Top National Museum of Iceland Hotel Reviews

Center Hotels Arnarhvoll

8/10 Good

"Had a nice stay at this hotel — the staff was very friendly and checked us in quickly during both of our stays (before and after a cruise). The location is ideal and is situated directly across the street from Harpa, which is a major transportation hub for buses, taxis, and the (no longer free) cruise terminal shuttle. The breakfast buffet, if included in your package when you book, was decent and the Sky bar was nice in the evenings for a drink and even dinner or snacks. If we were to offer any criticism, the sizes of the very dated bathrooms during both of our stays were disappointing — specifically the one with a very small corner shower that had a clear plastic partition and a tiny shower head which allows water to spray all over the floor. I realize that European style showers vary greatly in different hotels, but they need to do a better job of showing honest and complete images of the bathrooms in online booking sites. I would have paid more for a room with a larger bathroom had I known. During both of our stays (we are two female travelers), the hair dryers were broken in both rooms. This was an huge inconvenience to discover this after we had already showered. This requires going downstairs to a crowded lobby and waiting in line with wet hair to borrow a hairdryer at the front desk. They acknowledge their in-room hairdryers are very old and many do not work, not acceptable, given what we were charged per night to stay there."

Þingholt by Center Hotels

8/10 Good

"I stayed at Thingholt hotel 2 years ago and again this past week. The staff is friendly and the spa is great. Unfortunately, the gym is limited and in disrepair. It only consists of damaged stationary bikes, weights, and a few other accessories. Additionally, the rooms could use a bit of updating."

Reykjavik Residence Apartment Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel/apartment was in a great location, the one bedroom unit worked perfectly for our family of 4. The couch bed was very comfortable, more comfortable than queen bed in the bedroom. The bathroom was clean and comfortable. The location cannot be beat. We walked everywhere on the days we stayed in Reyk. Parking was fine if you know where to go and how to pay each day. Only suggestion is to add a small cart or somewhere to put toiletries in the bathroom as there was no countertop or vanity. of course, everything in Iceland is extremely expensive, but we knew that going in. Great stay, would stay again."

Hotel Odinsve

10/10 Excellent

"We booked Hotel Odinske on the advice of Rick Steeves. The location is absolutely perfect. So close to everything. The staff were outstanding!!! They answered my emails immediately and were always willing to help. Front desk staff went above and beyond helping us get to each destination we were looking for. The breakfast was amazing!! Kudos to the chef and staff."
