Guesthouse Galtafell Reykjavik

As a group visiting the Harpa Concert Hall and Conference Centre, we found the guesthouse to be in a prime location, just a short walk away. The rooms were cozy and clean, with comfortable beds and a well-equipped kitchenette. The check-in process was convenient, allowing us flexibility in our arrival time, and the staff were quick to respond to any questions we had via email.

The curtains in our room were so ineffective that they let in all the light, making it difficult to sleep during the long winter nights. the shared bathroom situation was not ideal.

I had very nice 1 night in this hotel that's why I loved that. Plenty of options for breakfast including cheese, fruit and cereal.

Staff and location were very good and I appreciated it. Lots of meals for breakfast, including fruit, cheese and meats.

This budget guesthouse is located in a nice, quiet area that's still easily accessible—very close to the main bus station and within walking distance of downtown. Some rooms have a bathtub and an extra toilet, and all rooms are clean with comfortable beds. There's a fridge and microwave in the room, which is convenient for early or late trips.

The lack of a proper reception area means that check-in can be confusing for guests, especially if arriving outside of business hours.

Lovely room, convenient location, great breakfast, comfortable bed, spacious, helpful staff.

Everything great.

During my Christmas stay, I really appreciated the convenient location of this guesthouse. It was only a short walk from the bus station and the city center, making it easy to explore Reykjavik. Additionally, the staff at the guesthouse were extremely friendly and helpful. They provided clean towels when needed and the room was well equipped with a kettle, mini fridge, and microwave. It was also nice to have the option to borrow a hair dryer from the bathroom. the atmosphere was peaceful and I felt safe walking around the quiet neighborhood.

One aspect that I didn't particularly enjoy was the room temperature. the bedroom felt a bit cool and there was no way to adjust the heat.

Located in a quiet residential area near Central Park, this guesthouse offers comfortable beds and a great bathroom. The well-appointed apartments come with modern amenities and fully equipped kitchenettes with a sandwich maker and coffee machine. Check-in was hassle-free with clear instructions left on the door. Free parking and strong wifi were added bonuses.

I had the most amazing experience staying at this guesthouse. The location was perfect, just a short walk to all the main tourist attractions in downtown. It was also super convenient to have plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The room I stayed in was clean and comfortable, with a lovely view of the city. The bathroom was well-maintained and easily accessible. The service provided by the owners was outstanding, they really cared about making sure I had a great stay.

The only downside was that the check-in process was a bit unconventional, with no staff available upon arrival. However, this was quickly resolved and did not impact the overall positive experience.

This hotel offers great value for money. The prices are reasonable considering the location in a lovely residential area. The staff pays attention to detail, as seen in the well-prepared kitchenware in the rooms. The rooms themselves are clean and tidy, with fresh towels provided daily. What a pleasant surprise to find a full-sized bath in the room, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring.

All was just right, no improvements needed.
