Bunkbed stay :)

Fun themed hotel. Note: the room had 5 twin beds, no full. May have been a misread on my part but thought there were 3 twins and a full. No biggie, me and my husband stayed in the bunkbeds for fun :) Also a nice breakfast in the morning was included.

It was a nice place to stay for our family of five, including 3 teen/young adults. We were in a cottage that accommodated us nicely. It was so quaint and the Viking theme style was impressive! The breakfast that was included was very nicely done. It was great for the value also!!

Good option for 1st or last day of vacation. 30 min to airport. Fly Bus location right outside the front door. Restaurants including a Subway and grocery store within. 5 min walk. Would not be convenient to tours, etc if staying in Reykjavik your entire time. SMALL rooms & bathrooms. Smaller than a cruise ship cabin. Again good for a 1 nt option. Too small otherwise. Bed was not comfortable. There was a metal bar in the middle so you didn’t sleep next to your partner. I thought the rooms would have Viking decor, but they did not. Very simple/ plain. Reminded me of dorm rooms. Free pkg. Walk/ jog trail along the harbor just outside the front door. “Fair” price based on Iceland standards. Especially considering breakfast is included. Viking Restaurant with the hotel. Very popular. Usually have nightly entertainment. Outdoor seating facing the water if weather permits. For $100 they have a Viking feast containing many of the typical Icelandic foods like shark, lamb etc.

The bed was really hard, and the shower was difficult to get into since the bathtub was so high. Definitely not good for people who can’t step up or down out of the shower from the extra high bathtub. Breakfast started at 7:30, which seems a little late given that they are so close to the airport, and options seemed limited. Hot tub was nice, could not find sauna. Lots of construction going on. The restaurant was good, however seemed way overpriced for what you got. Viking decor was fun, and really the only reason why we chose to stay there. The room itself was larger than most of the ones we had during our weeklong stay as well, so that was definitely a plus.

8am arrival after a red eye flight

We selected the viking hotel because we saw the attached restaurants offered unique viking dining. Beds were a wonderful welcome after a long flight. We booked ourselves in a day early so our early arrival actually was a late checkin by hotel standards. But we went right to bed rested for a few hours then did some shopping locally.

This is a fun kitschy Viking themed hotel, every where you look there are carved pieces, horses, taxidermy etc. Breakfast included and was plentiful and warm. Although to the life of me after a week of being in Iceland, napkins are like an afterthought to Icelanders… never on the table never where you expect to find them!! Be sure to try everything -at least once- if as an American, you’ve never seen such things.

Very clean hotel

The hotel was very clean. The furniture was old, I believe is because of the Viking theme, but clean. The bathroom however was modern. The breakfast was very good.
