    Great reception staff and location. Very happy with breakfast, cleanliness, decor etc. My only advice is that the restaurant is thunderingly noisy, so do not plan to use it unless you're under 20! Make sure your room is not on that side of the building. Also the rooms seem generally to be on the small side, especially the single room which is very tight indeed.

    I miss the lack of kettle. Nespresso machine just doesn't make a good tea. I deducted a star because this hotel is started to show signs of wear and tear. A chip out of the chair etc. it is nit picking. Beds were comfortable and this was the end of a two week stay in Iceland but the room wasn't that luxurious end I had envisioned. You do get to use the Borg sauna and jacuzzi so we did but I am a room comfort and breakfast person. Those extras don't beat super quality bed Iinen for me. The banquette seating in Apótek is very comfortable. Hard chairs not so good. Hard chairs are by the windows so banquette every time for me. Comfort comfort comfort!

    In a country where hotel breakfasts are top tier this one for me was the winner of all those we tried. It was the cakes and pastries (yes yes not an every day breakfast but hey I am in holiday so fancy cakes for breakfast, why not?! ). Luckily we were there three nights so didn't have to gorge. Tried a selection of the offerings over the three days. The bed linen was good. We had a deluxe room but we didn't have a sofa in our room so the superior would probably have been fine. At the price point I could have paid £40 more to stay in the arguably more comfortable Sand Junior Suite. Overall, we tried two Kea hotels and would try others!

    I think after a full day of exploring, the television choices could be a lot better. Some movie channels would be nice.

    The room was a bit cramped for two. No drawers so difficult to store clothes well.

    Good breakfast but not up the standard of lunch and dinner which were excellent and unusual The location could not be bettered - charming places nearby, walking distance to museums, especially the Punk Museum, which was crazy and wonderful. Quite near the main bus stop for dropoffs and pickups for airport and trips.

    The concierge was wonderful. He helped me with directions, called taxis for me and even found a box to fit a pottery purchase to get it safely home. Icelandic people have been so good to me on this trip, I would recommend Iceland to all women solo travelers.
