Nice airport hotel, very convenient location. Quite pricey, as all accommodations in Iceland. They could offer more than one towel per guest and bigger ones

Nice hotel next to KEF. The staff was very helpful. We got extra pillows, help with the television, and were able to check in early.

We were traveling with our 10 month old. We picked this hotel because Expedia advertised cribs available. We booked a room and noted we would need a crib. A few weeks before our trip, I contacted all the hotels we were staying at in Iceland to confirm cribs for the room. All the other hotels we stayed in confirmed a crib would be available. The aurora hotel would not tell us if a crib would be available until check in. We even contacted the hotel the day we were meant to arrive and they would still not confirm a crib. It is ridiculous that you can book a room with a crib, but they won’t actually reserve a crib for you and you have to see if one is available at check in.

It's walkable from the airport but was hard to figure out which door to go out when it's dark and raining. Look for the door with a covered walkway. Once you get out on the walkway you can see the hotel. Don't like having to walk on the road after the walkway ends. Hotel is reasonably clean and functional. Staff was friendly.

COMFY and SO close to airport and car rental
We stayed here because we had an early flight (7:30am) the next day. We were able to drop off our rental car right next door and the airport is right next door. The bed was super comfy. For the first time in Iceland, we had pillows that we LOVED and were able to get a good night’s rest (albeit for only a few hours!)

It's great to have a hotel on the airport property. It was not luxurious, but the staff was friendly enough (buy Iceland standards) and the restaurant food was decent. You pay for the convenience and that was fine with me.

Uncomfortable, expensive and stuffy.
This hotel gouges you because it’s the only place within walking distance to the airport, which is nowhere near civilization. Stuffy rooms, uncomfortable beds with one pillow. Free breakfast, devoid of any creativity or local flavor. Only reason to stay here is to endure a layover, or catch and early flight. Poor.

This is an excellent property near the airport with a friendly and accommodating staff. This is far from Reykjavik, it's purpose is as a stopover for flights. It does that very well.

The property was clean and the staff was relatively friendly with the exception of a few who weren’t necessary unfriendly but cold when I checked in. Food at the restaurant for dinner was limited but good, but the breakfast was crammed with guests and options were picked over. Front desk were able to call a taxi for me to go into town which was nice since I was unable to call any of the available taxis using my non Icelandic phone number. Overall a good hotel but wish my initial interaction with staff would’ve been better.

Nothing special but got us through the night and had breakfast. 3-5 minute walk from airport, no shuttle if walking is an issue due to disability or too much luggage. Wheel chair and carts available, self serve.

Location to airport was a key factor in booking this hotel. Just came off a cruise ship & needed to be very close to the airport for an early morning departure with many travel bags.
