Golden Circle Cabins

20 km from Thingvallavatn

"We loved our stay at Golden Circle Cabins. The cabin felt brand new, was very clean, and had tons of windows, which made it feel like we were surrounded by nature even while inside. The beds were comfortable, the water temperature was great, and the kitchenette had just enough of what we needed. Check-in was super easy, and the location was perfect for ending our Ring Road trip before heading into Reykjavík the next day. It was a lovely, peaceful place and an amazing way to start wrapping up our...

Top Thingvallavatn Hotel Reviews

Miðgarður by Center Hotels

6/10 Okay

"The staff here were really friendly and helpful, and the breakfast and spa were both great. There were definitely parts of the stay we enjoyed. That said, overall the hotel felt more like a 3-star experience than what we were expecting for the price. We paid extra for the “upgraded” rooms, but they still felt a bit rough around the edges and not especially updated. The biggest downside was the construction happening directly outside our room basically all day. It was really loud, and we were surprised there wasn’t any heads up about it before arriving. You could even hear the construction noise from the spa, which took away from the whole relaxing atmosphere. The location also wasn’t our favourite. It’s a bit farther from the city centre, and the main street nearby is mostly tourist souvenir shops. Overall, not a bad stay, and the staff were genuinely lovely, but it didn’t quite feel worth the price for us."

ODDSSON Midtown Hotel

8/10 Good

"Overall, we had a good stay here. The hotel was very clean, the bathrooms were nice and modern, and the common areas were spacious, comfortable, and well maintained. The rooms themselves were definitely on the smaller side — more of a “just enough space for your things and a place to sleep” setup — but that honestly worked fine for us since we were out exploring Reykjavík most of the day anyway. The continental breakfast was really great and ended up being one of the highlights of the stay with plenty of good options before heading out for the day. The only real downside was parking. The parking garage is very limited, and if you manage to snag a spot, consider yourself lucky. If you’re out exploring Reykjavík all day and come back later in the evening, finding parking can definitely become stressful. Aside from that, though, the stay itself was clean, comfortable, and convenient."

CityHub Reykjavik

10/10 Excellent

"Here’s a more polished, slightly posh-British version with that warm, gracious travel-review tone: I rather embarrassingly managed to book my stay for the wrong day and only realised my mistake upon arriving at the hotel. The front desk staff could not have been more kind or accommodating. Although the hotel was unfortunately fully booked, they happily stored my luggage while I worked out an alternative plan, and even offered use of the shower should I decide to head straight to the airport. Sadly, because the booking had been made through Hotels.com, neither they nor the hotel were able to cancel or amend the reservation. Nonetheless, the receptionist went above and beyond — she even contacted a guest who had not yet arrived, as there was one remaining reserved room, to see whether they still intended to check in. The level of service at CityHub Reykjavik was simply sublime. I stayed here previously and found it wonderfully comfortable, and this experience only reinforced my impression. Exceptional hospitality and genuinely lovely people. A tiny lapse in my planning; a masterclass in customer service."

Reykjavik Lights by Keahotels

8/10 Good

"Hotel conveniently located if you need parking and will move around out of Reykjavik. Staff EXTREMELY friendly, very helpful with a smile in their faces. The room is too small. I was expecting a little more comfort for the price we paid. Bed is comfortable, just 1 pillow per person and 2 small separate blankets. Might be cultural, but we thought that unusual. The bathroom is also small. Breakfast very good, wonderful breads and a few local delicacies."

Arctic Comfort Hotel

6/10 Okay

"Clean modern room but VERY tiny sink so washing anything more than your hands results in water down your front and on the floor. No shelf or even a single hook to place toiletries or towels on in the bathroom. Sadly someone chose design over functionality. Room did include a fridge, kettle, coffee maker and mugs & glasses. Also no elevator and stairs and hallways are filthy and missing the carpeting. Good space in room for stowing gear. So some very good features and some aspects poor; hence the average over all rating."
