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.

The rooms and hotel were very clean! Walking to shopping and restaurants was super convenient. The breakfast was small but had many options. The offerings are the same every day that we were there. Having the breakfast included was very convenient. The only “problem” we encountered was there was no parking. We had to pay for it daily but it is free 9:00 pm-9:00 am for parking. It was still a beautiful property and would love to stay there again.

Friendly staff in a well located down town hotel. Very decent breakfast. Duvets are super warm- too warm actually for rooms where you can't open the window. Pillows very soft and quishy so we had to swap one for a cushion. Harbour is a 5 min walk.

This was easily one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at and it's right next to a fantastic bakery. The staff was wonderful and very accommodating. The breakfast was great and I would gladly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay in Reykjavik.

We had a fantastic time in Iceland staying at the Sand Hotel. It was our first trip to Iceland and we wanted a convenient hotel as “home base” as we took day trips to explore. We hope to return!
