One of the best hotels we have stayed in. We has the family suite - really well equipped, beautifully furnished, great space and a lovely breakfast basket each day placed in the fridge and fresh bread each morning. We could sit and enjoy our breakfast when we wanted which was really nice. Great Nespresso machine too!

It was our second time staying here, and we loved it once again! The breakfast is incredible and provides plenty for lunch or late night snacks. It’s always so clean and comfortable and well located. Everything, including the bus stop, is nearby. We’ve stayed in two different buildings now and were happy in both. We hope to come back next year!

Amazing, our second stay at Reykjavik Residence! Staff are so helpful. Can’t do enough for you. There was a maintenance issue with one of our original rooms so we were offered upgrades on all rooms to junior suites…..wow, they were beautiful. Will recommend you to anyone I know who wants to go to Iceland. Thank you.

Our stay at the Residence Hotel was perfect - having a little apartment made us feel like we lived in Reykjavik! The property and room were clean, well maintained, and nicely furnished. It is directly off of the main road so plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. We signed up for the daily breakfast, which was amazing. Some of the best bread and cheese we've ever had. We will return again!
