Beautiful hotel with very friendly & helpful staff. They helped us with every question we had about the area and made us feel at home. Everything about the room down to the small details were wonderful, they held our luggage for free, helped us request taxis, and even helped direct us to a pharmacy when we needed one on short notice.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was perfectly laid out and comfortable. The hotel was not too far from downtown to walk every day but far enough not to be loud at night. We loved it and would stay here again.

I LOVED my stay at Eyja Guldsman, though short. It is beautiful and comfortable, the staff were kind and helpful, and they offer free coffee and tea! I just wish it were closer to the city center - I switched hotels after a night, and I loved the convenience of my next place though it wasn’t as warm and inviting.

This hotel is so right around the corner from a Bonus store. It is a bit further from most of the shopping and cafes on Laugavegur St, but is not too far from the food hall. Overall, the food in the hotel was great, staff were helpful and kind, and it was very quiet. It did not have a mini fridge or microwave or air conditioning, but was perfect for our needs and did not feel stuffy in April.
