Hostels in Capital Region, Iceland

This hotel boasts an excellent location, just across the road from the ocean, and the sea-facing lounge areas on each floor are absolutely stunning. The elevator is now fixed, so there's no need to worry about heavy luggage. There are two floors dedicated to dorm rooms and two floors with standard rooms. The dorm floors also have plenty of bathrooms. The kitchen is clean and staff clean it daily. I stayed for a week and encountered three different front desk staff members, all of whom were incredibly friendly and even helped me book tours over the phone. This hotel offers amazing value for money – highly recommend it for a stay in Reykjavik!

The accommodation is conveniently located near Bus Stop 6, which is also where our day tour picked us up. It's also close to Rainbow Street and the city center. The room was comfortable but a bit small; for two people, there wasn't quite enough space to fully open our luggage.

The hostel was clean, cozy, and had a very welcoming atmosphere. The staff were friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist. The room was neat, and the bed was comfortable for a good night’s sleep. The location was convenient, close to restaurants and tourist attractions. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely stay here again!

It's quite clean. There's daily housekeeping. The shared kitchen also gets cleaned again at night. The only thing is that the hot water comes from geothermal sources, so it has a sulfur smell, but you get used to it.

Really close to a large supermarket and the bus route for a 10min run into town, small quaint little hostel but sooooo comfortable ! I loved the bunk linen and space, the common areas were also just right and encouraged getting to know fellow travellers Highly recommend for this sweet little hostel, it’s just right for a solo traveller who might want to see more in my opinion, bus route takes you through residential Reykjavík etc

I didn't make a reservation personally, but I couldn't get an email from the owner, who said self-check-in, and after another guest opened the door, I called the owner and went in. Open the part with the room number attached to each room and press the off-time key. When you check out, you can leave it in it. The entrance is not the front door, but the second floor of the next staircase. The underground luggage storage room is You have to go back to the building, not next to it. It was nice to be close to the city center and the museums

I want to give an objective review of this hostel. First, the pros: 1. The price is excellent. I stayed for five nights for just over 2000 [currency, e.g., ISK], which is very reasonable considering the prices in Iceland. 2. The communal kitchen and bar are very spacious and bright, making cooking very convenient. 3. The location is central; it's easy to walk anywhere within 15 minutes, and there are bus stops nearby. 4. The hostel has a minimalist, modern design, and the facilities are relatively new. The individual bed curtains provide great privacy. Now, a few areas for improvement: 1. There are a bit too few restrooms and showers, so sometimes you have to wait in line. 2. I really hope they could provide a female-only dorm, even if it's a multi-person room. My bed this time was near the door, and people were constantly coming and going in the middle of the night. Two guys snored loudly, which was incredibly disruptive, and the air quality also deteriorated. I was woken up three times in one night – it was a nightmare. 3. It would be good to separate the male and female bathrooms/showers. Having them mixed is indeed a bit unhygienic.

Convenient for cruise-goers, as it's very close to the bus stop – just one stop to the pier. The environment is clean, and there's a restaurant downstairs. Given that accommodation in Iceland is expensive, this was a very affordable option for a one-night stay. A 10-minute walk takes you to the seaside, which is a great spot to watch the sunset and you can also see cruise ships in the distance.

The room I temporarily brushed was really good for this time to book such a cheap and comfortable room. If there is a private bathroom, it is better. There are supermarkets and shops nearby, which is very convenient!
