Accommodation was lovely and spacious and well equipped if you wanted to cook in the property. Nice touches of coffee, tea, milk, juice and cornflakes already in the apartment. Only little issue we had was I hadn’t received the code to access property and emailed them, got an email but didn’t include the code, but prompt reply with it when asked. Would have preferred a keycard to access property as was wary of phone running out of charge for entering property. Would definitely recommend this property for closeness for dining, transport and sightseeing

Great little place in downtown Reykjavik! Walkable to many places downtown. A few renovations (painting) happening while we were staying there, but the painters did not come early or stay late (were not bothersome). Would recommend!

Exceptional Stay in the Heart of Reykjavík! I had an unforgettable experience at Reykjavík Residence Hotel. The location is perfect—right in the center of the city, within walking distance to all the main attractions, restaurants, and shopping areas. The hotel itself is a beautiful blend of modern comforts and Icelandic charm. The rooms are spacious, impeccably clean, and well-furnished, offering a cozy, home-like atmosphere. I loved the fully equipped kitchenette, which made it easy to prepare our own meals. The staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend Reykjavík Residence Hotel for anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable base while exploring this stunning city!

The front desk staff was phenomenal i had a hard time finding the building (all my phones fault) i called the front and the guy called me back offering to help me. Our room lucky was ready early so we were able to check in early. The housekeeper from Ukraine super friendly always had a smile on her face. The breakfast was so convenient since most tours started at 8am and was tasty. Our room was spacious had a refrigerator, stove top, microwave, kettle, toaster, and utensils. Overall i am so happy with my choice and the employees at the property were phenomenal.

This property is very centralized and convenient. They provide all the essentials like shampoo, body wash and even generous size body lotion. The only downside is the sofa bed which was very uncomfortable and making squeaky sound whenever you move around. Pillows need to change too because it doesn’t provide any support at all. Plus side is the washroom, decent size, clean and big. I will definitely choose this location again.

Spacious but steep narrow stairs
Extremely spacious and comprehensive, even had washer dryer with powdered detergent. We used the app check-in because the reception is not in the same building but eventually got cards as the phone to unlock as the phone is a little slow (also in case of dead battery). Only not-ideal thing was our top apartment was on the third floor with a narrow, steep and almost circular staircase, no elevator - needed to hold the larger suitcases at chest height to make the turns. Having the kitchen and some basics included (milk, cornflakes) was very convenient for our departure. I would stay again but on a lower floor.

Contactless check in was a little confusing at first but we figured it out. The room was great and well-equipped. The shower was amazing and equipped with L'Occitane products. However the the sofa bed was incredibly uncomfortable and back breaking, would not have been able sleep on it for longer than 1 night.
