Hôtels proches de Grásleppuskúrarnir í Grímsstaðavör, Reykjavik

We were initially allocated 331 which was in another block and had twin beds, so we swapped to room 301 which was double and we weren't disappointed. It was a clean and spacious, comfy bed .Great to have a ettle, fridge and coffee machine :-) Large walk in shower with constant hot water. Large wardrobe, plenty of storage. We had a 2nd door onto a corridor to other rooms, there was windows in this wall but by opening curtains people on corridor could look in. Only downside no natural light. Relatives across corridor in room 305 had full wall of windows for day light. Breakfast was good choice and plentiful. Reception staff friendly and helpful. Located with walking access to everything. Would stay here again and recommend

Très bel hôtel style industriel ,proche du port et du centre de la ville Belles chambres bien agencées, salle de bain spacieuse Petit déjeuner très varié avec de bon produits frais Le skyr est à tomber et il y a du très bon saumon ce qui est devenu rare ,on a fait 5 hôtels pendant notre séjour et seulement 2 avec du samon au petit déjeuner Personnel très agréable

The guesthouse itself was nice enough. Note that if you stay in one of the economy rooms, you will only have access to one bathroom per 5 rooms (unless you are willing to walk back to the main house and use one of the bathrooms there). This was not an issue during my stay, but I woke up super early to avoid it becoming an issue. The real issue for me was the lack of communication. I ended up needing to spend an extra 50 dollars on long distance calls because this business failed to check their email or Facebook messages. On top of that, I had to call twice because I was given incorrect information the first time. Note that booking this property is a risk if you book through a third party (Expedia etc) because you may not receive the email with instructions on how to check in (this is why I had to call repeatedly after they failed to answer my emails).

Outstanding budget option in a city that could use inexpensive lodging. The upside include: comfy bedding, warm environment, well maintained, solid breakfast with self choice, and great windows letting in light. Bath surrounding is clean and easy to manage. This is a hostel but our room was a one bedroom space with king size bedding. Best beef of our trip! The owners were great; super helpful. Questions: if you cannot get passed the hostel issue, then .... Maybe not the place. The guests were quiet, mindful, and considerate. Not a party hostel.

Kex… Ugh such a frustrating review to write. I really wanted to like the Kex hostel it has its good points, but overall was the worst hostel stay I have had in Iceland. I’ll give you my very detailed opinion. The Bad… -Lacking in the toilet paper department!!! We were on floor 4 there were several private bathrooms with showers and also separate locker room style bathrooms. At 7:30 AM I ran to the bathroom after finishing my business realized there was no TP! Ugh. Anyway afterwards I looked through the different open stalls with toilets. Only 3 toilets on the whole 4th floor had TP! To me having adequate TP is an essential thing. The bathrooms weren’t restocked until 10AM ish. And we aren’t even in peak tourist season. We mentioned the issue to the staff and they said “just call next time you need something” kinda hard to “just call” when you have already done your business in the bathroom and you need something to wipe with! They need to have staff check the bathrooms more frequently. -The kitchen is sad in the “equipment” department. One of the reasons we stay at hostels is to cook our own food. Maybe they are trying to push buying food from their restaurant. I get that they get a lot of traffic. But the cooking pan selection is -Terrible- nasty old pans that the thrift shop would discard. Janky handles, and interior coating mega gouged out. Don’t come here expecting to cook at least on level 4. -No way to make coffee!!! Again they probably want you to pay for their breakfast. But there is no option to make coffee. No coffee pot, machine, or way to make a filter pour over etc. Don’t bring coffee grounds expecting to make your morning brew. There was an electric kettle, but again no way to make coffee unless you brought instant. -The showers need a good bleach and scrub. The walls had black mold growing on them. Considering the fact that Kex was our most expensive hostel in Iceland (we paid 20,906 for a private double, with linens, and shared bathrooms…or $153 US) compare Kex to the Svjarborg in Stykkisholmer $90 US or Halfdan HI Hostel $63 US ( in both we had a private double & shared bath) but both were awesome and had a fully equipped kitchen with decent quality pots, options to make coffee, and plenty of toilet paper. I understand that being in the city we can expect to pay more. BUT I expect that price to include: -enough toilet paper -a means to make coffee -decent cookware. The good… -The location is great. Easy walking distance to the main shops/streets. And the ocean right across the highway. -Awesome “vibe” cool decor, lots of couches/lounge areas. -Entertaining/Social. In the evening there was group song trivia in the main area, and in another a live band. -Our room a private double with shared bathroom was large, and we slept well. (Note: I have never stayed in a “quiet” hostel so I always travel with a sleep soundtrack on my phone and a melatonin) -The staff was all polite In conclusion, I have traveled on 4 contine

Bon hôtel, très propre et pratique. Suffisant pour 2-3 nuits à Reykjavik. Prévoir 15-20 min de marche pour rejoindre le centre ville à pied mais le long de la mer cela reste agréable. Petit déjeuner complet, pas un choix immense mais suffisant. Bon rapport qualité prix.

Très bon hôtel, le personnel y est très agréable et le lieu est très propre. Le centre de la ville est un peu loin il faut une voiture ou bien marché un petit moment

Un service impécable. Une propreté exemplaire. De fabuleux déjeuner buffet. L'hôtel de la chaine Keahotel dépasse plusieurs autres chaines par l'ingénuité du design de ses chambres. Le centre ville est facilement accessible par les voies piétonnières ou par byciclette.

Deux nuits passées dans cet hôtel lors de notre tour de l’Islande. Commençons par le positif : le cadre, le calme environnant, les chambres confortables, les salles de bains grandes et bien équipées (petit bémol pour le lavabo qui est minuscule). De mon point de vue, un des points positifs devient négatif quand on y reste 2-3 jours : l’accès au centre de Reykjavik prend 20 minutes. Ce n’est pas beaucoup me direz vous mais quand on veut rentrer se reposer dans l’après-midi puis ressortir le soir ça fait vite des kilomètres et du temps passé. Selon moi c’est une excellente étape mais pour visiter la capitale on doit pouvoir trouver mieux placé. Autre points négatifs : absence de petits déjeuners, et les portes des maisons qui sont lourdes et qui sont claquées par leurs occupants (quand c’est tôt le matin, ce n’est pas très agréable).

Hotel un peu isolé, au calme, à proximité de Reykjavik. Grandes et belles chambres confortables, donnant sur un lac. Grande salle de bain, avec de bons produits de douche et de soins. Très bon petit déjeuner, avec beaucoup de choix, sucré et salé. Hôtel que nous avons apprécié, où l'on se sent bien.
