Hotel Local 101

Great location! That was the most important thing for us. Very small hotel with very personal service from desk staff. Simple decent breakfast but not extensive. Rooms are small but well appointed.

Location very convenient to old harbor end of Reykjavik, and within walking distance of other big sights. Nice neighborhood for walking around in. Hotel staff very friendly. Convenient restaurant and bar on premises. Room very compact with somewhat inconvenient spaces to put luggage etc. Nice shower with very nice high end Icelandic herb shampoo, conditioner and soap. A real treat.

We arrived quite early and were greeted by friendly staff who did offer us the option of an early check in, as the room was ready, but for an additional fee. (If the room is already made up, this could have been waived). We passed on that and they were happy to look after our bags while we explored the harbour area. The room was good and the breakfast choice was excellent. Happy hour at the bar was also really good, with friendly and attentive staff. All round, an excellent hotel and location, with the town centre just a few mins walk away. Would stay again.

First of all, this is quite a charming and old fashioned type place, though mixed in with some modern touches. It has a great location, and there is a small supermarket literally a couple of minutes walk away. The room itself was basic, but clean, if a little dated in patches. The TV had a great selection of English language channels. My highest praise for this hotel goes to the staff though. I was unfortunate enough to become ill during my stay(nothing to do with the hotel), and the staff could not have been kinder to me, or done more to help me when I needed it. They really made what could have been an incredibly problematic time, much more bearable and less stressful than it otherwise might have been.
