Our stay at Hotel Eyja in Reykjavík was excellent. The hotel was modern, clean, and comfortable, with a welcoming atmosphere from the moment we arrived. The staff were friendly, helpful, and always willing to answer questions or offer recommendations. The location was perfect for exploring Reykjavík. We were able to walk to restaurants, shops, museums, and many of the city’s attractions while still enjoying a quiet and relaxing place to unwind after a day of sightseeing. The rooms were comfortable and well-maintained, and the breakfast offered a great selection to start each day. After spending our days exploring Iceland’s incredible waterfalls, glaciers, volcanic landscapes, black sand beaches, and charming towns, it was wonderful to return to such a comfortable hotel each evening. Hotel Eyja was the perfect home base for our Iceland adventure. We highly recommend it to anyone visiting Reykjavík and would gladly stay here again.

Amazing staff and great location. A short walk to downtown. There is a super market right behind the hotel. The breakfast was lovely l. Absolutely loved the pancakes. The place itself is a bit expensive but that is to be expected as most of the stuff is imported
