Grótta Northern Lights - Apartment & Rooms provides beachfront accommodations in Reykjavík.

The place was very quiet and cute decorated, You have fully equipped and cozy kitchen. You can have some coffee, tea, cereal, etc. Every room has different name on the door, with very cute keys by the way. The staff is very kind and can help you whenever you need. They invited us to a complimentary breakfast in the main property Blue House B&B - Icelandic pancakes and coffee. They also inform you if the sky is clear, and where you can catch the Aurora - next to the property 2min up the hill or on Grotta lighthouse 25 min walking. RECOMMEND Iceland is amazing. 🇮🇸❤️

Set in a building dating back to 1916, this Reykjavík guest house is within 5 minutes’ walk of the popular Laugavegur shopping street. Both WiFi and private, on-site parking are free.

Location was amazing! Only 10 minutes from the main tourist areas in Reykjavik but in a neighborhood so it wasn't too busy. We found free street parking literally right across from the place as well. The building is beautiful and the rich history is very cool!

Located in the calm Thingholt neighborhood, this family-owned guest house is in Reykjavik is just 1476 feet from the shopping Laugavegur Street. Harpa Concert Hall and Conference Center is 0.7 mi...

The location was good, near bus stop 8, easy walking distances in the city. My bed was comfortable. There were plenty of hangers. The shared bathroom didn't present any problems, rarely ran into other guests. The breakfast was decent. You had to be there early for some of the items offered as they were not replaced once gone. I liked having a frig, sink and some dishes in the room.

    The hosts were wonderful and so helpful and friendly. They encouraged me to do some of the activities in town (like the Oceanside hot baths). It was an experience I might have skipped and it was just wonderful. The house is quiet and super clean and comfy. But the friendliness and helpfulness of the hosts really made it a special stay. Thank you

    Fully equipped home away from home. Heaps of room. Warm and welcoming. Info on local attractions. Friendly hosts. We were only at the start of our trip so didn't need to use the excellently appointed laundry washers and dryers. Appliances generally all very modern. The location was very quiet, no traffic or neighbour noise.

    Cozy, nice, quiet, near the ocean, Tata the dog, great location to view the Northern Lights if they appear. We went as a group of four (two couples) and it was great.

    Small guesthouse - only 2 rooms, so even though the bathroom is shared, it's clean and cozy. The owners are wonderful, very nice, polite, introduced everything well, even prepared bed and toys for the baby. There was a cozy kitchen with a basket of food for breakfast to be shared with the other room. Very quiet. The area is lovely too to walk around to the lighthouse.

    Hosts has been extremely friendly and helpful. The place is spotless, and the kitchen was very well equipped. We could also use the washing machine and drier. The guesthouse has two rooms, a double and a tween bed and a very cosy living room. We enjoyed every minute and were very sad not staying longer. It was one of the best guesthouses we saw in Iceland.

    This was a great location for a short weekend- not a bad drive from Keflavik, close to Reykjavik with much more peacefulness, access the Snaefellnes Peninsula is ideal from here. Groceries and petrol in town. The property has plenty of parking for guests, the hosts were very accommodating and let us check in a bit early. Wonderful little kitchen set up and comfortable space for two for a weekend. We appreciated the blackout shades for the midnight sun.
