Hotels near Volcano House

We just returned from a 6 day Iceland stop over on the way home from Scotland and Ireland. We rented a car and traveled the Golden Circle, and all along the southern coast out to the Glacier Lagoon. We wanted to see a much as we could in our short stay. Staying at the City Hotel put us within walking distance of all the sites we had listed to see in the city. Due to construction everywhere and streets blocked off for filming and tourist walking zones we struggled to find parking so once we parked we did not want to move the car. We walked to the old harbor, the opera house, the Cathedral and more in a day. City hotel was a perfect, reasonably priced location to stay. Loved every minute of our stay in Iceland.

this hotel was perfect for my stay, which required an inexpensive but clean and comfortable hotel with good service. my room was basic but clean, bright, and spacious. the breakfast served was excellent as were the meals in their dining room. the staff were very courteous and even booked tours for me and gave good local information. overall, i rate this hotel with 10/10 for value and comfort.

Everything was amazing in this Hotel, best location surrounded with restaurants, 5 minutes walk to the sea , very professional and helpful staff, they actually go out of their way to help you in anything you need, spacious room with fully equipped kitchenette, nice amenities and mini bar items, complimentary Juice, milk, coffee, tea, corn flex & one bottle of mineral water, very comfortable bed, I highly recommend this Hotel to Families and Solo travellers, If I come back to Reykjavik again I will definitely stay in this Hotel only. I checked out early in the morning as I had to catch a early flight and I didn’t get chance to Thank you all for making my stay amazing at Reykjavik. Thank you so much for everything and hope to see you soon.

We loved Canopy by Hilton in Reykjavik city center. The location was truly perfect. It was my second time to Reykjavik and my husband’s first. We both agreed the location was fantastic- easy walk to the best shopping and dining in Reykjavik (and, of course the church, Harpa and the Old Harbor) Parking in the garage across the street was very reasonable and convenient. We arrived very early and were able to get into our room by noon. Checkout time was also noon, which was very helpful on our last day. The room was extremely comfortable and beautifully decorated. Free breakfast far exceeded expectations - generous warm and cold buffet in a gorgeous restaurant. We would highly recommend canopy to other visitors and will definitely return!

Stayed at the hotel for three nights, the room was well equipped with hair dryer safe free wifi and all bathroom products you could need! We stayed on the top floor giving us a great view of tthe mountains and part of the city. The free bus pass from reception is a nice touch with the nearest bus stop just across the road. Reception were friendly and informative regarding wjere to go and how to get there. Inhouse information and tour desk is also helpful when enquiring about yhe northern lights. We only ate once in the hotel, dinner on the last night. The menu wasnt very extensive but the restaurant was lovely. Unfortunately my main dish of cod came out uncooked and had to be sent back but was quickly replaced and they offered dessert and christmas drinks on the house which was appreciated.

Our stay at hlemmur square was amazing!! We were there for our honeymoon, and it was the best! Located just right in front of bus stop no.10, so any pick up and drop off was super convenient. Had a few good eateries nearby, our fave was the noodle station. Supermarket just 5 mins walk away. Room amenities were sufficient! But just there wasn’t any heater in the room as it’s pretty cold. Other than that I will come back again~

Radisson 1919 boasts perhaps the finest location in Reykjavík, right in the centre of town in the thick of things. Yet it is quiet enought and shielded from the loud revelry in the main square Austurvöllur on weekend nights. The hotel is within easy walking distance of much of the best Reykjavík has to offer: restaurants, shopping, cafes and so on. The service is friendly and efficient, and there's free wi-fi in the rooms. The breakfast buffet is probably the best in town.

Excellent. The hotel was as I expected (stylish, clean, great Aveda bath products, new, cute trendy cafe for breakfasts, near the lake and downtown). Love the bright airy rooms and we were upgraded for our wedding stay. Our family had a great time. This is exactly what I wanted. The only odd thing is there are no phones in the rooms to contact reception and the towel cart stayed in the guest elevator all day.

Checked in here on my birthday and had booked a suite. Was a bit disappointed by the view since it overlooks a big construction are rather then the snowy mountains on the other side, but no big deal. The room was very modern, spacious and just what I had wanted for my birthday night. We had two other rooms and this way we had some space and sit together and celebrate. The Hotel is a bit further away from downtown then I thought, but that also is not the Hotels fault. The staff is great. Had some trouble with the Icelandic parking meter across the street, so the Lady at check in walked out with me and to assist me in getting the parking sorted out to avoid the hefty fees in the underground garage. Parking on the street was not a problem at all. Basically 10 meters from the front entrance. I also had a small accident with my rental car and the Hotel has unlimited international calls from the rooms. What a great idea! We had breakfast and it was more then plentiful, even though the hot items were lukewarm at best and I was not excited about the scrambled eggs. There was just something strange about them. All in all a great Hotel, considering the size of it, all distances were very manageable and there were no endless hallways or complicated parking lots. The only thing I was missing was a Hot Pot / Sauna. On my last stay we had much smaller Hotels and most of them had some sort of a Jacuzzi/Spa. So from Iceland's biggest Hotels I would expect that.

Very nice value. The rooms are on the small side, but they are in all of the hotels in Iceland. The included breakfast was a nice bonus. A friend stayed at a neighboring hotel that cost twice as much per night and did not come with breakfast. Food is expensive in Iceland so this helped my budget a lot. There are a lot of decent restaurants in the area that are within walking distance for lunch/dinners (this hotel only serves breakfast). The only downside is it isn't very close to the 101 area of Reykjavik where the tourist spots are. But there is a bus stop right across the street and the staff are helpful in telling you which bus to take. I didn't rent a car, but there was plenty of parking available for those that did. The rooms were fairly quiet. The hotel was full and I never heard the people on either side of me. I would definitely stay here again.

We arrived around 10-30am and our rooms were ready. Check in was very efficient and the staff good and friendly. Our room was on the 4th floor. It was clean, warm and with plenty of storage. The bathroom was fine but with a very small triangular shower fortunately its was powerful. Breakfast is good but with the smaller cups you can imagine for coffee and tea, and only large plates for a full breakfast or toast! We ate in the restaurant (20% discount for residents) and also the bar. The food was good. The bar has a happy hour from 5-7pm, (Why two hours is described as an hour I never understand) There was a good selection of drinks and friendly staff. We asked the hotel to recommend a firm for airport transfers and to book restaurants, which they did for us. Internet is free and fast. What's the 'but' then? On our first night or rather early morning the fire alarm went off and we had to evacuate the room. It was caused by a toaster in the kitchen. The following morning we had no hot water at all for a couple of hours. No explanation given. Yes these things do happen but the 'But' is because there was absolutely no apology from the hotel. No offer of a free drink, or a modest refund( which perhaps may be too much to expect) but there wasn't even a note put through the bedroom doors or an oral apology at breakfast. It was just as if these things had not happened.

We enjoyed our stay at the Baron. This is a simple, basic hotel that fullilled our needs. The location is great, close to many dining options. Our only complaint relates to a statement on the hotel's website that says the Flybus stops outside. This is not quite true, the Flybus does not stop at the hotel unless the hotel dropoff/pickup option is chosen when booking a tranfer on line.

The hotel is well located in downtown Reykjavik. The staff was courteous and helpful. Our room was large and clean. There was an noticeable sulfur smell when using the hot water, but that's to be expected with geothermally heated water. The breakfast offerings were the best among other guesthouses and hotels we have visited in Iceland. Overall a good, albeit expensive, hotel experience. While prices are much higher in Iceland, we prefer the warmth and cultural experience of (cheaper) guesthouses to hotel rooms.
