This place was very kitschy (in a good way) and the room was clean. We had to ask for towels and extra toilet paper several times. The breakfast was fresh and they offered a good variety. We had issues regulating the water temperature in the room which got extremely hot. There’s construction going on the outside, so it was a little messy. The adjoining restaurant was good and pretty affordable for Iceland. The hotel was one of the highlights of our trip due to its unique decor. I hope they don’t change that about the place it’s incredibly unique/fun!

The building is very cool inside and out. The room was clean and the staff were very kind. I enjoyed my stay, however there was some construction outside my window so I couldn’t sleep in as long as hoped. But I would still stay there again in the future!

The rooms are not as nice as the work they put into the aesthetics of the outside. Odd shower arrangement, no nightstands, tv in weird spot, blackout curtains don’t fully do their job, etc. Did not try the restaurant so no comment there.

Staying at Hotel Viking was such a memorable experience! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the unique and immersive Viking-themed décor throughout the hotel and restaurant. Every corner felt like part of a living museum—so much attention to detail, and it really added to the charm. The on-site restaurant was fantastic! The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and offered a great taste of traditional Icelandic cuisine. The ambiance in the restaurant matched the theme perfectly, making the whole dining experience feel special. We also loved relaxing in the hot tub and sauna after long days of exploring. It was the perfect way to unwind and warm up, especially in the cooler weather. Overall, Hotel Viking is a fun, comfortable, and culturally rich place to stay. Highly recommend it for anyone wanting a unique experience with great amenities and food!
