The ONLY place to stay in Iceland!
This was the most AMAZING hotel. Great room, perfect location and the MOST COMFORTABLE BED!!! My ONLY complaint is I only got to stay there one night. Would be worth going back to Iceland just to stay in the hotel again

Nice one night stay in the touristy area!
Wonderful one night stay! We spent one night and wanted a place near the pedestrian area and shopping. This hotel was it! Right on the shopping road, lovely, classy, ample street parking and parking structures around, the staff even taught me about the different parking zones and had a handout on fees and how to save $. Continental breakfast in the morning (lots of breads, yogurt, cereal) in the cute cafe. Overall a really nice stay and I would stay againf!

Nice Hotel for short stay
This is a nice hotel in a great part of Reykjavik. The breakfast was excellent and I liked that they give you the option of whether you want housekeeping or not beforehand. The bed was way too soft and there was no noise protection at all. Every person walking by on the street outside was easily audible through the window :( but the room was clean and the staff were pleasant. It's a bit of a walk in the wintertime from the nearest bus stop but if you have a car it would be easy to get to.

We loved our family stay at Sand Hotel in the centre of Reykjavik. We were a family of five, the location was so convenient, the staff were friendly and knowledgable, the beds super comfortable plus I would highly reccomend adding the breakfast which set us up each day. When we come back from Sydney we will definately be back.

Perfect stay, really central and a very short walk to lots of good restaurants and bars. Really comfy bed and one of the best breakfasts I’ve had a hotel!

6/10 Good

Great hotel, but be mindful of noise at night
We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The central location is perfect for exploring, the rooms are cozy, very clean, and spacious, and the overall atmosphere feels luxurious. The bed was super comfortable, and the breakfast was great with a nice variety of options. A big plus was the helpful reception staff, who even assisted us with restaurant bookings. However, the biggest downside was the noise at night. On Thursday, we heard music from outside until midnight, and on Friday, it went on until at least 3 AM. When we raised this with reception, we were told it was expected due to the central location—but as someone who lives in central London, I don’t typically hear music this late. Overall, I’d recommend this hotel for its comfort, service, and location, but be mindful of potential noise, depending on which side your room is on. If you're a light sleeper, it might be worth requesting a quieter room in advance.
