"The Double Deluxe Rooms are basic but cosy, with large windows overlooking Laugavegur, soft beds and small-but-functional tiled bathrooms. Guests also have access to the top-floor balcony cafe."
Frommer's
"This lively, HI-affiliated hostel with a clean, minimalist vibe has become something of a hub of backpacker activity in Reykjavík. Most come for the four-, six-, and eight-bed dorm rooms."

"The four-storey Grand Hòtel Reykjavìk offers comfortable, modestly furnished rooms, attentive service and all the requisite creature comforts in a quiet setting outside of the centre."
Star Service
"This hotel, with a 14-foot tower of sleeping rooms and a light-filled atrium lobby dotted with bright-red leather seating that extends across the two buildings, is a mecca for big groups."

Star Service
"Close to the main bus station, at the top of the shopping street, and a five-minute drive from the city center, this hotel provides good service and quiet accommodations at moderate prices."
