Top Thingvallavatn Hotel Reviews

Minniborgir Cottages & Restaurant

10/10 Excellent

"This property was clean, quiet, and in a convenient location! You have to make a reservation for breakfast the day before, but you can book a room with a kitchenette. Bedroom was a little small and could use a little updating but, overall, it was a comfortable stay."

Hotel Grimsborgir by Keahotels

10/10 Excellent

"A very nice stay in a hotel ideally located to appreciate the Northern Lights (if the weather cooperates). The rooms are nicely appointed and clean, the staff were helpful, and the breakfast was very good. We were able to enjoy a soak in the hot tub after a very long day of sightseeing - a much appreciated amenity."

The Greenhouse Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great location for several of our day excursions. Breakfast was included which always makes the day easier. Enjoyed dinner downstairs in the "food court". Has a sort of hostel feel by the food court which I loved. Lots of couches to relax on, good music. Hotel room itself was small and simple, but clean and up to date. Had a nice bench where we could both open our suitcases. Also located right next to a Bonus grocery. Would definitely stay here again!"

KEX Hotel and Hostel Reykjavik

10/10 Excellent

"I love this place!!! 100% reccommend!"

Fosshotel Reykjavik

8/10 Good

"Yes good."

CityHub Reykjavik

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location and very spacious pods! Would absolutely stay here again!"

Buubble Hotel-Ölvisholt

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay at the Bubble. It was easy to check in and there was such a cute well lit path marked to our very private bubble clearing the trees. Though the sky didn't cooperate with the Northern Lights the private wooded scenery around the Bubble (even in the rain) made for a lovely view. Staying in the Bubble was a really fun and very cozy, comfortable experience."

Bella Apartments & Rooms

8/10 Good

"Clean room, good location."

Hotel Laxnes

8/10 Good

"Very quiet area of town outside Reykjavik. Hotel was clean and had plenty of amenities. Only scary part was someone walking into our hotel room at 2am because the door wasn’t closed properly. Didn’t learn till after that you have to lift door for it to properly lock. Overall, was a nice stay"
