The bus to Keflavík would stop outside, and it was a hour walk to the domestic airport. It’s also 20mins walk into town which is easily do able or to the BSI - other bus terminal. The bunks don’t creak/ move as you climb onto them. The shower/ toilet facilities were lovely and warm after a long day out in the cold. The cooking facilities also great. Would recommend as also an easy place as a lot of tour pick ups can be arranged from this location. ##### hayley Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Kerry Oct 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Amenities The hostel was fine. But honestly if you don't have a car it is not convenient at all unless you wnat to walk about 30 - 45 minutes to get anywhere. It is not close to the BSI bus station and the bus is a pain as you have to buy add on tickets when you get the airport bus. I was charged around $45 for a cab from the airport. You can't check in till 3pm and there is nowhere around there to eat or in the hostel. They have a kitchen and suggested I make my own food that I bought form the supermarket. Which is not close and I didn't have a car! The vending machine was super expensive and only had some really bad sandwiches. And the coffee machine is inside the reception which i closed after 9pm so good luck getting a hot drink! The beds were really hard and two singles stuck together. (I was in the private room 8). There was no desk / chair or TV which made it really awkward to use a laptop. The shared bathroom was clean. Also if you want to get the hop on hop off bus tour the nearest stop is at Perlan which is about a thirty minute walk uphill through a park with winding roads and by a really busy motorway which is impossible to cross unless you use the subway. ##### Kerry Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Aug 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Not worth the exuberant price of $75 a night, but I guess that's just Iceland. Solo female traveler and felt safe in 16 person co-ed dorm. Private bathrooms were a big perk, and very clean. Room could have been ventilated better (a bit of a smell), but overall very clean. Location is a bit inconvenient if you're trying to explore town (\~20 minute walk into downtown), but very convenient for airport bus transfers or tour transfers. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sangita Nov 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I took the bus and it took me right to the hostel and driver got my luggage out. The rooms are not at the "road level" so you have to take your luggage on the next floor and there is no elevator. The front desk staff can help with the luggage. The 2 somewhat smaller fridges ( compared to the big fridge sizes in USA) in the kitchen were overflowing and not really clean from inside. There is no freezer. Bathrooms were clean. The 4 bed sharing room was decent size. I walked to the church and city. It was very safe and had free parking, if you have a car. ##### Sangita Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maxime Aug 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities great stay ##### Maxime Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mari Dec 15, 2025 Disliked: Amenities The individual room for two persons was very small.

I liked the location and very close to BSI. ##### Ikebana Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kermit Aug 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Bus Hostel is what it is... convenient location to airport transportation and downtown Reykjavik, relatively affordable (for Iceland), clean, and friendly staff. But the shared bathrooms need more hooks to hang clothes! ##### Kermit Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### anthony Jun 12, 2025 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice staff ##### anthony Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Storm Hotel by Keahotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Storm-Hotel-By-Keahotels.h10207049.Hotel-Information) > > [Old Charm Reykjavik Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Old-Charm-Reykjavik-Apartments.h23389798.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Cabin](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Cabin.h1542421.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Klettur](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Klettur.h4445246.Hotel-Information) > > [Alda Hotel Reykjavik](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Alda-Hotel-Reykjavik.h8120033.Hotel-Information) > > [Guesthouse Sunna](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Guesthouse-Sunna.h4761742.Hotel-Information) > > [Reykjavik Residence Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Reykjavik-Residence-Hotel.h4099809.Hotel-Information) > > [Exeter Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Exeter-Hotel.h22266982.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Barón](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Fosshotel-Baron.h978797.Hotel-Information) > > [Center Hotels Laugavegur](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-CenterHotel-Laugavegur.h36412694.Hotel-Information) > > [KEX Hotel and Hostel Reykjavik](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Kex-Hostel-Reykjavik.h22832352.Hotel-Information) > > [Hótel Múli](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Muli.h14923586.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Reykjavik Nordica](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hilton-Reykjavik-Nordica.h13477.Hotel-Information) > > [Skuggi Hotel by Keahotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Skuggi-Hotel-By-Keahotels.h10947140.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Von](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Von-Guldsmeden-Hotel.h36796295.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Reykjavik](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Fosshotel-Reykjavik.h9031743.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Reykjavík Grand](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Reykjavik.h45483.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Eyja](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Eyja-Guldsmeden-Hotel.h31000378.Hotel-Information) > > [Grandi by Center Hotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Grandi-By-Center-Hotels.h45668818.Hotel-Information) > > [Reykjavik Marina - Berjaya Iceland Hotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Icelandair-Hotel-Reykjavik-Marina.h4828813.Hotel-Information) > > [The Reykjavik EDITION](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-The-Reykjavik-EDITION.h71618236.Hotel-Information) > > [Sand Hotel by Keahotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Sand-Hotel-By-Keahotels.h17676136.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Borg by Keahotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Borg-By-Keahotels.h1088087.Hotel-Information) > > [Miðgarður by Center Hotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Migarur-By-Center-Hotels.h9853419.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Ísland - Spa & Wellness Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Island-Spa-Wellness-Hotel.h524487.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Fron](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Fron.h2093979.Hotel-Information) > > [Canopy by Hilton Reykjavik City Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Canopy-By-Hilton-Reykjavik-City-Centre.h13379154.Hotel-Information) > > [Center Hotels Plaza](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Center-Hotels-Plaza.h1379245.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu 1919 Hotel, Reykjavik](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-1919-Hotel.h1197028.Hotel-Information)
