Enjoyable stay, we got to view the Hallgrimskirkja from our window, which was great! The only downside to that particular room was the roof was slanted, and we were on the top floor so the ceiling was as well, so you couldnt stand all the way up in the room in about half of it, and couldnt sit up in bed in the one side.

Although the room was smaller than expected we had a fabulous view of Hallgrimskirkja, and we were within easy walking distance of the major sites in old Reykjavik. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The "queen" bed was two twin beds pushed together with a cover across the gap, but we had a comfortable sleep. Definitely add the breakfast option to your stay if you are an early riser as most coffee shops don't open until 9-10 am.

This hotel is perfectly located in the center of everything, right in front of the cathedral, making it ideal for exploring the area. There are plenty of food options around, so finding a good meal is never an issue. The breakfast is a highlight, with beautiful and modern options that are both tasty and well-presented. However, it's worth noting that there is no elevator, which might be challenging for those with heavy luggage or mobility concerns, and parking can be a bit tricky to find. Overall, it's a great spot for those looking to be in the heart of the action.

Fantastic location!!! The room was extremely cramped… very challenging for 2 people to do anything other than sit in bed. Even accessing the washroom was awkward and uncomfortable. Reminded me of a ferry/airplane bathroom. Staff were friendly and you can literally walk anywhere in Reykjavik…. Proximity to free parking was a huge bonus!

Pros: Excellent location, friendly staff, and tasteful decor! Cons: We were on the top floor (4th) and the slanted ceilings significantly cut into the usable space. I'm not sure if it would be the case or not for lower floors, but I had to wear ear plugs to sleep because of how loud the wind was at the top of the building. There are no elevators, but the staff offered to help carry luggage up the stairs. The main downside was the bathroom. It was almost unusable because of how small it was and the makeshift nature of the shower. It was literally only about 15 inches deep, with hardly enough room to stand, and the wooden doorframe to the bathroom was rotten as a result of literally being inside the tiny 15 inch shower area.

The location is perfect. Our fourth floor room was small and the slanted ceilings made it feel very cramped. There is no elevator but the staff are kind and helpful, quickly offering to bring our luggage up for us. 24/7 free coffee and a cozy lounge enhance the stay. Free parking is tricky but once the area quiets down in the evening it is easy enough to get. Would stay here again!

Excellent location and cute rooms. Sitting area at the top of the stairs on the the third floor with a view of the church was our favorite part. Only downside is that parking can be difficult and the nearby street parking is the most expensive zone.

Our stay at Hotel Leifur Eiriksson was less than average. The room was tiny as well as the bathroom. It did not look like the photos, it was basically a portal-potty inside our room. We had to keep the door to the restroom closed at all times or else the rest of the room smelled terrible like a public restroom. The water also had a very strong sulfur smell. We under the general sulfur filtering of the water in Iceland, but this was too much to be comfortable and ended up brushing our teeth with bottled water. I would not recommend staying at this hotel if you have a sensitive nose or a party larger than one.

My room was street level with church view in the building across the street, it was quiet and I didn’t have any problems getting settled in. Good variety of breakfast foods, and friendly/helpful staff. You can’t beat the location. I would stay here again next time I’m in Reykjavik!
