Hotel Ísland – Spa & Wellness Hotel

We enjoyed our stay at the Hotel Island. The staff at the front desk and the housekeeping people were awesome. The rooms were decent size, enough room for a family of 4 (two teenage daughters). The bedding and linen were excellent quality. We also used the spa, which was included with our room rate, and loved it! The restaurant has good food and cocktails. The restaurant manager from Hungary, is a super nice gentleman. The other staff, Miranda, Matilda and another bartender(can't remember her name) were delightful! The location is about 10 minutes to downtown, we had a car which is a must when visiting Iceland so we had no issues. I'd definitely recommend this hotel if you're traveling with the family, it's a good option compared to staying in downtown Reykjavik.

The staff, spa, overall the entire facility.

My family stayed in Hotel Island for one night, and my friends traveling with us stayed there for 3 nights. All of us liked this hotel. Our room was very clean and was the most spacious one among all the hotels we stayed in Iceland during a week long trip. The bed was very comfortable, the bath room has a good size and was also clean. The hotel breakfast is fabulous, it offers a good number of healthy and tasty vegetables, fruits, breads, and drinks. I definitely recommend it. The hotel staff were friendly and professional, helped with many of my small questions. The location is also convenient, it's one of the pickup locations of our guided tour and also next to quite a few restaurants. The Reykjavík. botanical garden and zoo park is within a few minutes walk. We just found out this on the last day of our stay in Reykjavík. and really enjoyed a nice walk in the park.

The hotel as a whole was amazing and clean. I wish I had asked the names of all the staff from the reception to the kitchen everyone deserves merit as they exceeded any reservations I had. Absolutely lovely people and very welcoming!! The breakfast was great value and had everything I needed from eggs,pastries, coffees,yoghurts, cereals but I dont think it had any vegan options other than milk so if you’re vegan maybe that’s something you should keep in mind :( for dinner however, I do think they had a couple vegan/veg options to which I had a soup and burger which was the best burger I had, had in a moment. The spa is very nice and it is quite small so, the best time might be when it’s less crowded but it was very nice and clean. I wish I had a massage done but I didn’t have time unfortunately :( Lastly as for location it was 40 minutes away from the airport by car.

We stayed two times. Once before our tour, and again after. The first time, as the hotel was booked out, and we have booked an additional night, we were upgraded to a very spacious room, with a separate living area and large bathroom, and a great view. The second time we were in a standard room, with a view of the carpark. Staff were very attentive. Breakfast was great.

The hotel seems expensive considering it's a 30+ minute walk into the centre. The shower/bath we had in the large room was a bit difficult to get in and out of (and we're pretty agile).

The hotel was ideally situated for the concert we were going to (Sigur Ros at Laugardalshöllin) and was a delight to stay in from beginning to end - staff are very friendly and always helpful. Room was a good size and quiet. Breakfast was good and plentiful) The hotel is just outside the city centre so you need to walk (about 30 mins but we found this an enjoyable stroll). Alternatively it is well served by taxi's which turn up within 5 minutes (or less) of being called. All of the major tour operators called here as well.

We had a "superior spacious suite" — three double beds, lots of space, and a big bathroom. It was *great* for a family, and would be a very economical choice for a group of friends traveling together. Breakfast was included, and was excellent; in addition to the traditional Nordic choices of cheese, meat, fruit, yogurt, cucumbers, tomatoes, and bread, there were pastries, eggs, American bacon, sausages, etc. Access to the spa was also included in our room rate and was a wonderful way to spend a few hours after checkout before going to the airport. It is a SPA, and not a pool: we loved the hot soaking tub and the floating pool, and were so thankful the age limit is 16 and older. It's tranquil and relaxing. As a note: the Flybus from the airport will bring you directly to this hotel. You switch from the large bus at BSI Terminal to a smaller bus. We were at the hotel less than an hour after departing the airport.

If you are exploring Reykjavik without a car, it might be a little far out of town.

We were a group of 3 friends, stayed for 4 nights in early April, could not fault hotel one bit, was very clean, large spacious room, very comfortable beds, delicious food, very friendly and helpful staff. Did contemplate switching hotels as is slightly out of town but was a lovely 20mins walk along the scenic sea path with sculptures and mountain views. Spa was small but very relaxing, separate saunas in female and male changing rooms, communal hot tub and small swimming area. Tour busses and transfers drop off and pick up from this hotel. Thoroughly recommend and would definitely rebook for another visit.

Nothing to not like!

Lovely people. Let us hold our bags at the hotel until late in the evening when we checked out. Fridge in the first room was not working so they offered us a different room with a working fridge.

Price dropped after booking but I did not check so ended up paying the higher price. Watch the prices fluctuate prior to being charged for the room. The price for breakfast was pricey but not of course for Reykjavik. We chose to eat elsewhere.

good quality and value hotel in an expensive city. the room was spacious and comfortable with a good sized bathroom. the hotel was all extremely clean. good range of products at breakfast. restaurant served very good food at reasonable prices. we had spa access with our room deal and it was very enjoyable . Efficient, helpful and friendly staff.

the location is not in the centre. we picked the hotel partly for this reason as we were happy to walk in and out of the city centre, but might not be convenient for some.

The room was a very good size for the 5 in our family, so that we weren't all on top of each other. It was comfortable and clean. Having free spa access with our room was a big plus. Although we only ate at the restaurant once, it was nice to be able to get a coffee in the lobby in the afternoon. The staff were all friendly and helpful with everything- reception, restaurant and spa. Free parking outside was also a plus.

Our schedule didn't always match with the cleaning room, so it would be nice to be able to leave a message or sign on the door about that. For example, if we went on a day trip, we'd leave early in the morning and return in the afternoon, which is when cleaning came and when we'd want to rest, so sometimes we didn't get a full cleaning service and just a change of towels. That was also our choice, but we would've had to have left the room. The breakfast room was a bit crowded our first morning so we didn't eat there often.
