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

While many previous visitors appreciated the hotel's quirky design and friendly staff, others wished there were tea and coffee makers in the rooms (you can ask for one at the front desk, though).
Independent "The quirky nautical-themed Hotel Reykjavik Marina is set on the edge of the downtown harbourfront, has rooms with sailing knot diagrams and maps as wallpaper, life rings on the balconies"
