    The breakfast spread was bomb - so many choices and it didn't run out even when it got crazy busy! The room was cozy and quiet, perfect for getting some work done; staff even hooked me up with an adaptor. Just a heads up though, there ain't no fridge in the rooms, but beggars can't be choosers. 🏨

    The location was convenient with nearby stores and eateries. Despite the cleanliness issues, the staff were friendly. The room was cozy with underfloor heating, though a thinner pillow option would have been preferred. The self-service check-in was convenient, but the garage occasionally being full was frustrating. Overall, a practical and decently priced option for travelers.

    Our family had an incredible time exploring the stunning landscapes along the Ring Road during our stay at Oddsson Hotel. The front desk team was so helpful, providing us with valuable tips and guidance for our trip. The spacious and comfortable rooms were a delight to come back to after a day of adventure.

    In my wife's opinion, a kids' play area would have been a great addition for families traveling with young children.

    The room at this hotel was clean and cozy, with a surprisingly good breakfast spread. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the self-check-in process was convenient. Despite being a bit far from the city center, the room had great facilities and a good size for two people. Some minor issues like a small parking lot and slightly warm room were easily manageable. Plus, the breakfast bar had varied options, including gluten-free choices. An overall pleasant stay.

    The room facilities were impressive, especially the bathroom and shower. Despite encountering minor inconveniences like the room getting too hot and the breakfast buffet incident, overall, our experience was pleasant. The cleanliness of the rooms, friendly staff at meal times, and delicious food ordered in the evenings left a positive impression on us.

    The room was clean, quiet, and had a good view of the storm. Adjacent to elevator and house phone. Excellent nearby dining options including a tiny diner and a pizza place. Grocery store and close bus stops nearby. Warm room with kettle, tea, and coffee provided. Fridge delivered to room.

    Could not be improved in any way.

    Rooms spacious, clean, and comfy. Breakfast great but missed a coffee machine. Self-check-in convenient but no reception for urgent needs. Ideal for tours, with buses nearby. Good location, though soundproofing could be better. A comfortable stay with minor room for improvement.

    I loved the modern and clean design of Oddsson. The self-check-in process was convenient and hassle-free. The room and bathroom were spacious and had all the necessary amenities. I especially appreciated the blackout curtains, which allowed for a peaceful sleep even during the long daylight hours in June. The hotel felt safe and secure, and the location was convenient with nearby supermarkets and bus stops. I had a fantastic stay at Oddsson Hotel and would highly recommend it.

    The journey to downtown Reykjavík from the hotel was surprisingly convenient, akin to a smooth ride on a serene lake. The vibrant and cozy room welcomed me with open arms, offering a serene escape from the bustling city. The free continental breakfast was a delightful treat, fueling me for a day of adventure.

    Distance from the center.

    The hotel is conveniently located near the bus stop, making it easy to explore the city. It is also close to everything one may need, with shops, restaurants, and a 24/7 supermarket nearby. The rooms are spacious and clean, providing a comfortable stay. The staff is friendly and accommodating, ensuring great service. Plus, the breakfast offerings, including vegan options and freshly baked waffles, are a delightful start to the day.

    Some guests have mentioned difficulty in closing the bathroom door, which can be a minor inconvenience.

    I recently stayed at The Oddsson for a few nights. The hotel is clean, modern, and offers convenient underground parking. The self check-in and check-out system made the process easy and hassle-free. The rooms are comfortable with a great shower and a decent size TV. I also appreciated the fact that the hotel is a pick-up place for tours, making it convenient for exploring the area. Additionally, there are grocery stores, restaurants, and malls located nearby.

    I totally recommend this hotel.

    The hotel was very clean and well decorated, with lovely staff and comfortable beds. the breakfast was great and the check-in and check-out process was fast and easy. the parking area was convenient and we found it easy to park our car. Plus, there were some supermarkets around for convenience.

    The location of the hotel was a bit far from town, so it wasn't easily accessible by foot. Additionally, there were some basic amenities missing in the rooms such as a mini fridge, tea and coffee facilities, and a phone/clock.

    We had a great stay at this hotel. Best aspects were cleanliness , location very close to the city center , breakfast , and staff. The hotel also had useful facilities such as USB charging points and a keyless entry system. We liked that it was close to a grocery store and bus stops, so we could easily get around this city.

    I stayed at Oddsson for my recent trip to Iceland and it was absolutely fantastic. The hotel offers a great location, with easy access to the city center by bus or a short walk to a grocery store. The rooms are modern, clean, and spacious. The breakfast buffet was fantastic, offering a wide variety of options. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay.

    I absolutely adored the cozy and inviting lobby area at the hotel. The comfortable seating and warm decor made it the perfect spot for relaxation and socializing. Additionally, the hotel's accessibility for senior people was truly impressive. The wide hallways and well-lit corridors made it easy for me to navigate, and the elevator was a great help for getting to my room. It's wonderful to see a hotel that is considerate of older guests' needs.

    I would have appreciated a bit more assistance from the staff's children during my stay.

    This hotel has a great location, being near the city center, harbor and a supermarket. The rooms were clean, and the bathroom was spacious with a great walk-in shower. The staff was helpful and there were complimentary tea and coffee available 24/7. The breakfast was continental but also had a great waffle maker.

    The room temperature was not adjustable which made it a bit uncomfortable at times.

    Convenient location with easy access to parking facilities. Very clean and comfortable rooms, providing a pleasant and cozy stay. the breakfast had a nice variety and was satisfying.

    The staff could be more attentive and helpful, as they seemed preoccupied and unresponsive at times. the hotel's location was a bit far from the city center, requiring a 20, 30 minute walk or a 10, minute bus ride.

    As a solo traveler, I loved the superb breakfast selection, spacious and well-equipped rooms, and the friendly and helpful staff. Free parking, easy check-in, and a cozy lobby/restaurant were also big pluses. The complimentary coffee, tea, and hot chocolate throughout the day were a nice touch.

    Felt safe walking at night, no complaints whatsoever.

    This hotel is reasonably well situated, just a short 20-minute walk from the bustling city center. Despite not being in the main city center, it offers excellent value for money. The staff members are incredibly helpful and attentive, always going above and beyond to meet our needs. The rooms on the lower floors are warm, with comfy beds and an exceptional bathroom. Plus, the breakfast spread is delicious, although some items did run out.

    No major issues, everything was satisfactory.

    The room at Oddsson Hotel was so cozy and inviting, with a modern feel and vibrant decoration. The beds were super comfy, and I loved having the option of double or single beds. As a business traveller, the free WiFi was a huge plus!

    Personally, I found the soundproofing in the quadruple room to be a bit lacking. But I know some people might not mind it.

    This hotel is a hidden gem for independent travelers. With no front desk, you have the freedom to explore without constantly asking for assistance. The breakfast rooms offer plenty of space to eat, work, or mingle with fellow guests. The variety of bus connections makes it easy to get around, even though the hotel is slightly outside the city center. And let's not forget the amazing lady who single-handedly runs the place, from feeding breakfast guests to cleaning rooms – truly impressive!

    The only downside was the lack of storage in the room. When visiting during winter, bulky items like clothes and boots became a bit of a challenge.

    Loved the modern room design and comfy beds. The shower had a bit of a smell, but once I turned it on and let it run, the smell went away. The self-check-in process was easy and convenient. I would recommend it.

    Loved the free breakfast, but it was a bit of a gamble if I'd find a parking spot for my giant van. Also, thank you for the thrilling experience of using the elevator!

    Oh, and the location was just perfect if you're into being far away from everything and everyone. Who needs convenience, right?
