Great stay at the hotel! Comfortable beds, nice amount of room and kids were a little separated from us. Great kitchenette and nespresso coffee maker! Breakfast was a decent price but we didn’t partake. Maybe next time!

The Kvosin Downtown Hotel is a really nice hotel to stay in during a visit to Reykjavik. All of the staff we dealt with were friendly, polite, courteous and went out of their way to ensure our stay was great. We booked a bigger room with kitchenette (room 305) which was spacious and more than big enough for 2 adults and 1 child, with plenty of room for us and our luggage. The room was clean and was serviced every day. Just a couple of points about the room which didn't spoil our stay but are worth noting :- - There is no toaster or microwave in the kitchenette (I think there is a shared microwave somewhere in the hotel if needed). - In our room there was no table to sit and eat at (we did have a breakfast bar and to be honest other than breakfast we ate all of our meals outside of the room so this wasn't a problem) - There was a strange noise throughout the night which was quite audible throughout the room. I think this was something on the hotel moving in the wind (it was quite windy during our stay) - again this didn't really bother us as we sleep with white noise on, but worth knowing. The hotel itself is in a great location, very close to lots of restaurants and bars, extremely close to bus stop 1, close to the harbour and lots of other tourist hotspots around Reykjavic itself. Despite the minor points above I would fully recommend this hotel.

Worth it

Great location. Breakfast for us was included and was perfect. Something for everyone to chose from. Only complaint is the noise. Across from a church that chimed every 15 minutes all night long. They gave you earplugs if that would help you it’s an option. Lots of great restaurants within walking distance. No parking for the hotel so you have to find street parking.

It is at the heart of downtown so everything is walkable: restaurants, shops, bus stops. We liked our spacious room. We had the Biggest room with kitchenette and balcony. We didn't like that it is beside a church wherein the bell rings every hour. We didnt like that the shower is separate from the toilet. Moreover, there's not much space in the shower to hang your things, like the clothes that you will wear after. It would've been better if the shower has it's own toilet and a little space for you to move around. It would also be better if there is a microwave downstairs for general use. The staff were kind enough to let us use the microwave in the staff room. There's one staff though that didn't allow us at first until i told him that we have been using the staff microwave for 3 days already. After that, he just let us in and use it. He was gracious after so I wasnt mad or disappointed. He was just doing his job. Kudos to all of you

Amazing, comfortable and modern

Incredible room, friendly staff, and little extras like ear plugs if needed to help you sleep. We had a family of 5, and this room was perfect for us. Probably the most comfortable pull out mattress from a couch my daughter has had to sleep on.
