Question 1

Which hotels in Reykjavik have the best view?

Accepted Answer

If you want to have a beautiful ocean view, look for an accommodation close to the coast on Sæbraut street. The Old harbour, an area close to Harpa Concert Hall, and lake Tjornin near Reykjavik City Hall are also great locations. Depending on what view you are interested in, remember to stay in a hotel in the centre of Reykjavik, which will be close to the most famous attractions and within walking distance of shops and restaurants.

Question 2

What are the most convenient hotels near Hallgrimskirkja church?

Accepted Answer

The Hallgrimskirkja church is located almost in the very centre of Reykjavik, not far from the Laugavegur shopping street, city hall, and lake Tjornin. Within a kilometre, you will find many comfortable hotels that will certainly meet your needs. There are even those that offer a view from the window of the famous church tower. The price and availability depend on the time you arrive in Reyjavik and the level of comfort you would like to have at your accommodation.

Question 3

Can I book a cheap hotel in the centre of Reykjavik?

Accepted Answer

The price of a hotel in the centre of Reykjavik depends on the standard and season when you come to Iceland. If you are interested in a cheap hotel in the capital of Iceland, check the offer of available accommodation as soon as possible and choose an economical or budget room option. Remember that the closer to summer the prices become higher and the availability of the best options decreases quickly.

Question 4

Do hotels in Reykjavik offer free parking, free WiFi and local breakfast?

Accepted Answer

Most hotels in Reykjavik offer a free breakfast, or as an additional option to choose. WiFi is free of charge. Parking lots in the capital of Iceland take up a small space, which is why hotels located near the main street sometimes have underground parking. Very often, travellers leave the car on the street on a paid parking zone, so it's worth getting a smartphone application called Leggja to pay for parking quickly.

Question 5

Do the hotels in Reykjavik have facilities suitable for the whole family?

Accepted Answer

Hotels in Reykjavik have facilities for the whole family. If you need anything for your children, ask the receptionist or let them know about your needs before you arrive. Among the many amenities for families, there is a children's bed with mattress and bedding, changing table, thermometer, first aid kit, storage place for prams, children's menu, colouring books, extra towels, blankets, and potty. Before arriving, find out if the hotel has everything you need.

Question 6

Are there luxury hotels in Reykjavik for the most demanding guests?

Accepted Answer

In Reykjavik, there have been luxury hotels for several years, often booked by the artists, the biggest stars of world cinema and music, as well as politicians and owners of international companies. You will find most of these properties in the city centre, close to the Old harbour, on Austurvöllur square and near the coast. These are hotels with the highest standard available in Iceland.

Question 7

Can I go on a guided tour directly from the hotel in Reykjavik?

Accepted Answer

Very often, a pick up from Iceland's capital is offered directly from your hotel. However, due to the decision of the city of Reykjavik, sometimes the meeting point is a particular bus stop, which you have to reach several hundred meters. You can find information about where your trip starts from on the voucher after booking the tour.

Question 8

Do I need to pay extra to pick up my car from a hotel in Reykjavik?

Accepted Answer

Car rentals often give you the option of renting a car in Reykjavik if you provide them with the place where you booked your accommodation. However, this means that the car rental employee will come to your hotel, pick you up, and then take you to the office, where you will sign a car rental contract. This service may cause an extra fee.
