Hotels in Laugardalur, Reykjavik

Hotel staff are lovely and very friendly. Rooms are very comfortable. Food is terrific and the lobby is impressive.

The hotel is very well located, there is little room to park. But with a little patience we can get there. Just a bemol on the soundless rooms, the doors that clack all night.

My wife and I stayed here for four nights before embarking on a cruise. Room was very comfortable and was serviced every day at our request. When departing and boarding the cruise ship my wife realized that her small jewelry case was missing. I immediately contacted the hotel by email and within 10 minutes had the response that item had been located. Hotel offered to send it back to states but within a female minutes suggested that she would give item to taxi driver who within an hour delivered it to ship. Definitely will recommend hotel to others visiting wonderful Reykjavík

Check-in was pretty smooth. I was allocated the room just above the main entrance as such, it can be quite noisy whenever people get in or out of the hostel with the door slamming and some vibration felt! The bathroom and wc are fairly clean and tidy. Very cosy common area to mingle and make new friends. Kitchen has all the basic necessity. I especially like the small area right outside my room where i can have a light meal and nice view of the surroundings. Bought the unlimited bus rides ticket via the Klappid app for travel within the Reykjavik capital city and bus svc 12 is just few steps away. If time permits, you can even walk to the coastal area for sight-seeing. Overall, i am very satisfied with my 8 nights stay at Laekur hostel!

The staff of the Hostel are very responsible to solve problems for the guests. There are washing machines and dryers, and the charges are reasonable. ISK2000 is cheaper than some hostels, but the location is a bit far away from the city, and it may be inconvenient for those without a car. There is a very comfortable common area. There is also a hairdryer in the common area, so you don't have to worry about making noise to other guests at night.

The location is suitable for self-driving, free parking in front of the door. Although it is a hotel converted from a private small building, it is very comfortable to live in. The hostess is very good and nice!

Very good, convenient transportation, feasible road to various attractions, very close to the shopping street, 2 minutes from the back door of the hotel to the bus station, in front of the door is pick up and drop off bus 12

Pros: The apartment is in a great location and plenty of room and a full kitchen. Cons: we had an issue with both of our bathrooms that caused loud and extremely smelly air to be vented up from the shower drains and took continuous emails and 4 days to fix. The fix was very simple and did not require an outside service or plumber to fix it (image shows missing piece in shower drain). The staff kept referring to the sulfur smell of their water which tourists are not used to but did not come out to fully investigate the issue until I sent them a video showing a wet towel physically bubbling off the ground by the vented air. They then came out, but only fixed one of the showers, which required multiple emails again and multiple days to have fixed. The smell was strong enough that it caused us to eat out for every meal instead of using the apartment kitchen as intended. We also needed to keep wet towels over the shower drains and towels at the bottom of the bathroom door and all windows open to sleep comfortably at night due to how overpowering the smell was. The apartment is considered self-service, but the supply room was continuously empty which meant that you were unable to grab supplies when needed. The state of the apartment was also concerning as the number 9 in the front of the building was missing from the wall, which made finding the apartment take a little longer when we arrived. There was also a light fixture hanging by wires that had fallen from the ceiling that prevented the use of the dining room table (this issue was fixed the first day, see image) I have given Sif Apartments (Hemaleiga) more than a month to work with me on a fair discount for the days affected, but they are slow to respond to emails, if responding at all, and only offered a discounted rate on the first night, which comes out to around 3% off the total stay. I have counter-offered that It would be fair to at least be discounted on the 4 nights it took them to fix the drain issue as we were unable to make full use of the apartment or cook in the kitchen during this time. Not to mention the countless emails and wasted time trying to fix the issue which should have been spent enjoying the beautiful city and vacation. The fix for the drain issue was simple, fast and easy and should have been done the first day they were made aware. While Sif Apartments (Hemaleiga) has the potential to be a great choice of housing while staying in Reykjavik, I would not recommend them until they can figure out a better system for supplies, urgent maintenance requests, and more training for their customer service team as this issue could have been easily resolved the first day and a fair compromise should have been an immediate offering. If we had not been traveling during the busy tourist season (June), I would have switched rooms on the first night as the smell was overwhelming, but no rooms were available in our area for a family of 4.

I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Cabin very much, largely due to the eager-to-please staff, especially Lenny at the front desk. Rooms are small but quite adequate; I didn't expect to be spending a lot of time in the room except to sleep. (The bed was excellent.) The lobby area is a great [place to congregate and/or meet new people. After a long day of touring the many wonders of Iceland, I was very pleased to come back to the Cabin to relax. My only problem was with the continental breakfast, which was OK but lacked variety. I would definitely stay again, largely due to the terrific staff (Lenny, Bianka, Katya).

Beyond words spectacular, we are frequent guests and no wonder ! Tower suites is a paradise. We love you. We will be back soon, this is the most wonderful hotel in Reykjavík and the service is wonderful. What a peaceful, beautiful place :):):)
