We love this hotel because the rooms are always spacious and comfortable, every building is in a convenient area, and the staff is very accommodating. The breakfast is worth the expense as it not only gives you enough to start your day, but leftover for late snacking after being out all day.

By far our stay exceeded our expectations in every way. The breakfast was amazing in its variety and portions. The room set up was perfect for our family of four (2 bed 2 bath apartment) The Reykjavík Residence is wonderfully situated in walking distance of all downtown attractions and tours.

Amazing, our second stay at Reykjavik Residence! Staff are so helpful. Can’t do enough for you. There was a maintenance issue with one of our original rooms so we were offered upgrades on all rooms to junior suites…..wow, they were beautiful. Will recommend you to anyone I know who wants to go to Iceland. Thank you.

Disliked: Amenities
We were definitely catfished by the pictures. The room we were stuck with, which we paid extra for, was just so simple and cheap. The "wood" chairs were so cheap you could pick them up with your pinky because of how light the plywood is that was used to construct them. Additionally, the blankets were extremely small and thin, the room was never warm, and the bed was made up of two twin beds pushed together with a cheap mattress for my partner and I. Overall, would completely avoid this place if you're trying to unwind in a comfy room after traveling around iceland for so long. HOWEVER, despite all the negatives of the room itself, the staff was extremely kind, friendly, and helpful. Thank you so much for all the help, Raul! You were the one positive of our stay at the Residence Hotel.
