Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Not in the city centre — You're in Reykjavik East, roughly a 30-40 minute walk to the centre or a short drive. The nearest bus stop is 400 metres away.
- Comfort and facilities are the weakest categories — With comfort rated 7.5 and facilities 7.6, the rooms and on-site amenities are decent but not standout — expect basic, functional spaces.
- No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a dog or cat, you'll need to look elsewhere.
- Check-in window is limited — Reception is open from 15:00 to 23:59, so if you arrive late at night, you'll need to plan ahead.

8.3Verified guest“The staff were friendly, helpful, and just lovely. The room was cosy and had everything needed. There was a well-equipped kitchen and plenty of quiet corners. The atmosphere and cleanliness were great.”
8.3Verified guest“Good distance from the city centre if you have a car. The beds were surprisingly long for tall guests. Staff were friendly and gave useful tips. Free coffee and earplugs were available. Clean rooms, blackout curtains, and fully equipped kitchens. Parking was free.”
8.3Verified guest“As trekkers and a group of friends, we appreciated the friendly, caring staff. The location was great, so close to the ocean. The hostel bar served a good breakfast and the matcha with oat drink was a highlight. Having a private electric socket by each bed made charging easy. Laundry could be done in a private room, and the private kitchen let us cook and eat with others, which added to the international vibe.”
8.3Verified guest“Free parking and friendly staff. The kitchen was fully equipped and the common area was big. Ideal for solo travellers, with a 40-minute walk to the city centre. There was a notice board with local events.”

8.3Verified guest“Very affordable hostel with a great team and convenient for tours. They went out of their way to help and give recommendations. It was clean, safe and full of helpful travel info. A perfect spot for solo travellers.”
