    Room amenities were good, sophisticated, but room layout was awkward. Also intrusive street noise (Saturday night!).

    Convenient location, friendly helpful staff, downstairs bar

    Really beautiful hotel, very clean, modern & comfortable. Lovely bathtub in our room that was perfect after a day travelling up from the south. Had a gorgeous private spa/hot tub that was an added bonus too. Only thing missing was a coffee maker in the room, but apart from that, would 10/10 recommend.

    I had the pleasure of staying at 101 hotel in downtown Reykjavik that is member of the Design Hotels. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience there. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful, making our stay even more enjoyable. The hotel's location in the heart of Reykjavik was perfect for exploring the city. We found the hotel to be impeccably clean and the lounge area incredibly comfortable. Overall, we felt we received great value for our money. The design of the hotel is both stunning and timeless. Highly recommended!

    Guest room furnishings are less considered, less Finished, minimally appointed. No lotion in bathroom or coffee maker in room. Front desk staff varied from warm and friendly to unnecessarily scolding, a bit anxious to say no to requests, though we were granted a hot water kettle, thank you. We were hard pressed to find a place to plug it, or our phones at bedside.

    Great art in the lobby. Good bedding and robes. Front desk wrote me a lovely happy birthday note and upgraded my room to one with a balcony.

    we wanted the room to be colder so we opened the window and turned off the heat while we went out to dinner; cleaning staff closed the window and turned the heat back on bathroom is bizarrely constructed, sink and vanity is set diagonally in the room... toilet has a frosted glass swinging door.... I don't understand why hotels think people want that 🙃

    very clean, very chic, 10% discount at the restaurant around the corner which we used and which was VERY good

    - The basin is in the room and not good quality ( designed but not functional) - There is no tee and coffee complimentary. - The water pot is not equipped ( they rent free of charge b request)

    -The staff are very kind and cooperative. - The hotel location is very convenient. - Bed is comfortable and good to sleep. - Sheets and both robes are quite good quality. - Toilet and Shower room are completely separated. - The hotel staff prepared birthday messages. - The scenery was splendid

    We had a bedroom at the front of the hotel and we didn't sleep till 3am due to the weekend partying and shouting outside. The room was also really hot/stuffy as no air conditioning. Staff did eventually give us a fan which helped.

    Central location, quirky hotel with nice art features and smart rooms. Breakfast was limited and the staff advised to eat outside as not part of our package

    It was a bit noisy being in the center of town. Only an issue if you kept the windows open.

    Great location near restaurants and shopping. Easy walk to the Old Harbor. Hotel beds were super comfortable, shower pressure was terrific. Would definitely stay again. Small thing - Just wish they had firmer pillows.

    no big issues just a few little points - lack of plug sockets only had one in the bathroom and one under the desk, our fridge also wasn’t on. Room was lovely and clean the only exception is that our sink tap was a little bit dirty (very minor)

    Bed was very comfy, location was excellent - we didn’t have any issues with noise even on a Saturday night - you do hear a little noise but nothing more than you would expect from the location

    The only drawback is probably outside of the hotel's control. Our room backed onto the building beside the hotel where on Saturday night there was a rave/dance night. The noise made it impossible to rest until the function ended.

    Staff were welcoming and helpful. Having an option for breakfast was good and there was a small but good continental selection. We used the sauna area, small but enjoyable. The location of the hotel is absolutely ideal for a stay in Reykjavik. Every place we needed to access was within walking distance.

    breakfast was very nice....welcoming and interesting room for breakfast. the lounge/living room is also very welcoming and location is amazing...a cute hotel
