A large hotel with a huge, delicious buffet breakfast. We stayed here both before and after our group tour of southern Iceland. Great hotel if you're part of a large group. The bedding was especially soft.

Bien en general
Muy bien en general, buena ubicación, aunque fuera de la parte del centro historico pero a pocas cuadras caminando.
Buenas instalaciones, aunque un poco saturados los lugares para comer.

A nothing special hotel for tourists
The hotel is quite expensive. Not near the main streets of Reykjavik; about a 25 minute walk. The breakfast is crowded and overcooked. The room is hot, no ac and the window is small and provided little cool air.
Overall, it's just ok
