Hotel Leifur Eiriksson

The position is excellent and the hotel itself is nice. The room we booked for was a little bit small and you don’t expect THAT shower. Anyway not a big problem. The breakfast is good. Our compliments to the manager for hiring Lydia: she knows what customer service is and how to exceed customer’s expectations. She’s been amazing and very very helpful.

We didn’t have a room that included breakfast, although we had the option to pay directly for it. We especially appreciated that we could go into the breakfast room area at any time of day to enjoy free tea or coffee. The lounge area where this was available was very pleasant, with comfortable seating and an attractive decor. That was a real bonus for this hotel.

Excellent location! Bus stop 8 was 1 minute away by foot where you can catch excursions and airport transfers. Connivence store is next door for cheaper food options and fresh fruit and tons of great shops and food options nearby. Complimentary coffee and tea 24/7 in the lobby was lovely after a long day in the cold!! Shout to Maria at reception for getting us a bus pick up with 15 mins to spare — her customer service and great personality will definitely have us coming back to this hotel next visit!

Great place. I would stay here again. It is cheap, by Iceland standards, and the location is excellent. It's more suitable for family travel and probably less so for a romantic 25th anniversary getaway, though. It feels part hotel, part hostel. More hotel then hostel, but it's a great balance and I loved this place. Stayed there with my son, but not sure if I might look for a different place if taking my wife. The breakfast is absolutely worth the extra cost. I can't imagine having stayed anywhere else in Reykjavik, or eating breakfast anywhere else.

Great location in front of the Hallgrimskirkja, close to cafes & restaurants. Very clean and nice to have tea& coffee facilities in the common lounge area.
