Reykjavik Hlidar Hotels

lived for 8 nights clean room nice staff at front desk who recommended nice places nearby water pressure for showering can be a bit stronger yummy breakfast with acceptable amount of choices acceptable distance from main street not noisy when sleep

Location was great and super central. Check-in was swift. There were plenty of toilets and 2 separate showers which were clean. However, in one shower room, the holder for the shower head was broken and so had to hold it whilst showering which wasn’t the best. Common room was clean with kettle, hob,microwave, and fridge. Overall was a comfortable stay for a night.

Facilities: It is a family hotel with kitchen facilities, bathroom, and radiator to dry clothes quickly Sanitation: Clean and sanitary, good Environment: Close to Iceland bus station, you can walk there, close to the cathedral, and close to the beach Service: The owner of the family hotel is serious, enthusiastic and easy to talk to. He recommended the hot springs to the locals, which is very good. I went there twice

Located in downtown Reykjavik, it is convenient for travel and has a good surrounding environment. However, it is a self-service hotel with no front desk and you have to contact by phone, which is very troublesome if you don't have good language skills. The breakfast is OK, rich and purely Western. Attached are photos of the surrounding environment.

Except that the door could not be opened at first, after contacting the landlord, the landlord opened the door for us in the background and then updated the correct password. The room is relatively short and does not have a direct view of the sea, but other than that it is very good. The facilities are complete and easy to use. The multi-function oven and refrigerator are very convenient.

We started our travel to Iceland by driving around Iceland in a campervan, so we were hoping for a relaxing hotel stay in Reykjavik at the end of the trip when we pre-booked. We were not disappointed by the Eyja Guldsmeden. The location was only a few blocks away from downtown where there were tons of shopping and dining options, and the hotel itself was beautiful. In the lobby, we grabbed (included) coffee in the mornings and a reasonably-priced drink for happy hour. The service at the front desk was friendly and cordial. The room itself had a nice view of the mountains and was warm and cozy. It was a great stay and we would definitely go back to this hotel again if we are ever back in Iceland! Our only difficulty, understanding this is mostly outside of the hotel's control, is that some of the sidewalks on the walk to downtown were extremely icy and slippery after a day or so of wintry mix that froze over. We had to be extremely careful making our way down to Laugavegur, which had much safer sidewalks. There were even a few buses and cars that couldn't make their way up or down the icy, hilly streets and had to work their way around. So if you are going in the Winter, be cautious and walk slowly!

Free parking is available in the city, and this hotel is very cost-effective. It is not far from anywhere. Of course, Lei City is very small. There were many people at breakfast, but it should be considered a standard Western breakfast.

The room is clean and tidy, the service staff is very friendly, the facilities are complete, the breakfast environment is good, and it feels like returning home. It is worth recommending everyone to stay here.

Very convenient Everything was perfect

The room was fine and clean, beds were good, One wonky closet door that could have been fixed before we got there. Bathroom smelled a little strange but everything was clean otherwise. Warm weather outside made the room very warm, it would have been good to include a fan in the room. Great location and otherwise good.
