The room was perfect for me and I saw the other rooms available for those traveling with families were quite comfortable. The restaurant is right next door and there are other options to eat like pizza and other restaurants within a five minute walk. Very nice location, my only complaint was the limited parking out front but in their defense it due to construction. There is plenty of parking next to the restaurant so no worries about finding a parking spot. The staff was very friendly and the area is safe and I saw public transportation just a short walk away.

We stayed here for our last night in Iceland and the hotel was easy to find and the bed was comfortable. Rooms are very basic with no frills and breakfast was not as good as other hotels we stayed at but generally better than in the states. The bright neon lights were a total turnoff though. It was a decent and comfortable place to stay. Staff were nice and friendly.

The Viking Hotel was a bit unusual! The cabin was clean and the beds were comfy, but the upstairs was tricky to access, and the layout and furniture felt a little odd. Breakfast was fairly average, and most of the staff weren’t very friendly, though the receptionist was helpful and welcoming. Overall, I can’t say I’d stay here again.

Honest review? Very good hotel, although not very caring (most likely because of Nordic characters). And the sauna/hot tub area is a little further from perfect. Views? Stunning. Breakfast and restaurant: food-fresh and very pleasant. It’s the heart that is not there…I believe - yet.

The rooms are cozy small, one of the overbed lights didn't work so it made bedtime reading challenging. The bathtub was very tall and my husband is not handicapped, but due to his knee replacement did not feel comfortable climbing in and out of that bath. We enjoyed our dinner at the attached restaurant - best Fish and chips in Iceland!

The staff at the hotel were incredibly nice and helpful! Parking was a bit difficult as they were remodeling and expanding, but I believe once they are complete, it may be easier. Breakfast at the hotel was good, and dinner at the affiliate restaurant was very good. We were expecting/hoping the Viking theme would be extended to the rooms, but it wasn't really as predominant as it was in the hotel and restaurant. The room we had was a bit small, but comfortable and clean.

Too expensive for what it is

Not what I expected. Too expensive for what it is. Seems like you’re doing camping instead of staying at a hotel. Beds were super small and uncomfortable.

This is a very cool place. The decor isn’t just cheap decorations. I was amazed at the quality of the furniture in the lobby and restaurant area. It is really an interesting place. If you reserve here, you need to know that the cottages are tiny. Really just a bed and loft with two twin size beds. An adult can only stand in the middle of the loft. However, the beds are comfortable. Also, the water has a slight sulfur smell which can be expected in some places in Iceland. There was construction when we were there. They started working at 8 but that was ok because we were up and going anyway. The restaurant has delicious food
