Reykjavík Residence Apartment Hotel is one of those rare places that manages to feel both impeccably organized and completely unpretentious—a combination about as common as a sunny week in Iceland. From the outside, it looks like a collection of handsome historic buildings. Inside, it reveals itself to be a masterclass in Scandinavian practicality. There is space to spread out, a kitchen to prepare breakfast, and enough thoughtful touches to make you suspect that someone involved in the design process had actually traveled before. The location is so perfectly placed that Reykjavík seems to have arranged itself around the hotel as a courtesy to guests. Within minutes you can be admiring Hallgrímskirkja, browsing a bookstore, hunting down a cappuccino, or contemplating whether a country can survive economically if every cinnamon roll costs the equivalent of a small appliance.

Cute hotel, great location. Close to Bus Stop 9 which was easy for shuttle/tour pick ups. Very nice front desk staff Only small note is that there was no apparent A/C in the rooms, so if you run hot and you need to crack the window, if you're on a street facing room, you can have some noise pollution as well as cigarette smoke from street level. Bring a small fan if you're a warm sleeper like me! Wouldn't hesitate to return here
