I totally loved this apartment during my 2 weeks stay here in Iceland. Just next to the downtown shopping street, the location is within walking distance to many other amenities. The food and convenience store is just right below. The apartment itself is a great one. Clean and spacious enough for the 2 of us. And not forgetting the beautiful view you get ( I managed to catch the Northern lights from my room!). All in all, what a stay and I'll definitely be getting the same place for my next stay here in Iceland.

TV channels are limited and there is no Netflix to connect. No kettle. You have to use the pan provided to heat up water if you need to.

There are many reasons why we liked the property: it is located in the city centre and to many sightseeings, all around with main bus stops for pick ups & drop offs. Our rooms have been spacious, with big, wide windows. The kitchen area is equipped with Utensil for cooking. We liked to come back after struggling with a 45km/h strong wind and cold icelandic weather to our warm room. The staff is very friendly & problem solving in cases you shoukd have any incidents. A supermarket is in front of the building so that you don’t have to carry your goods for a long way back- what could you wish more? We didn’t. Thank you very much Hlemmur Team!

No negative opinions or complaints!

The apartments are in a great location, beautifully designed, and well-maintained. We found everything we needed for cooking, which was very convenient. I am also very grateful that we were given a better room than we had booked. Having a room with a balcony made it so much easier to enjoy the Northern Lights!

The only thing I would suggest improving is the storage space. There wasn’t really anywhere to put our belongings or hang our jackets. There was one rack, but it was occupied by extra bedding. More storage options would make the stay even more comfortable.

Wonderfull location. Walking distance to variety of shops, restaurants, harbour, sea front promenade. Convenience store to purchase food 20m away. Very clean aparment with some sea views. Well equiped and provided coffee pods and cleaning materials. Comfy bed. Excellent WI-FI with nice size TV offering a variety of channels. Easy checking as the email the code prior to arrival with perfect directions. Good communication with host. We parked our car in the parking garage that was about 100m from the unit. Would stay here again. Highly recommended.

Would have liked some more coffee pods - to cover a cup of coffee per person per day. We only received for the the first day.

The location was absolutely brilliant - really central and close to a number of bus stops for tours. Having a kitchenette was really useful. The room was really stylish and everything was finished to a high standard. The check-in/checkout process was really easy and the staff were helpful when we contacted them. The water pressure in the shower was great and it heated up really quickly. The bed was really comfortable and we got a great night's sleep. The apartment generally had everything we could need and I'd definitely stay here again.

The kitchen could have done with an extractor fan as there was only a hob to cook on and this created a lot of humidity in the room and meant that everything smelled of food. This was only a minor thing and everything else was fantastic.

Spacious and exceptionally clean apartment! The location is great - right next to the fantastic Hlemmur Mathöll and a 24/7 convenience store. Check in was a breeze. The code for the front door and room was provided in advance and we had zero issues. I have seen reviews where people are criticising the amenities. Yes, there are a few things lacking (kettle, toaster, microwave) but this wasn't a problem for us. We cooked using the stove and oven, and used the pod machine to heat water for tea (worked just fine). The washer/dryer was a very welcome discovery. If you are staying here and need bus transfers for tours, pick Bus Stop #9. It's a 60 second walk from the front door.

Microwave would have been good, but as mentioned, wasn't really a problem.

Super helpful staff, whenever I contacted I got a quick response. The location was perfect for exploring Reykjavik and had a shop & food court across the road. Bus stop 1 min away (bus stop 9) for all excursions. The room and building was very clean and easy to access. The room was perfect for what we needed, thank you!

There were limited supplies of things in the room (2 teabags, toilet roll, cooking equipment, 3 hangers etc). I had read many reviews saying the same thing over the past year and the response was this would be taken on board. So I had hoped this would have been different. It wasn’t a problem as we were able to buy more of what we needed but it would have been a better experience if this was provided. There are reviews about there being no kettle. We boiled water in a pan for tea which was really quick and easy. Better than using the coffee machine.

The owner sent information in advance. We entered the front entrance of the building and the room with a door key pad which was straight forward and was easily done. The apartment was spacious, modern, clean and warm. There was air blowing into the apartment which we couldn't control and which was slightly cool but it didnt matter as we could control each radiator keeping the apartment nice and warm. We used the hob, grill, coffee machine, fridge, dishwasher and washing machine. We enjoyed relaxing in the evening watching TV. Initially I didnt think the settee and chairs looked very comfortable but they actually were very comfortable. My family and myself all had a comfortable nights sleep in spacious beds. We had 3 separate bedrooms in our apartment. We had a nice hot shower. The apartment is opposite a food hall and there is a supermarket just out front. The apartment was nice and quiet. There is no car parking with the accommodation. we parked our car just around the corner on the next street. It was paid parking 9am-9pm but we were often out site seeing during the day so it was free to park overnight. It is just a few minutes walk to shops, takeaways, restaurants and it took us about 10 -15 minutes to walk into Reykavik centre. There is an abundance of shops, restaurants, pubs and takeaways along the way as you walk into the centre. We had a very nice stay and would definately stay here again when visiting Reykavik.

Nothing

Everything! Even though there is extensive construction around the apartment building, it is a 1 min walking distance from bus stop no 13, and 2-3 min from bus stop 9 and 11, from which most travel tours can pick you up. It is on laugavagur street which is a shopping street that connects with many others. It is well located, very clean, everything is perfect, the stove is induction so you have to put your pan on it for it to heat. Know that you have to touch the door knob for the numbers to appear in order to get in. We were upgraded to an apartment with balcony and sea view and we saw the northern lights from our balcony. Will be back when we come to Iceland again.

Nothing

Great location right at the end of one of the main streets of Reykjavik and just a couple of streets away from the harbour which had stunning views. The room had everything we needed with a small kitchenette, table and chairs, private bathroom and decent sized comfortable bed. The room was warm (we were there in December and it got down to -8C). Plenty of places to eat nearby and a convenience store just across the road. Very spacious room and bathroom. Modern facilities. The building has a lift if needed.

Would have appreciated a bit more stock of things like toilet paper, towels and tea/coffee. We stayed 4 nights and only had one each of each of these things for the stay.
