Top Reykjavík Cathedral Hotel Reviews

Grandi by Center Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"Ideal location to walk around the hub of Reykjavik! Very modern hotel with friendly staff. We opted for paid parking on the street but there is a free lot a short walk away."

Center Hotels Plaza

10/10 Excellent

"The property was in a perfect location easy to walk to everything in town. Access to buses to do trips around Iceland. The breakfast was amazing. The staff were always available to help with easy check in & out. The staff was readily available to answer questions & fix cocktails whenever needed. It was a great hotel. I highly recommend it. The room was spacious & clean.."

Radisson Blu 1919 Hotel, Reykjavik

8/10 Good

"Great hotel. Two things prevented me from giving 5 stars. The shower floods the bathroom. Luckily we showered in the morning and left for our excursions and the bathroom was cleaned by the time we got back. But we had to step in puddles and throw down towels while we got ready. Serious design flaw. The second was the noise on the street. I understand the hotel can’t control this and we should expect a little bit of this when booking a hotel in the middle of the city. But maybe some better sound proofing on the windows would help. Or even a fan in the room to drown out the sounds outside. We couldn’t fall asleep until after 3 am and I’m not a light sleeper."

KEX Hotel and Hostel Reykjavik

10/10 Excellent

"I love this place!!! 100% reccommend!"

Fosshotel Reykjavik

8/10 Good

"Yes good."

Hotel Reykjavik Saga

10/10 Excellent

"Reykjavik Saga – A Wonderful Stay! Reykjavik Saga is a wonderful hotel that is modern, clean, and exceptionally well-maintained. The rooms are spacious and generously sized, which was an important consideration for my family and me. One of the things I particularly loved was the location. The hotel is right in the heart of downtown Reykjavík, making it convenient to explore the city, yet tucked away from the noise and bustle. The staff were extremely helpful and accommodating, assisting us with tour arrangements and transportation around Reykjavík. We also appreciated the convenience of being able to store our luggage at the hotel for the two days we checked out to explore the South Coast. And the breakfast selection was excellent! 👍 Overall, we had a wonderful stay, and I would highly recommend Reykjavik Saga to anyone visiting Reykjavík."

CityHub Reykjavik

"Excellent location and very spacious pods! Would absolutely stay here again!"

Hotel Borg by Keahotels

10/10 Excellent

"A charming hotel in Old Reykjavik. Around the corner from Laugavegur Street where there are many shops and restaurants. Be advised there is no restaurant within the hotel. The breakfast buffet is adequate but nothing great. The front desk were exceptionally helpful with my questions including how to get around, catch a city bus, etc."

Reykjavik Residence Apartment Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great hotel and staff. The only issue was the lack of street parking in the evenings (the hotel doesn’t have dedicated parking). It’s in downtown with a lot of shops, which makes it convenient for shopping but tricky to find parking."
