Very nice bathroom with quality toiletries, bedroom small and no top bedding sheet.
Very very noisy on floor 2, thumping from the dining room music and also Hard Rock Cafe to rear (do not stay on level 2 or rear facing!)
Staff were very helpful at reception.
Apotek restaurant for evening meal had a great menu and very well cooked and presented staff.
Let down by the staff who did their best but appeared to be short staffed so couldn’t give you the attention or service expected at this price point.
The plates were all chipped which were used to serve both our meals upon.
This is a great hotel if you are young and want to be on the thick of the action; would not recommend for a relaxing or family break.

Excellent location - was able to walk to all the local Reykjavik attractions. My only criticisms are that the single room is smaller than I'm used to, the room was too warm, and the evacuation alarm went off in the middle of the night 2 out of the 3 nights I was there. Having said all this, I would still stay there again.

Great location! Easy to catch tour buses. Short walk to rainbow road, many restaurants, bars, shops and harbor. Great breakfast with lots of fresh food. Beds comfortable and black out curtains. Only problem was could hear music and people at night when trying to sleep on Friday and Saturday night.

Perfect location! Be prepared for no availability for early check ins…for early morning flight arrivals who need an early check in, I recommend booking a room for the night before.
Great place to stay; very clean and you’re in the heart of downtown

I was traveling alone to Iceland and stayed at the Apotek hotel. It felt very safe and the staff was wonderful! They were friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. There were plenty of dining options and the area was very walkable. It is also located conveniently near multiple bus stations making it easier to get around in Reykjavik. I would stay again and also recommend to others.

Great location as it is centrally located. Able to enjoy the city center area without needing transportation. Parking was absolutely confusing. There is none. Wish we would have been aware that one needs to "just find" parking at this place. By this time of our 10 day trip, we were not in the mood to try to find parking in a foreign country. We finally found a garage but weren't sure how it worked. Had to walk a long way with our bags to finally get to the hotel. The rooms were noce but quite small compared to the other places we stayed while in Iceland (although comparable to the other hotels in Reykjavik). Hotel is in a very convenient location, walking distance to everything in the city.
