Reykjavik hostels

Pros: Best facilities, awesome common spaces, kitchen, strong wifi. Very clean and well-appointed rooms. Staff is very kind and helpful and not arrogant even if the bar area attracts trendy clientele

Pros: Staff was very helpful and pleasant with tours, directions, getting back to airport, and any other questions people had. Breakfast was sufficient for a hostel and this was good because eating out could get pricey in Reykavik.

Pros: Great place, friendly staff, and tons of character. The bar and food are so good that locals and other visitors from the area will visit even if they're not staying at the hostel. Location could not be better. Within 2-10 minute walk of Laugavegur (one of the main shopping and dining areas), Harpa, and convenience stores (e.g. 10-11). Highly recommended.

Pros: Oddsson was a total fantasy for me. The staff was unbelievably kind and generous, the view was incomparable, and the friends I made there were genuine and beautiful people. I cannot thank Oddsson enough for the adventure it gave to me.

Pros: The room was clean, warm and quiet. It's a 10 min walk to the city centre. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

Pros: Comfy beds. Friendly staff

Pros: Everything was very clean. Generous breakfast.

Pros: It was great to have the fridge, tea and coffee facilities as well as a computer with free internet access in the room.

Pros: I've been travelling quite a lot staying in many hostels recommened by Lonely Planet and other guidebooks, but I find Floki as the best one (sleepingbag dormitory). Staff is increadibly friendly and helpfull, Internet connection great. As people staying in the Floki come to Iceland for different purposes (business, holidays), it isn't a place where you meet bunch of drunk backpackers. a kitchen is great with a dinning part nicely arranged.

Pros: Floki is a smaller, family-run operation which is efficient but also personable. The facilities look like a cottage with a dining annex. My room, though small, was clean, well appointed in an IKEA style, easy to access and had free wireless. The nearby shared restroom was also well-kept. The breakfast was delicious and the dining lounge is spacious and sunny. The proprieter is very welcoming and helped me to order a cab for a very early morning flight to the airport. Also, one day I'd accidentally locked myself out and didn't realize it until I was down the street, but upon my return I found the key back in the door, no problem. It's not luxury, but the service is excellent. Support local businesses and stay at the Floki

Pros: The night shift staff is friendly and helpful. The room is very basic but clean. The location is a bit far from the city center (10 minutes walk) but it was in a quiet neighborhood and I had great sleep. Great value for the rate that I paid...

Pros: No problem with check in in the middle of the night. Friendly people at the reception. Clean and comfortable and good value for money.

Pros: We appreciated the computer, the staff were very friendly and helpful, receiving packages and messages for us. The rooms were clean. Location was very accessible and staff was very accommodating in dropping off large amounts of luggage early

Pros: Easy to get to (Flybus+), clean & comfortable, internet pc, washing & drying facilities available for guests to use (a pleasant surprise as I don't remember seeing this on the website). Plenty of food at breakfast. Easy walking distance from the main shopping area.

Pros: For problems with the suit-cases and with arrangements with the car rental service and immediately and one helped uncomplicatedly.

Pros: Cheap, nice and helping staff, basic but had everything you need

Pros: Location close to Reykjavik sites, but very quiet. Staff were helpful and friendly, helped us with dropping off a rental car and info about getting to the airport, etc.
