We stayed here on the last night of our trip and regretted it. Had it been for more than one night we would have found a different place to stay. Rooms were not as pictured. Yes, we picked the “small room” but there genuinely wasn’t more than 2 feet to walk beside the bed. The bathroom was so small you were practically showering while sitting on the toilet. Walls were so thin I was kept up by our neighbour snoring in the next room. The place was old, smelt of sulfur and the disinfectant chemicals they use. It was nice to be by the water, but nothing in this area stays open later than 8pm and English is much more difficult to come by than in the rest of the country. Our most expensive stay of the trip and by far our least satisfactory.

Loved staying here. Enjoyed the viking theme throughout the hotel and restaurant. The location was super convenient and out of the city in such a cute town by the water. Reasonably priced, clean, and wonderful customer service. Breakfast was included, and there were plenty of options. Everything tasted delcious. I was able to view the Northern Lights across the street over the harbor. Karolina, who worked overnight at the front desk, was very helpful and kind. I would absolutely stay here again. The only complaint I have was the lack of power outlets in our room.

Look, this isn’t a luxury property, and if that’s what you’re expecting, you may be disappointed. But if you’re open-minded and looking for a good value for a night or two, it’s worth considering. Overall, we enjoyed the experience. Here are some pros and a few cons. The Good: The staff is very friendly, the location is convenient for both the airport and getting outside Reykjavik, and the kitschy design is fun. The Cons: The bed… we were upgraded to the Viking Village, which we appreciated, but the beds were almost unsleepable for us. They are very firm—I’ve seen firm beds around the world, but this was on another level. Also, the cabin is more “glamping” than hotel, which was fine for us for two nights but might not be ideal for everyone. Finally, the breakfast was just not for us. Compared to other hotels in Scandinavia, it felt lacking and a bit dated. Overall, we felt we got great value, and if we needed a short stay, we’d consider it again.

For the price, really a great option. If you have access to a car, it is close enough to Reykjavik and closer to the airport, which we liked. Very quiet area with free hotel parking. Breakfast was filling. Our favorite part of the stay was the hot tub and sauna, which we enjoyed several times during our stay. Not the most modern hotel bathroom we’ve ever had, and you do need to book a certain type of room to have a fridge if that is important, but overall worth the price.

Cute hotel with lots of Viking theme. Breakfast included hot diy waffles and cold cuts and pastries, continental breakfast was simple. WiFi worked great. The room was smaller than anticipated but great for one night stay before a flight. They have great instructions about the sulfur smell and smoke alarm sensitivities. Building has an elevator and parking if the front is full uses the Viking restaurant lot

Excellent hotel and Viking restaurant. Staff were so kind, friendly and helpful. Room was clean and beds very comfortable. Breakfast was nice and had lots of variety. Dinner at the restaurant was enjoyable too. Bit of a trek from Reykjavik, but public transportation was easy and cheap. Pallett coffee shop near by was also worth noting. Very nice. NB: Cabs very expensive if you do an Aurora tour and no public transit (ends before midnight).

Fun themed hotel for our last night in Iceland. Room was very small as hotel is older. We had dinner in the restaurant which was excellent. There was several large groups of kids staying and eating when we arrived yet we still received excellent service in the restaurant. Complementary breakfast was ok compared to other hotels. Only thing to improve was the bed. Very uncomfortable and was just 2” foam over the mattress base on 2 twins with wood frames pushed together for a king. The wood frames made for a hard lump in the middle. Will note we had 2 twins for king bed at 4 other hotels but with regular mattress it wasn’t an issue.

The staff at the front desk upon arrival were not very welcoming, just doing their job. We arrived early and had to wait for our check in, after a couple of ours we asked and were able to check in to our room. Not much in the area other than a small mall and grocery store. It is advertised as a Viking Village so I should have checked it out more. Nothing but the hotel and nothing to do. You would only stay here if you had a car. Stayed there for 4 days and they never came once to empty the garbage or change towels, they say it is for the environment and if you want this service to put the card on your door. We did at 9am and by 2:30pm they still did not come. I gave up and we brought them the garbage. There is a restaurant that is Viking Style, the first night was not that impressive, but on our last night the restaurant was more lively and we had a good server, that brought us fresh bread and helped my daughter out with her gluten allergies. They offer you a complimentary breakfast, which was ok, but the coffee cups were the size of salt shakers and you had to refill them very often to get the same amount as a cup of coffee. Overall I would say this is a place for you to stop over on your travels if you are looking for an affordable hotel. Not a place to stay for multiple days.

The theme was awesome and attention to details fantastic. The bedroom itself was small. There were no night stands, and no room to get off the bed. The bathtub is very high and can be difficult to access. If you are taking a shower, no matter how you are placing the curtain, water will over flow all over the bathroom’s floor.

The only thing Viking was the first floor and lobby, but the rooms were not. They were a basic standard studio room that were extremely plain and not decorated. The room was hot and since it’s next to main road, pretty noisy after opening windows. Parking is a whole ordeal because there’s constructions and not enough spots to park. Staff were nice but I probably would not stay again.
