Good place to stay in Reykjavik

The hotel was great. The step up shower was small for a tall person and small for a little bit larger person leaving not much room to move. As much as we enjoyed the hotel, we did feel the absence of any onsite, concierge personnel.

This Hotel was the perfect choice for me! The staff made it easy for me to store luggage while I explored for the day as I arrived very early. There was every amenity I needed including a smart TV which was a treat! It was easy to find and easy to get to all of the sights I was hoping to see. Loved my stay!

Great value for Reykjavik

It's slightly off the centre of the city but still very walkable to ships and restaurants. It's self check in and out, but we had no problem with that. We were able to store our luggage before our check in time. The shower is very nice and the beds are comfortable. We would stay here again.

We really enjoyed this hotel! It is a bit unassuming from the outside and in the hallways, but the room was lovely! Very clean, silent, and windows opened enough to keep the room cool. Would definitely return.

Easy self check in, good communication, prompt replies, very clean, lovely room. There is construction right across the street so it was noisy when window was open, but the construction stops at 5 pm and all is well. Alva hotel is close to everything so a good location. We really enjoyed our stay! 👍👍👍
