“This hotel, steeped in history, exudes an Art Deco charm that resonates throughout. Its prime location places guests at the heart of Reykjavik, steps away from key attractions and bus routes, blending historical elegance with urban convenience. I appreciate the hotel's commitment to quality, from the Molton Brown toiletries to the readily available refreshments, despite some operational inconsistencies.”
