Overall we had a nice stay. The hotel staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The location is amazing, right across from the airport. The hotel itself is a bit dated but they keep it clean and the breakfast in the morning is delicious.

We didn’t stay long at the hotel, as we had just stayed there the night before our early flight, but it was very nice. The breakfast was very good and started early, so we could eat before our 7:20 am flight. Very close to the airport and easy to reach.

Within walking distance from the (KEF) airport. Use of airport luggage carts free of charge can be used to carry luggage back and forth. Adjacent to rental car parling lots for several rental companies. Safe sidewalks and crosswalks. Helpful staff.

The hotel is located conveniently close to the airport, within walking distance. A couple of things took us by surprise, such as that their lounge doesn't open till 4pm, and breakfast is only available if you prebook with reception, or have it included with your room reservation. The restaurant is also only open for dinner. Otherwise the staff were friendly and helpful, the room and facilities were clean, and we enjoyed dinner in the restaurant on our final day in Iceland.

The staff was friendly, especially Robert, Vance, and Angelina(k think that’s her name) rooms was super clean, breakfast was feo, and I was able to walk from airport in like 3 -5mi total time. Easiest hotel to sleep, shower , and rest. I think prices are a bit stiff. Please lower a bit for quick layovers :) thank you

Very clean hotel! Friendly staff especially Ismiel at the front desk. The breakfast was amazing with healthy choices and delicious pastries. The restaurant was also fantastic. There are no ice machines so you do have to get ice from the bar. The beds were comfortable, and the bathrooms were sparkling clean. There are no thermostats in the room so you have to open a window if you want air but I think this is common for hotels in Iceland. I recommend staying here. Walking distance minutes from the airport so you avoid the expensive cab fees.
