“Reykjavik Lights Hotel embraces its Icelandic inspiration, from rooms themed around the ancient calendar to its celebration of local products in the bar; breakfast is more than ample, setting guests up for the day, and the staff genuinely aim to please. Although slightly removed from the city center, the free parking and proximity to the Laugardalslaug pool more than compensate. In my opinion, it's a practical base with authentic touches.”

decent stay overall
clean room comfy bed missing washcloths distant location
our double or twin room was nice and clean. the beds were super comfy too, i must say. i saw reviews saying breakfast didn't have a big selection, but i found it enough for my needs.
I've never been to a hotel without washcloths or tissues. That surprised me. the location requires a fair walk from the center.

Acceptable But Not Really good
small room inadequate parking
The reception staff provided helpful service.
The room was quite small and cramped. Parking in front of the hotel was inadequate, I had to circle around the block a few times to find a space. I was disappointed.

Modern Comfort and Great Service
I appreciated the 24/7 availability of the front desk staff. They were always ready to assist. Breakfast provided a good selection of items, a plus for starting the day. The room had modern features.
I noticed the wardrobe door made a loud noise when sliding it shut. This woke me up in the early morning.
