This was the tiniest room but with the most amazing view of Hallgrimskirja. The breakfast was good. The front desk attendant was extremely nice and he offered to help us tote our luggage up to the fourth floor. He also answered all our questions about the area.

Hotel rating in Expedia was very high , hence I went by that . Size of bathroom was so so compact that shower curtain would stick while taking shower , and lighting was horrible - I felt I lived in dark room . Bed was so small I felt I would fall down while sleeping ! I would have never went for this hotel if Expedia rating was not misleading :( as it was non refundable , I could not change hotel !

My recent stay at Hotel Leifur EirikssonHotel was a delightful blend of comfort, convenience, and exceptional service. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by a warm and welcoming staff whose attentiveness set the tone for a memorable experience. The check-in process was swift and efficient, thanks to the helpful front desk team who ensured that all my needs were promptly addressed. Throughout my stay, their friendly demeanor and willingness to assist made me feel right at home. One of the standout features of Hotel Leifur Eiriksson was its immaculate cleanliness. From the lobby to the corridors and, most importantly, the guest rooms, every corner exuded a sense of freshness and hygiene. It was evident that the housekeeping staff took great pride in maintaining the highest standards of cleanliness, which contributed significantly to my overall comfort and satisfaction. The hotel's location was also a major plus, offering convenient access to all attractions, dining options, and transportation hubs. Whether I was exploring the city or simply seeking a quiet retreat, Hotel Leifur Eiriksson provided the perfect base for my adventures. However, one aspect that slightly detracted from an otherwise excellent experience was the temperature in the room. While the accommodations were impeccably clean and well-appointed, I found them to be a bit chilly, especially during the nights.

Excellent location and very helpful staff. We ended up needing to add a night to our stay and the hotel was extremely accommodating and even made changes so we did not have to change rooms for our extra night. Only downside was the water in the room had a sulfur smell / taste to it which was unexpected.

We only stayed for one night and we had a church view. The location is great, the staff is very nice. However, that bathroom reminded me of being on a cruise ship. It was also the only place I took a shower where the water smelled like sulfur. I wouldn’t stay here again. There are much better places in Reykjavik.

The hotel was clean and quaint. Breakfast food was okay and there was access to hot drinks 24 hours which was great. No restaurant at hotel but there is a bar, guessing not fully stocked by the look of it but adequate. Close to bus stop 8 for different tour pick up or airport transfer drop off.

Only stay here for location.
Best thing about hotel is location and there is free parking next to the church however the breakfast wasn’t great, the bed is uncomfortable and pillows were hard. The shower water leaks all over the bathroom floor so it feels like you’re in a camper van or something. Pretty small rooms as well. The receptionists were very nice and location was perfect. But I wouldn’t stay here again.

This is what would be considered a Boutique Hotel, which is an old property that has been renovated a number of times. The rooms are all unique in plan, are all somewhat small, and small bathrooms. That being said, the location is directly across from the main citadel which is a magnificent edifice, and within easy walking distance to shops and restaurants.
