The staff were all very friendly. The breakfasts were good. There is a limited number of shared bathrooms, so you may need to wait 5-10 minutes for one especially during the morning and evening. While the room description may say there is a sink in the room, be aware not all rooms on the property have sinks and a sink may not be guaranteed. Our room itself was spacious and both got lots of light and had good blinds. ##### Nick Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Helen 26 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Typical guesthouse in a perfect location if you want to explore Reykjavik. Unfortunately no B&B option was available. All in all not cheap but location made up for this and we had a very enjoyable stay overall. ##### Helen Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Todd 17 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location near the church.

Un accueil prévenant , discret et un lieu trés cosy et propre ..pour nous,un superbe souvenir de cette guesthouse trés proche du centre de Reykjavik et des bus pour les excursions.Merci! ##### karine Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 29 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Two night stay with family I stayed in the garden-style apartment which is adjacent to the guesthouse with my husband, toddler, and parents for two nights. Edda, the friendly owner, contacted me in advance to make sure she would be available when we planned to arrive and check-in. The apartment had two bedrooms (3 twin beds and one queen) which was perfect for the five of us; a kitchen with dishwasher; washer/dryer (didn't use but it was available); and a separate living room and bathroom. It was clean, comfortable, and the location can't be beat. It is less than two blocks walk to the Hallgrimskirkja (the big church in the city) and the rest of the shops, restaurants, and sites. Everything is within walking distance. We had a car and street parking was free and plentiful. We didn't need to move the car for the two days we were there and it was only a block away. Would recommend the apartment to anyone and would stay here again! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bruce 25 May 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Bruce Stayed 1 night in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 16 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2020 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Ísland - Spa & Wellness Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Island-Spa-Wellness-Hotel.h524487.Hotel-Information) > > [Reykjavik Domes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Reykjavik-Domes.h36067854.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Reykjavík Grand](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Reykjavik.h45483.Hotel-Information) > > [Downtown Reykjavík Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Downtown-Reykjavik-Apartments.h23412660.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Klettur](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Klettur.h4445246.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Glasgow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels.d1334.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [ODDSSON Midtown Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Oddsson.h34036596.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Reykjavik](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Fosshotel-Reykjavik.h9031743.Hotel-Information) > > [Miðgarður by Center Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Migarur-By-Center-Hotels.h9853419.Hotel-Information) > > [Reykjavik Marina - Berjaya Iceland Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Icelandair-Hotel-Reykjavik-Marina.h4828813.Hotel-Information) > > [Alva Hotel Brautarholt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-22-Hill-Hotel.h9438511.Hotel-Information) > > [Stay Apartments Einholt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Stay-Apartments-Einholt.h2041560.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Raudara](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Fosshotel-Raudara.h526527.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in District 1](https://www.expedia.co.uk/District-1-Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels.0-n6252011-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Sif Apartments by Heimaleiga](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Sif-Apartments.h36869619.Hotel-Information) > > [NYX Esperia Palace Hotel Athens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-NYX-Esperia-Palace-Hotel-Athens.h89035944.Hotel-Information) > > [Storm Hotel by Keahotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Storm-Hotel-By-Keahotels.h10207049.Hotel-Information) > > [Rafayel on the Left Bank](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Rafayel-On-The-Left-Bank.h3145262.Hotel-Information) > > [Grandi by Center Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Grandi-By-Center-Hotels.h45668818.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Reykjavik Nordica](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hilton-Reykjavik-Nordica.h13477.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Cabin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Cabin.h1542421.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Lind](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Fosshotel-Lind.h794079.Hotel-Information) > > [Reykjavik Lights by Keahotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Reykjavik-Lights-By-Keahotels.h6119481.Hotel-Information) > > [Hótel Múli](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Muli.h14923586.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from London (LHR) to Sacramento (SMF)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/smf/london-to-sacramento) ### Activities ---
