Très propre

L'hôtel Grìmur est au 3ème étage d'un petit immeuble de commerce. Ça sent le propre quand on y rentre. Il est un peu excentré, à 12min du centre ville en voiture environ. Pas de télé dans les chambres et pas de petits dej pour les départs très tôt (ils devraient prévoir un petit quelque chose ça serait sympa ;) ) Chambre spacieuse et literie confortable (dommage néanmoins que les lits 2 personnes soient constitués de 2 matelas 1 pers qui s'écartent quand on dort...). Bon séjour passé!

Very nice property. The included breakfast was substantial and good variety of food. Was able to get coffee at all hours. Room was spacious and warm. No fridge or tv in the room but fridge in common area to use and free wifi allowed for streaming. Location was outside of the downtown but it was on a direct bus route to downtown. Grocery store on site was a bonus. Helpful staff.

My niece and I stayed for one night. The front desk staff (think her name was Gosia) was very helpful and accommodating. The hotel was overall cozy, nice, and clean. Free breakfast was a bonus. Would definitely stay here again when visiting Iceland.

Best value for price

Everything is extraordinarily fine The room was so clean, had very nice view, and I liked the breakfast as well The only thing that I don’t like is that I had to be careful when opening the door of bathroom not to have my finger cut 😞

舒適的住宿環境

除了飯店的門口標示稍不清楚，進入飯店之後的環境很好。 房間夠大，浴室的擺設很舒適，乾濕分離做得也很好。 交誼廳布置得很舒適，早餐不算豐盛，但該有的都有了。 入住的時候櫃台已經下班了，但是飯店會提前寄MAIL通知入住的密碼，外面的咖啡、熱水、茶包都是自行取用，很方便。 以後有機會還是會考慮這間。

A very good, simple place to spend the night. It was clean and we'll appointed - very good use of space. But don't expect fancy. We found very good pizza on the ground floor by the hotel. Breakfast was generous.

Excelente opção perto do centro de Reykjavik

Quarto: muito recente, moderno e limpo, tendo uma óptima casa de banho! Aquecimento rápido e potente que originou que estivessemos confortáveis durante toda a estadia. Camas confortáveis e óptimos edredons de penas, bem quentes. Optámos por um quarto com casa de banho privativa. Ambiente: sistema de entrada no edifiício e quarto com uso de código de acesso pessoal e intransmissível, sendo bastante seguro e cómodo (não existe recepção a partir das 15h, mas toda a informação foi enviada antecipamente por e-mail). Condições gerais muito boas, quer a nível de limpeza quer a nível de serviços disponibilizados (café/chá sempre disponível no lobby), assim como a possibilidade de utilização de microondas e talheres/copos/pratos. Tem uma área de lazer bastante confortável. Pequeno-almoço: bastantes opções disponíveis em termos de qualidade/preço do hotel, tendo entre outros, várias variedades de Skir, pão (de forma), queijos, fiambres e doces. Fruta reduzida (só maçãs), mas com bastantes opções a nível de cereais, café, chocolate e chás. Qualidade e frescura no geral. Resumo: aconselho a reserva neste hotel, sendo que tem uma óptima relação qualidade/preço, tem estacionamento grátis, está em frente a paragem de autocarros para o centro da cidade, bom ambiente e bom pequeno-almoço. Para uma viagem de 11 noites pela islândia, a nota global deste hotel é de 8.5 em 10. Acabámos por voltar a repetir este hotel na penúltima noite da viagem, por ter sido tão agradável.

Great find at the outskirts of Reykjavik!

The self check-in (and check-out) worked like a charm - parking is very convenient, and there are a pizzeria and a supermarket in the building. The rooms are spacious and the dining area is conveniently right outside the rooms. The place is quiet and the overall atmosphere is very relaxing. Great breakfast buffet - and surprisingly low rate.
