About this house rental
Do you value history, have an eye for design and would love to stay near all the local attractions in Reykjavik?
Then this property might be just right for you. This fine home is nestled in a quiet residential street within easy walking reach of Reykjavik downtown, where you will find the best restaurants and the key tourist attractions.
The house was built in 1939 as a single family residence, and as such, it is a substantial property in art deco style in one of the earlier settlements of Reykjavik. It is now split into two separate apartments and this is the upper two-floor apartment.
It is ideal for a family stay and it includes all the comforts and amenities of modern life, whilst still retaining the original character and features.
There are two large bedrooms and one for a smaller child. The master bedroom has a super king size bed (180*200cm), the second bedroom has a small double bunkbed (140*190cm - the upper bed is suitable for children only) and the small bedroom has a child sized bed (75*160cm). The private drive is heated and there is access to a laundry/utility room in the basement.
H5 is a treasured home-away-from-home and a favourite family activity are evening swims at Sundhollin, the Reykjavik Pool, located only in a 3 minute walking distance and open until late in the evening. This is great all year-round and in any weather.
The house stands at the edge of Klambratun, a local park that includes children's play areas and houses Kjarvalsstadir, a beautiful art museum with a lovely bistro. Other key tourist attractions such as Perlan (ice cave, nature exhibitions, zip-line and restaurant), Harpa Concert Hall, Hallgrimskirkja Church, boat trips, downtown restaurants and shopping streets, are all within walking distance.
The surroundings of Reykjavik offer many fantastic opportunities for day trips. The natural park at Thingvellir and the sites of the Golden Circle are classic, and a trip to one of the amazing lagoons near the city such as Sky Lagoon or Blue Lagoon is a must. If you are into some hiking, there is also no need to go far, as hike up the city mountain, Esjan, is well worth the effort! Registration nr HG-00016445.

Anna was an excellent host! The house was spacious and very clean. My son is a musician and he loved playing the piano! it is located super close to everything and we really liked the fact it had its own car parking space. Iceland is a cat culture but unfortunately me and my son are both highly allergic, and there were few cats that would come around the property which made it a bit difficult to move around on occasion. Overall it is a great place to stay and well priced for family with 2 grown kids.
