland are very high, and breakfast on our own at the hotel was $30 a person. Breakfast was a typical hotel buffet.

Had a great stay at the Fosshotel Baron last week. The staff there are warm and welcoming and check in is quick and efficient. The facility is clean, with seating areas and a restroom on the main floor. Breakfast included a wide variety of foods, and their breakfast box was great! As an Expedia VIP, I got access to free welcome drinks which was a nice surprise. The room I was in was small but I knew that going into the trip. It made good use of the space though, and the location couldn't be beat. Would recommend a stay here for anyone looking to explore Reyjkavik!

Very Pleasant Stay

Lovely room, nice decor and furniture and a decent size. Wifi was very good. Kettle in the room but there was a sign saying no cooking so I presume that means you can't use the kettle for making noodles. There is a grocery shop just behind the hotel which was very convenient. In front of the hotel is the seafront which was very nice.
