Guesthouse Keflavik

The doors needed to be slammed to be locked so was

Even by Icelandic standards, 188GBP for a family room with shared bathroom and four bunk beds (it looks a little bit like a prison cell) is, I think, poor value for money. There are places in the world where you would pay that much for an average hotel room- Paris, London, Dubai, Singapore- but even there, you would expect an en-suite bathroom for this price. We were disappointed.

This guesthouse is well situated close to the airport but they do not offer shuttle service. There are only two bathrooms for six rooms or so, so if they are both taken, you've just got to wait. Not ideal if you're in a hurry to get to the airport. The breakfast was nice but nothing extravagant. I'd recommend staying at one of the many hotels in Keflavik with shuttle service and a private bathroom. There are plenty in the same price range once you factor in the $30 taxi you will have to spend to get to your flight.

We actually stayed at the hotel across the street for an unknown reason. Not sure if they are owned by the same owner but the experience was nice. Breakfast was included and it was the biggest and most comprehensive breakfast I have ever seen worldwide. I personally have visited 131+ countries so that's saying something about their breakfast. Hotel is renovating and we stayed in the older portion but it was just fine. Fireworks extravaganza for the New Years end celebration was just outside of the hotel. Happy New Year!

Nice hotel breakfast excellent and very warm and clean

Address from Expedia had slightly different street name so was hard to find on gps. Actual ended in gur, Expedia website ended in gi

The hotel looks beautiful but the guesthouse is run down. I was not able to get wifi in my room as advertised. When I asked the front desk they gave me a slip of paper with the password to a wifi network that was not available in the guesthouse. The heater in my room did not work very well and because the cleaning staff left my window open all day, my room was cold as I tried to sleep that night. The rooms are not soundproof, a family was staying in the room next to mine and woke me up several times throughout the night. The best part was having breakfast across the road at the hotel before my early morning flight, but, based on the price, I would stay elsewhere next time for a more comfortable room and sleep.

Exceeded expectations

Our stay was great. We were upgraded, free of charge from their Guesthouse to Hotel. The decor in the hotel was very modern and the room was very comfortable. Our stay included a number of extras such as tea and coffee, breakfast in the morning, and a free taxi ride to the airport. At the time of our stay their restaurant was closed for renovations, however, they recommended a few alternatives for us. All in all, we were very happy with our time here. The staff were very nice and it is a great hotel to stay at if you are catching an early morning flight (it only took about 5 minutes by car).
