Perfect last night in Reykjavik
It was our last night in Reykjavik after travelling the south coast for the last week. We stayed in room 407 which was beautifully designed with a four poster bed. There was complimentary tea & coffee near the bar area, which you helped yourself to. The hotel is about a 5 minute walk from sea.

I feel like this place is a hidden gem. It is the cutest place, cozy atmosphere, fantastic rooms with all the expected amenities. We stayed here for a couple nights at the end of a long trip and it was welcoming and relaxing. Would absolutely stay here again.

Outstanding staff, very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly, very clean and in a great location. Everything you need to see is between 1-3 kilometers from the hotel. So for walkers for me and my family it was great. Grocery store around the corner was another plus. I feel it is an excellent value for the price of the room.

I enjoyed my stay at Eyja Guldsmeden. It’s very close to downtown, and walking distance to conveniences such as supermarket, coffee shops, food hall. Staff are professional and friendly - I got in at 8am and I was lucky, they already had a room ready and they let me check in at no extra charge. The room was clean and spacious enough. I would stay there again.

Staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms are comfortable. I noticed my room was quite cold, but it’s Iceland in October so I didn’t mention assuming it was just the building in general. In the morning while checking out, I happened to brush against the heat panel and it seemed to be not on with no heat coming off it, I was leaving so I wasn’t about to complain. There was no thermostat to adjust it either. Hindsight, I should have mentioned it but I was rushing and forgot to. I would have preferred to not be on the first floor either it was a little noisy at street level at times. I did love their eco friendly made in Iceland products! I did not have any meals on the property.
