Sand Hotel was a "last minute" addition to our Reykjavik trip. This hotel did not disappoint. The rooms were spotless, modern, and super comfortable. Black out blinds were perfect and the beds were some of the best in Iceland. Super close to shopping, several restaurants and desert locations. I bit of walk (8-10 minutes) to the airport transfer pickup but it is all down hill so it is not a hard walk. Did I mention front desk staff here are amazing! Highly recommended.. Stay here!

Room was very clean but smaller than I anticipated. Breakfast very good. I thought there was a restaurant, so we were not able to eat there later in the day.

Lovely hotel, easy walk to everywhere. Reykjavik bus station an easy 20 min walk. Breakfast was excellent and there was even a table with pastries, fruit, tea and coffee on the morning we left (before breakfast started) which we found to be very thoughtful and it was definitely appreciated! Very quick and easy check in and out. We would absolutely stay here again if we return to Iceland.

I rarely write hotel reviews, but this is such a gem of a hotel. Perfectly located in the center, very helpful staff, a great restaurant attached with amazing baked goods and lunch options & an excellent breakfast buffet. The room was very comfortable (I had the smallest, least expensive option). Really a great find.

A very pleasant stay. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Clean, well appointed rooms. Perfect for walking around town and transport to the airport. Highly Recommended.

We enjoyed our stay her and would stay again. It is in the heart of downtown on a non-drivable section of the downtown. This makes it a little difficult re luggage loading/unloading but the hotel is well worth any minor inconvenience. Being downtown, especially weekends, it can be a little noisy if you retire early. But again, such a great hotel and so accessible to everything in Reykjavik city.

This hotel was fabulous and we would definitely stay here again. Of particular note was the very convenient walkable location and the absolutely fantastic breakfast offered every morning. Everything was spotless and we very much enjoyed our stay. There was no designated parking but I had no trouble finding street parking.
