Hótel Reykjavík Grand

Great view of the bay. The hotel was outside downtown but close enough you could walk (~20 min), it is also within walking distance from a bus depot where you can travel to other cities and paid tours to the other places. Staff was very friendly, from all over the world, ready to entertain you and accommodate your needs. Breakfast is what you would expect of a five star hotel, plenty of food and a lots of options for everyone in the family. My family and I had a great time.

Beautiful and truly grand hotel. We had a very comfortable stay with the family. The reception desk was attentive to our needs - moreover the breakfast staff was phenomenal! They were caring and smiley and truly good hospitality is what you need! They were very kind! As well has the housekeeping staff - always smiling and engaging with our family. We had a junior suite which was huge and the windows were amazing to see the whole city. Very well located - for getting in and out of Reykjavík to see the sights. Downtown was 5 minutes.

Beautiful, clean hotel with a wonderful lobby - very high, beautiful glass ceiling to see the sky, plenty of comfy couches and chairs to accommodate a large number of guests. The rooms are very nice and the staff is very friendly and helpful! My favorite part is the sweet cat “Dula” who lives nearby and spends most of her time at the hotel! She greets guests with friendly curiosity and sat in my lap often during my stay. Cat lovers, this is the hotel for you :)

We stayed twice, once in a tower room and once in an atrium view room. The noise level in the atrium view room was very high and not modifiable. Amenities were far more generous in the tower room too. The restaurant served the best breakfast we found in Iceland, and the dinners were creative with abundant fresh food. I saw a wall-full of awards won by the chef and was privileged to see him in person to congratulate him. Finally, I can't say enough about the front desk crew. We arrived to find a problem with our first reservation, and they advocated to Booking for us. Every day they remembered us and greeted us, and they are interesting people in their own right. One was a moonlighting biologist who was very well read. We loved staying there! We hope to go back

Breakfast was a good spread, despite the size. They even have coffee, tea and croissants for those who can't wait till the main dining start. My room was not ideal for me as I am tall but they gave me 407 which had sloped ceilings; making me hunch most of the time in my room. They even provided a fan, which is good in case the room get stuffy. Good location and for Tours, the pickup point, Bus Stop 6, is just 200m away from hotel. Gym is small but sufficient.
