Very good hotel. Needed a room for 5 which most hotels can't do but got a great room with two double beds and a sofa bed. There was a comfortable seating area and table plus kitchenette and a good coffee machine. There was plenty of space for everyone and the location is fantastic, literally a two minute walk from lots of bars and restaurants. Would highly recommend.

Staff were nice and the room was clean and had great facilities. The issue was the noise levels. Everytime someone walked it sounded as if they were stomping and periodically when I presume another room used their facilities a mini waterfall sound came down. Overall it's a wonderful place but the noise is too great and even with wearing earplugs to bed it was too loud.

Beautiful hotel. Close to shops and restaurants. Spotlessly clean. The only issue was the kitchen area: we booked an apartment as we were bringing children and wanted to make our own meals. There was one pan, one frying pan and two burners. No microwave, kettle or toaster meant we were very limited to what to cook. I would choose somewhere else if you wish to make your own meals. However, the apartment was perfect with this exception.

This hotel is gorgeous. It's centrally located. We loved the keyless entry which meant we could split up and head back to the hotel when we wanted. The staff was incredibly helpful in locating a local laundromat and calling a taxi for the return to the airport. The rooms were spacious and bright. The blackout curtains were helpful with ambient street light.

The hotel was spotless and the rooms accommodated a family of 4. We really appreciated the kitchenette and refrigerator. The hotel was close to all the bus stops. You could walk to all shops and restaurants in Reykjavík. The staff & service was the best part of our stay! They were beyond accommodating. They made our taxi reservations, called our tour company and provided personal recommendations on restaurants. We would highly recommend Kvosin Hotel and if we ever return to beautiful Iceland we will book with them again. Thank you!

Everything about this hotel is perfect. Stylish, clean, and very central with an extremely friendly and competent staff. We also had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners and she was able to give some good local info around the area and approach of Icelanders. Highly highly recommend this hotel.

Lovely hotel in the perfect location in downtown Reykjavik. Walkable to everything. The hotel was immaculate, the room was great and the heated towel rack in the bathroom was awesome! Bring your own conditioner if you use that because they only give you shampoo and you only get liquid bath gel so also bring soap if you like that instead. And we could see the Northern Lights from our balcony one night! We upgraded to a room with a balcony. Would definitely stay here again!
