Fodor's "Across the street from the hilltop church of Hallgrímskirkja, this hotel is a short walk from most of Reykjavík's major attractions. Some guest rooms have balconies." Full review
Frommer's "The rooms of this family-run hotel are small and uninspired, with narrow beds, small bathrooms, and generic furniture -- but the location and friendly, relaxed atmosphere are key." Full review
