It should be stated up front, that this is a bare-bones backpacker’s facility, you have to rent pillow, blanket & towel. ##### Rodney Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ashwin 28 Sept 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service Not good value for money. They charged close to £50 for a nights stay in a shared dorm and yet wouldnt provide bedding (pillow and bedsheet) which was an additional rental cost of £30, felt like a rip off. This wasnt mentioned anywhere during booking. Host was responsive and quick though. ##### Ashwin Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Michael J 31 Aug 2025 I did not stay in this hotel. EXPEDIA must not include this hotel in your list...because this hotel is not telling their guests beforehand that NO BLANKET is supplied. I have to rent beddings and pillows and towels...disgusting. ##### Michael J Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### kathleen 11 Aug 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The room was dirty. I was emailed a list of curt (verging on disgusting) rules two days before trip when it was too late to cancel. I was changed an extra 6600 on arrival and then staff attempted to recharge on check out. There were hidden charges for towels sheets pillows bedding etc. it was worse than staying in a hostel. ##### kathleen Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Craig 13 Oct 2024 Liked: Staff & service Very average accommodation for the cost, ##### Craig Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Philip D 27 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities The family was very nice, it was clean. The stairs to the third floor were narrow and a bit steep. We had luggage for a month and this was our last stop, despite being in late 60s we were strong enough to take it up. There was NO shower on our floor. Well there WAS a shower on our floor, but we weren't allowed to use it.. We had to listen or go down and check when the shower was free on the second floor. Going down the stairs one night carrying my things l was thinking, YIKES l hope l don't fall. The shower area had NO chair, bench or stool for your items! There were hooks on the wall one of which was broken.There was only a toilet and sink on the third floor, the handle on the door to the toilet and sink room was coming apart from the inside. ##### Philip D Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Samir 28 Jul 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities We checked into this property knowing that we would be staying in a hostel, not a proper hotel. However, this place was simply substandard, even as a hostel. The reception and dining area was cluttered and dirty. Outside the hostel was a large tent and a lot of clutter. The shower and toilets were clean. The lady at the reception charged us unreasonably for everything: - $17 for renting a bath towel (they would not provide it to guest for free) - $17 per bag for holding it for 3 hours after our checkout (first time I have seen guests being charged to hold bags anywhere in the world) - $17 (2,000 ISK) each time for paying via credit card instead of cash. - Charging extra for arranging a bus from Reykjavik to Airport. She was charging us for everything she could get away with. I have been to other hostels and this is not how they treat their guests. ##### Samir Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 14 Oct 2024 An additional kr3,000 for bedding and kr4,000 to park for just a few hours doubled the cost of the stay. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jing 10 Aug 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This Egilsborg guesthouse is the worst I have ever stayed in. A few days before check-in, I was informed that I would have to pay a city tax of 1,000 ISK per day upon arrival. I was also told that I must either bring my own sleeping bag or rent their bedding and towel for 2,000 ISK per day. If paying by credit card instead of cash, the amount is even higher. Why were these charges not clearly listed as booking conditions? It feels deceptive. The condition of the guesthouse is terrible. The shower is controlled by a button—press it, and you get only 15–30 seconds of water before it stops. You must press the button repeatedly, and each time you have no idea if the water will be hot or cold. I honestly wonder why Expedia would even list this property. It should be removed entirely. ##### Jing Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Corey 23 Aug 2022 Liked: Staff & service Nice location with great access to the city center and bus stop number 13.

I’d like cancel my reservation ##### Gloria Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Nemo 6 Oct 2013 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hostel at Hotel Prices Expedia needs to review this place. Egilsborg should be listed and priced as a Hostel. Listed as "shared bath": 17 rooms, 50 guests - with THREE (3) Toilets and Two (2) showers. That is not a Guesthouse. We were charged $180 per night for a $50 per night hostel situation. ##### Nemo ### 2/10 Terrible #### Leah 17 Jul 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 1\. If you want bedding it’s 6,000 isk (about $50) extra. (Towels, pillows, and blanks/flat sheets not provided unless you pay for them) 2. Added extra to Expedia booking. 1,000 isk for tourism tax at check out. Note the tourism tax for Rekyavik is 666 isk according to google. 3. The place smelled like cat pee, although we did not see a cat. 4. I took pictures of the bed with unclean fitted sheet. 5. We arrived at the place between 6pm and 7pm the staff was not present or onsite. Buzzed people in based off booking only. Key left in open room unlocked. 8. While hotel seems to be still under construction, we question if the builders are certified as hooks on room just put into drywall not studs. Nor did they use drywall anchors. 9. Common area was dirty with a sink full of unwashed dishes when we arrived. Refrigerator full of food but smelled foul and had obviously not been cleaned recently. Good: The area close to the place has a Bonus and you can get groceries They are close to the bus to access. There are other guest houses in the area and we stayed in one, it was much better and was not a scam. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9ba915c9-3ac2-4e6f-b8bd-07463e634981-1752760359930.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6d3671d0-4b49-4270-984a-15b93980a492-1752760360937.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/24d9c42b-e69e-4019-802e-f6ec398f4ceb-1752760359335.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a02a5e72-5f23-4d1b-b176-ccc548e0c69d-1752760359505.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Leah Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 1 Sept 2013 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not so nice, but convenient. If you are looking for basic bed, basic sink and basic service and attitude for one night, this guesthouse will cover it. We stayed in guesthouse around the country, and pretty much everyone was much better than this one. It felt like you were staying in the bathroom of a gas station. Not worth the stay. ##### Verified traveller ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jesper 22 Jul 2011 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Don't go there Very close to strip club.

No toilet and bath in each room, toilet and bathroom is shared. ##### Jesper ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ju-Yun 26 Feb 2015 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Everything asks money Bad, not equal to the price ##### Ju-Yun ### 4/10 Poor #### Jason 17 Aug 2013 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Guesthouse not a hotel. Well, maybe I am spoiled by hotels in the U.S.A, but this place was kind of shabby. I have never experienced a guesthouse before and there was only one toilet and one shower on each floor. With 6 rooms on the floor, it was a scramble for the facilities. Our room was never serviced in the 5 days we stayed here. Not my idea of nice for the expensive price. This was a last resort for us as everything else in town was full. The lady at the "desk" told us that folks will book rooms up to one year in advance this time of year. ##### Jason ### 2/10 Terrible #### Thibaut 19 Oct 2014 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Worst place ever! Hidden additional tax,no service Everything wrong with Egilsborg Guesthouse: 1) You will pay up to 10% more than the price announced by this reservation website (the owner will tell you it is additional tax and credit card supplement… this has never happen in any others hotels we stayed in Reykjavik) 2) nobody to welcome you. A key with a piece of paper with your name in the common room 3) rooms that smell humidity 4)Contrary of what it advertised on its OWN website, the kitchen is not accessible (« Once breakfast is over kitchen facilities are available to our guests »… this is not true at all!) 5) forget the pictures, it does not look like this at all 6) the shower has a push button timer that last less than 15 secondes (not a joke). So you have to push the button every 15 secondes… really annoying! 7) owner that put its own music, brush his teeth and argue with employees in the common room during the breakfast time (but forget the breakfast, it was even written on a paper in the common room that tea, coffee and cereals would be available from 8:00 to 10:00am… we did not see anything) 8) blankets are too small for the beds Morality: don’t stay there at any price! We planned to stay two nights, we left after just one horrible night to the Capital Inn, a really nicer place! ##### Thibaut ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Sand Hotel by Keahotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Sand-Hotel-By-Keahotels.h17676136.Hotel-Information) > > [Grandi by Center Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Grandi-By-Center-Hotels.h45668818.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Reykjavik](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Fosshotel-Reykjavik.h9031743.Hotel-Information) > > [Kvosin Downtown Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Kvosin-Downtown-Hotel.h6527995.Hotel-Information) > > [Center Hotels Laugavegur](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-CenterHotel-Laugavegur.h36412694.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Von](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Von-Guldsmeden-Hotel.h36796295.Hotel-Information) > > [Center Hotels Arnarhvoll](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Center-Hotels-Arnarhvoll.h1769638.Hotel-Information) > > [Apotek Hotel by Keahotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Apotek-Hotel-By-Keahotels.h8696988.Hotel-Information) > > [Eyja Guldsmeden Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Eyja-Guldsmeden-Hotel.h31000378.Hotel-Information) > > [Black Pearl Luxury Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Black-Pearl-Luxury-Apartments.h9484576.Hotel-Information) > > [The Reykjavik EDITION](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-The-Reykjavik-EDITION.h71618236.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Cabin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Cabin.h1542421.Hotel-Information) > > [Reykjavik Residence Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Reykjavik-Residence-Hotel.h4099809.Hotel-Information) > > [Storm Hotel by Keahotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Storm-Hotel-By-Keahotels.h10207049.Hotel-Information) > > [Castle House Luxury Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Castle-House-Luxury-Apartments.h479400.Hotel-Information) > > [Hótel Múli](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Muli.h14923586.Hotel-Information) > > [Exeter Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Exeter-Hotel.h22266982.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Ísland - Spa & Wellness Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Island-Spa-Wellness-Hotel.h524487.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Reykjavik Nordica](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hilton-Reykjavik-Nordica.h13477.Hotel-Information) > > [Center Hotels Plaza](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Center-Hotels-Plaza.h1379245.Hotel-Information) > > [Reykjavik Marina - Berjaya Iceland Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Icelandair-Hotel-Reykjavik-Marina.h4828813.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Fron](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Fron.h2093979.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu 1919 Hotel, Reykjavik](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-1919-Hotel.h1197028.Hotel-Information) > > [Ice Apartments Reykjavik by Heimaleiga](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Ice-Apartments-Reykjavik.h13339542.Hotel-Information) > > [Reykjavik Konsulat Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Reykjavik-Konsulat-Hotel.h19380922.Hotel-Information) > > [Þingholt by Center Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Ingholt-By-Center-Hotels.h1601404.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Reykjavík Grand](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Reykjavik.h45483.Hotel-Information) > > [Alva Hotel Brautarholt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-22-Hill-Hotel.h9438511.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Reykjavik Saga](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Reykjavik-Saga.h73411970.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Reykjavik Centrum](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Reykjavik-Centrum.h1173957.Hotel-Information)
