Enjoyed our stay, only thing that could have made it better would be a fan. It got a little stuffy at night. Overall great stay

My stay at ALVA Apartments Hallveigarstigur was absolutely amazing. The apartment was spotless, modern, and fully equipped with everything I needed from a full kitchen to comfortable bedding and blackout curtains that made for perfect rest. The location is unbeatable, within walking distance to downtown attractions, restaurants, and shops. It truly felt like a home away from home. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Reykjavik!

Very cute place. I would def stay here again. There was some construction early in the morning but other than that no issues. There was a grocery store next door with was helpful. Stores were in working distance. My only complaint would be a general thing in Iceland which was parking was hard to find during the day and it was $15 every 3 hours.

If I could give this hotel 10 stars out of 5 I would, this is the best location I’m surprised they’re not charging more. The good the kitchen is excellent, the living room is excellent, the view from the penthouses are excellent, the fixtures are all super modern and very premium the bathroom had a washer and drier just everything about this place was excellent, if you’re reading this review coming from America you have to stay here no need to do any more research. The only bad is bedroom is right by the walkway and so if it’s summer and you open the window you won’t get that perfectly quiet serene sleep if you chose a penthouse but by 9-10pm things get quiet so if you’re an early sleeper don’t stay here if you want to be in the center of it all with premium everything stay here.

I loved the safety features of the property. Every door had a code to enter. I appreciated the elevator that was available. There was a grocery store right next door and many of local restaurants and tourist attractions were near by and within walking distance. The only bummer was parking, but that's an issue all over Reykjavik. Good thing is parking is free from 9pm-9am, so if you plan a fun filled day you could potentially avoid paying for parking. My only recommendation is maybe having a laundry area and more bathroom towels readily available. I would highly recommend staying here.

Nice apartment. Well stocked. Close to grocery and main tourist spots were walkable. Parking was not in the same premise but found a parking garage nearby.

Highly recommend. I enjoyed my time at this property. It was well suited for 2 adults and 2 small children. It was right around the corner from the Main Street in downtown Iceland. Easy to walk to shops, restaurants and very centrally located to get to different activities in a short amount of time. Would definitely stay at this property again.

Really nice room, both bed and pullout sofa were very comfortable, and the location was perfect. I had emailed ahead about parking and got a prompt and detailed response. Also received detailed entry instructions so that was smooth and very easy!

Location is fantastic and the apartment is really beautiful and comfortable. The bed is so comfortable and we slept so well, bathroom is spacious and the shower is so big, we only stayed 1 night but would have love to stay longer. Would highly recommend staying here and especially if you want to explore around downtown cause it’s prime location

This was a perfect location to enjoy Reykjavik by foot. Literally on top of a grocery store, and a short walk from an endless number of restaurants and bars. We got to enjoy three nights here as we reset after doing the Ring Road, and the extra room was appreciated as we repacked for the flight home. Parking was easy in the neighborhood, and if you go a block further away, you can save a ton by parking in zone 2.

Great Property! Right next door to the Kronan Grocery store, which is perfect. Walking distance to everything. Comfy beds. Amazing balcony. Nice hot tub. Kitchen has lots and pans, plenty of dishes and cups, glasses etc. washer dryer was a nice bonus. I would definitely give this place a look.

Good location, near city center. Overall, the apartment is satisfactory considering everything is expensive in Iceland. The unpleasant experience I encountered was the virtual check in. Without a real front desk, it took 3 hours to resolve all the issues with payment and door lock codes.

Location in the city is good, and self check in easy enough. So disappointed on walking in to room 308. After reading all the flowery description about Alva being pinnacle of luxury meticulously crafted, breath taking city views, sophisticated atmosphere, it is nothing more than a standard 3 star apartment room, with a view over a large double carpark, exterior refrigeration fans and a truck loading dock (most of the level 3 apartments on that side of the building will have similar view) and as the Alva is on top of a supermarket the noise of fork lifts and truck staff moving things in and out of the supermarket in the mornings is very disturbing. There is no light in the entry/wardrobe area and its very difficult to see inside the wardrobe, the small eating table has stains over the surface. Maybe on 4th floor, on opposite side of the building you may see some city sights. I really wish that owner/s of these investment apartments would not be misleading in the website and booking platforms' description. It is very pricy for what you get and and disappointing. I would have added photo but doesnt give oprion from gallery.

There were 3 locks to enter our apartment. We felt very safe inside and the neighborhood was also safe. Places to eat were close and easy walk. Plus just a few blocks to airport drop off and also to get to the hop on hop off bus stop. No views but it was still a nice place.

The location was amazing! We were literally a ten minute walk from anything we wanted to do in the city. The only downside was the stocking of the grocery store next door. Every morning there was the rattle of pallet jacks and some kind of trash compactor Despite that we would definitely stay there again. We had such a good time during our visit.

I liked that the area was very quiet as Iceland typically is, but the condition of the property and the apartment itself could have been cleaner. The room was very dusty/dirty. I used my Clorox wipes and it was as if it were cleaned for the first time.
