Going to just start this off by saying there was no elevator, with a 3 story walk up I felt this should have been highlighted better and a warning before booking made now on to the important stuff; Location location location and you could not beat this one. Was it a bit tricky to spot yes but it is behind another building which added some privacy given how central it was located. I also didn’t receive check in instructions until the day before after finding a blurb on Expedia that you need to contact the hotel 48hrs ahead. Despite this the instructions are crystal clear and made it much easier to find. There is no parking but Reykjavík is a nightmare for parking and you’ll probably need a car so hopefully long before booking you’ll be aware of this and it won’t come at such a blow. the apartment itself could not have been cuter, very Scandinavian in decor. all the space was welcomed as were the many appliances. bed was cozy. we were expecting a smell to the shower based on previous reviews and a different place we had stayed but were pleasantly surprised to find incredible water pressure without the sulphur. no noise issues noted and we stayed on a friday night before an early morning flight. overall would highly recommend if youre looking for space location and dont mind stairs

Great location with everything you could ask for. The host was very attentive through email and it was easy to get into. We were a family of 3 and it worked great, we had a little more privacy’s than a regular hotel room and we loved the towel warmers! The apartments are little tucked in, but when looking at the parking house map we figured it out. My only advisory is that there is no parking on site and you need to park at a parking house which is pretty much right beside it and over night parking is very reasonable, unlike the drinking and eating haha. The only issue with the parking is that it closes from midnight to 7am. We had an issue one day but parked elsewhere hoping we wouldn’t get a ticket, and hopefully we didn’t. If anyone can advocate for a 6am open for that parking house (garage) that would be great, as most people visiting Iceland may have a day where they have an early morning tour. Thanks for the great stay!

Excellent location for where we were staying! It is hard to find at first and the basement unit needs to fix their blackout shades and the bathroom door made a lot of noise and hard to open as well as had to shower in the dark since the motion sensor stopped while showering.

The location was nearby all stores and restaurants, and the appartement was clean and had all the required amenities. The only thing was the balcony view looked out onto green bins/garbage bin but that was minor since again we were so close to the Main Street. Would highly recommend people staying there and the team couldn’t have been more helpful. They responded in a timely and polite manner via email. Would love to go back!

Pros: Property was right in down town so it was easy to get arround. Property access was easy with entrance code. Parking house was just beside Property, just it was less room for parking. Cons: Pictures of apprtarment did not match to actual room items, room lights were so dim, wash room light was turning of very quickly. Bed was not very comfortable, floor carpet and sofa were dirty. Less hangers for two people.

The property is central, clean and comfortable, however, there is no luggage storage and check inis very rigid, the access code does not activate until 3pm exactly even thought the property was cleaned and ready ( we tried at 2.45pm). I had to repair the bathroom sensor light and the sound on the TV needed configuring as the sound bar was not working and despite all this when I asked for a 1 hr later check out we were told 30 euro for an extra 2 hrs.

We stayed at the Ice Apartments in Reykjavík in late August. It is centrally located in the city center, there is ample street parking, and the apartment itself was very clean. The staff at the Ice Apartments were also very friendly, responsive, and helpful. I would absolutely recommend the Ice Apartments.

Decent inside, dirty outside
These apartments were nice inside and clean. However, there was a noise coming from the heating unit through the day and night that made it hard to sleep. Also, it is back in an alley and there is a fair amount of trash and other items strewn amount so it wasnt a very welcoming place from the outside. No elevators were difficult for the older folks in our group. The location and cleanliness were the main redeeming qualities.

Nice apartment but VERY noisy and located in an alley with trash and graffiti everywhere. Not a great immediate environment. Check in is contactless and easy. You have to take out your own trash end of stay or you’ll be fined.

Great location. Comfortable beds. Contactless checkin/out. Helpful phone support as we got stuck with the laundry machine which is a mystery, especially if you are used to the big/fast ones in the US. Overall a good stay but keep low expectations on the laundry :-)

The apartment was very well situated in the center of Reykjavik so easy to walk to restaurants, stores, small grocery store… Beautifully decorated and very comfortable with all you can need. The beds were comfortable and the sofa bed was like sleeping in a regular bed. We parked in the parking garage situated next to the apartment per host suggestion and it was very convenient.
