We found the Oddsson hotel to be clean and to have all the essentials that we need for an overnight stay. The staff was both cheerful and exceptionally helpful. We particularly enjoyed the complimentary breakfast buffet that was well managed by staff.

It was a good location but not really walkable to downtown. However there are a few restaurants, coffee houses and grocery stores that are walkable, The bus stop was right there and it was easy to use. Many tours did pickups from there. I felt the hotel provided everything we needed. It was nice to have the breakfast included and options in the evening. The lamb stew was delicious. A lil pricey but in line with Iceland prices. It was very clean and had a wonderful shower.

The room was fairly small and no chair or table and no air conditioning. We had to leave window open for air, and it’s on a busy street corner so noisy during the day, and ear plugs were provided.. bed was very comfortable and even though there’s no front desk, we got our code on email and it was easy to get into our room. Hotel is a bit out of capital Reykjavík area, but transit very close. Breakfast was great, and there is a little bar area with soup available. It was clean and we enjoyed our stay.

Disliked: Amenities
Our room was clean and had the essentials needed for our stay, however coming from Florida we are used to air conditioning, and there wasn’t any, but it turned out that opening the windows slightly helped to maintain the room temperature comfortable. The parking is on a first come first serve area and it was full upon arrival so we parked alongside the building and all was well. There are several steps to enter the lobby, you must go through these with luggage when entering or leaving the hotel, quite inconvenient. The breakfast buffet was very nice, offering different food options.

Gem close to downtown! We loved our stay at ODDSSON midtown hotel. The hotel was very clean. The young women who worked there were always cleaning and refilling the breakfast items. Breakfast was amazing and I loved the bar and soup/bread option in the evening. Beds were comfortable. We got the king bed with the bunk bed and it was perfect for our family of four with 2 teenage sons. Great restaurants nearby as well as a taxi service. Would definitely stay here again!
