4-Star Hotels in Capital Region, Iceland

"The breakfast was really delicious, the service from every employee in the hotel was wonderful. The beds were not that great, and the rooms were too warm. I also wish they had better room darkening window coverings as it was very bright in the room. I was also a bit disappointed in the art, they advertise as an art hotel but there were multiple copies of the same picture in the hallways and there wasn't as much art as I expected. The huge bathtub was nice, but the small bathroom was hard to manage."

"Foss hotel Reykjavik is a great place, conveniently located next to Bus stop 12 where all the tour operators pick up and drop off as well as Fly bus tdrop off and pick up. The hotel is very clean and safe. I have a fantastic experience with the staff in front desk and house keeping. I was a solo traveller and I asked guidance to the front desk on some places that i wanted to go within and near Reykjavik. Tge front desk staff, he gave me suggestions and helped me book the show ticket. He gave me clear instructions and seeing my lost look , even gave me the hootel phone numbers to call him in case I run into trouble. But thanks to his clear guidance I managed to navigate well and had a great day out. This hotel is about 15 to 20mrs from city centre by walk. One day I forgot my gold chain in the room. But the housekeeping folks while cleaning did not even touch any valuable stuff that i left. It is really a very reliable and safe hotel. They have a restaurant that serves delicioys food. I ate their fish and chips and chicken salad. Both were great. The breakfast has a good spread. The hotel is very clean and well maintained. The best part is still the excellent service from the staff. My trip got rebooked and i had multiple correspondence with the staff and they were always prompt and reassuring. The only downside of the whole stay was my room. I got a corner room which had a slanted corner shape, meaning a triangle cut off from a rectangle. Though nicely laid out, i felt claustrophobic as the room size was much smaller. That room is not ideal, especially if not solo."

"This hotel easily meets a four-star standard. The facilities are great, and the rooms are very new. They offer free parking and the location is convenient. There's complimentary coffee at the front desk. Since it gets dark late, the sunset view from the floor-to-ceiling window was beautiful. I'd definitely book this hotel again next time, it's excellent value for money!"

"This stay was, to put it mildly, a bug-infested lesson. I stayed for 4 nights. The first two nights were fine, but on the third night, things went south – I started getting bitten by bugs in the room, resulting in red spots all over my body. This wasn't just me being sensitive; these were clearly visible bites that required photographic evidence (which I did take, of both the spots and the bugs). What's even more outrageous is that this wasn't an isolated incident. I later found out that previous guests had reported similar issues, indicating that the hotel has a long-standing problem with hygiene and pest control, rather than a one-off accident. After the incident, the hotel's solution was to arrange a room change. The problem is, what had to happen already happened. The room change felt more like going through the motions than actually solving the issue. Due to hygiene concerns, I personally disposed of some of my clothes and shoes, essentially paying extra for this stay. To summarize: * The room has a pest problem. * Hygiene management is questionable (and seemingly a long-term issue). * The response was delayed and inadequate. * The guest had to bear the additional costs themselves. If you're just looking for a place to sleep, you might gamble on it; but if you don't want to use your body as a test subject, I strongly recommend avoiding this hotel."

"The photos are really misleading; it looks completely different from the actual place. We booked an 'Exquisite Suite,' which turned out to be just one room with a living room, where an extra bed had been added. With the extra bed in the living room, the kitchen became practically unusable due to heavy smoke, shattering our dream of cooking our own meals. The room itself was quite small, and with the extra bed in the living room, there was barely any space to walk. It was on the top floor, with a very low attic ceiling and a small window. Soundproofing was poor; we could hear conversations from outside. The balcony door was broken and couldn't be opened, and the view was just average. Be careful with the main entrance; the automatic door opener is prone to catching hands! Check-in was in a different building. If you receive the address of the building you'll be staying in, you can have the taxi driver drop you off directly there, saving you the hassle of dragging your luggage around. To open the ground floor door, you need to pull it when you hear the mechanism (the 'push' sign on the door is incorrect). Cleanliness: Acceptable, cleaned daily. Location: Indeed excellent, right near the city center with many pick-up points for group tours. For 2500-3000 a night, I expected more space. Quite disappointed. (I was out early and back late every day, so I forgot to take photos)."

"Greater than my friends and I expected! The hotel environment and service attitude are very good. When I went to the south, I found that the power bank fell in the hotel. Because the south came back to change the hotel, I was anxious to catch the plane the next day. After contacting the hotel, the hotel staff actually helped us to send us to another hotel front desk where we lived! Super touched! ! And the facilities and room environment are really good in Iceland."

"Hotel Ódinsvé is ideally located in the city center, within easy walking distance of major attractions such as the cathedral, making it very convenient for tourists. The on-site restaurant offers delicious meals and is worth a try. However, since Iceland has 20 hours of sunshine in summer and the room's light-shielding effect is slightly insufficient, it may affect sleep quality. If you stay in the summer, it is recommended to bring your own eye mask to ensure rest. Overall, it is an accommodation option that combines convenience and comfort."

"This apartment is fantastic! It's fully equipped with a kitchen and bathroom, measures 55 square meters, and is very clean and tidy. We stayed for six nights, alternating between long excursions and city tours. We bought groceries from the supermarket and cooked our own meals, which was a huge money-saver in high-priced Iceland (where a croissant costs 45 RMB!). It also allowed us to enjoy Chinese food and rice, simple yet comforting for our 'Chinese stomachs'. For supermarkets, I recommend Bonus (the 'piggy' store) and Krónan. Krónan has fresher and a wider variety of fruits and vegetables than Bonus, plus fresh fish, so I really liked that one. It's about a 9-minute walk away. Bus Stop 12 is just a minute's walk from the entrance, right in front of the Storm Hotel. We booked three day tours (Southern Coast, Golden Circle, Snaefellsnes) and our airport shuttle pick-up from here, which was super convenient. Next to Bus Stop 12, there's another hotel with a wind-sheltered porch at its entrance, perfect for waiting for the bus and escaping Iceland's infamous winds. We took public transport to Sky Lagoon, Perlan (the Natural History Museum, highly recommended!), and Flyover. I highly recommend this apartment; it's not only spacious and comfortable but also incredibly convenient for transportation."

"I chose a room with a kitchen, which was pretty good. It had an induction cooker and bar stools, so I could cook simple dishes. There was no kettle, but there was a coffee machine. I had to wash the dishes myself to make it convenient for the next customer. Because I couldn't ensure that the previous customer had washed them very clean, I also recommended that everyone rinse the dishes themselves before using them."

"Fantastic setting, with beautiful views right outside the window. It's super clean too! A wonderful start to our Iceland trip. The location is also very convenient, with plenty of great food options nearby."
