The hotel is in a perfect location near all amenities, offering clean and cozy rooms with impeccable service. Although the dining options are limited, the overall experience is fantastic.
My stay at Reykjavik Residence Hotel was a delightful surprise. The rooms were spacious, clean, and well-located, exceeding my expectations. The friendly and accommodating staff made my experience even better. However, the dining options were somewhat limited. Overall, a great value for the money.
The hotel offers spacious and tastefully decorated rooms with lovely views, though locating the property might be a bit challenging. The service is exceptionally helpful with various booking options, but there might be ongoing renovations affecting the exterior. The location is perfect for exploring Reykjavik on foot, with some rooms having a well-equipped kitchen. The dining experience, with tasty and hearty options, is complemented by a cozy atmosphere in the room. Overall, a great value for money choice with comfortable and clean rooms.
The hotel is located near the town's shops and the harbor, but the thin walls and ceilings made it difficult to sleep for the first two nights. The room was stocked with complimentary milk, orange juice, cereal, and a coffee machine, but there was no dressing table.
The hotel rooms were not only spacious but well-appointed with everything we needed, including a complete kitchen and dining utensils, and a washer/dryer. The complimentary tea, coffee, milk, orange juice, cornflakes, and nice toiletries were fantastic. The service was very friendly and helpful, especially with booking tours and trips, although there were some privacy concerns. The location was excellent, within easy walking distance of everything we wanted to experience. The dining options were also a nice touch, with plenty of home-made products. Overall, it's a great place to stay with some minor room for improvement.
The hotel offers a great location in Reykjavik with easy access to nearby landmarks and shopping areas. The rooms are equipped with a well-stocked kitchenette, but the air circulation could be better. The service was top-notch, with staff going above and beyond to assist with bookings and upgrades. Dining options provided a lovely atmosphere, though limited choices were noted. Overall, good value for a tourist exploring Reykjavik.
The hotel is conveniently located near the town with all the shops and close to the harbor, offering a comfortable stay despite the rooms not being fully darkened early in the morning. The service at the hotel greatly contributed to the success of our stay in Iceland, particularly with cooking facilities and meeting our needs. The central location allows for easy exploration of various activities, although some construction work nearby may affect peace and quiet. Dining options are plentiful with fresh local products, but watching TV from the beds may pose a challenge due to room layout. Overall, a value-for-money choice for a combined work and leisure trip in Reykjavik.
Upon arriving at the hotel, I found it to be a bit dark, but at night, the rooms were well-lit. They were equipped with amenities like milk, orange juice, and a coffee machine with plenty of pods to choose from. Overall, a pleasant stay with some minor lighting issues.
The hotel rooms were lovely, beautifully decorated, warm, cosy, and peaceful, with complimentary coffee, tea, and juice available. The service was always helpful and accommodating, making our stay more pleasant. The location was good for reaching other destinations but a bit noisy at night. The dining experience was exceptional, providing quality and quantity, and the facilities were top-notch.
The room was immaculately clean, well-appointed, and had unexpected nice gestures like milk and juice in the fridge. The hotel staff were super helpful, going out of their way to assist. The location was perfect, close to the town center, and within walking distance of key areas. The dining experience was really nice with lots to choose from, although it was not included in our rate.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were impeccable, very clean, and comfortable with excellent amenities, making it feel like a mini apartment which was perfect for relaxing between tours. However, as a wheelchair user, the accessibility was an issue with items placed too high. The actual look of the room differed from the website.
Staying at this hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location is great, close to various attractions and easy to reach from the airport. The rooms, although on the top floor and in a quiet street, were small and had an odd smell that could be due to the old carpet. The service was exceptional and greatly contributed to the success of our stay. The dining experience was exceptional in quality and quantity but a bit pricey.
The hotel offers impeccable rooms located in several buildings within a few minutes' walk from each other, resembling more of a micro flat than a typical hotel room. The service is extremely helpful and attentive, accommodating all needs 24/7. The location is excellent, within walking distance of main Reykjavik highlights. The dining options provide plenty of choices directly to your room reservation. The facilities are top-notch to ensure a comfortable stay.
The hotel is wonderfully located, just a quick walk to various shops and restaurants. The rooms were lovely and clean, equipped with all the facilities one could ask for. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to ensure our comfort. The dining experience was excellent, offering a delightful selection of fresh and delicious breakfast items. However, the seating area was a bit uncomfortable for relaxation after a day of sightseeing.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were cosy, with a King Size bed and a massive bathroom. The Wi-Fi was good, and having breakfast served in a secluded courtyard felt so peaceful. The location was perfect, just a short walk to everything I needed.
