Super Staff, immer hilfsbereit und aufmerksam, sehr gutes Frühstück
Betten sind super, Zimmer groß, Renovierung könnte mal wieder durchgeführt werden
Samstag Nacht war es bis in die Morgenstunden sehr laut, da kann aber das Hotel nichts für

We found the hotel nicely situated to all the activities we were interested in seeing, easy access to bus stop # 3, for transfers to the airport bus and any excursions. Also within easy walking distance to the restaurants and shops. We walked from the Purlan Museum to the hotel on our second day and it was a good walk even in the cold!
Our room was a good size, however it appeared to have been reconfigured recently as the outlets were along a wall with no table and the desk lacked any outlets within reach. Having a kettle in the room was a plus, even if I had to sit in on the nightstand to connect to power! The bed was comfortable and the room clean, however it lacked the nordic cozyness we'd seen in other hotels. Our first night was a Saturday and we could hear the sounds from a nightclub nearby well after midnight! The second night was quiet and we had a great sleep.
The buffet breakfast offered a wide variety of options and we enjoyed the quality, selection and presentation of the food, along with the staff within the restaurant. I made the mistake of not selecting the breakfast option when booking the room and therefore we paid the standard 40 E each for the breakfast buffet on our first morning as we had to be out early for an excursion. For our second morning we opted out of the buffet and purchased 2 coffees and 2 croissants from the little cafe at the front of the hotel. Although still expensive the pricing seemed to align with other food costs when eating out in Reykjavik.
The bathroom lacked hooks for towels and/or space to place your toiletry bags, under or near the sink. Better placement of the power outlets in the room.

The hotel is in an EXCELLENT location, with restaurants and shops in very close walking distance. Reykjavic’s famous hotdog stand is located right next to the hotel as well. Staff was very friendly and kind. Hotel was clean.
Although the inside of the hotel was clean, upon arrival my hotel room wasn’t properly cleaned/sanitized, we were missing some amenity items, the room bar was picked through, there was a used bottle of lotion left in one of our nightstand drawers, and the toilet had been used and not flushed. We had to do our own sanitizing before using the bathroom since it had not cleaned thoroughly.

Great location, easy to get to & from for the coach / airport & tour bus stop with a 24 hour shop around the corner if needed. Nice & warm & best of all, very quiet. The staff were very helpful & friendly & I would definitely return to this hotel for another stop in the future.

BEST OF ALL: the staff at the front desk. The young man there for our stay sorted out tours and dining reservations and showed us on a map a lovely walking tour. His advice was tops and made our trip fun and memorable. We found the rest of the staff to be very helpful and accommodating as well. Overall convenient and everything we needed. Immaculate. Excellent breakfast and excellent little coffee place as well. Good value.
No issues, will likely stay again if/when back.

Ideally positioned for the city centre and for Bus Stop 3 (for excursions and airport transfer via Flybus). Stylish and luxurious hotel. Beds were very comfortable. Maid service was top notch. Everything very clean. Security was good. We had a Premium room which was great. Breakfast was high quality and the staff kept items topped up etc.
Breakfast, though nice, was very expensive at about £28 per person, per day. Reception staff were professional but not the warmest. Nespresso machine was a nice feature although we ended up with all decaf capsules by our last day - not sure why!

The Radisson Blu 1919 in Reykjavik was fantastic. The front desk staff upon arrival 8/26 was so professional and helpful. The lobby is comfortable and welcoming. Lots of seating just to visit or wait for your transportation. There are bathrooms in the lobby, a coffee shop, work table with printer. The back of the lobby has a really nice bar and restaurant. The location is right in city center - no really- there isn’t a better location as you can walk in any direction from the hotel to your destination. The popular Food Hall is a 3 min walk. The rooms are nice sized with a really big bathroom and tub. So happy we stayed at The Radisson Blu.

The room was spaceous, the bed was very comfortable, the breakfast was superb! The staff was very friendly and booked taxi's for us, arranged early breakfast packages and were helpful at all times.
Cleaning my room and tidying my bed after one night was not necessary.

Staff is most excellent. Beds were very comfortable. Rooms were also notably comfortable. Lobby is fun, bright, social and has multiple places to sit or work. Excellent cafe with barista. Bathtub was also an added plus. The hotel is very central and close to harbor and the water. Would stay again for sure. Highly recommend!

Our suite had a very bad smell in the bathroom, after we returned. However, the reception staff fixed it for us. Also, they did not have the electric kettle and. got it to us after 2 hours.

Location is really good, breakfast is awesome, rooms are huge. Reception was always helpful.
Our room didnt get vacuumed the whole 5 days that we stayed. This is really bad, due to the fact that most trips in Iceland include some kind of sand-walking, which eventually will get into your shoes. At the end of your stay, there will be sand everywhere in your room.
Friday - Saturday night:
After 02 AM good luck sleeping. The Hotel is located near to alot of different bars and food stands.
