Hotel Von

My stay at Hotel Von in Iceland was an absolute delight! Nestled amidst the nicest shops, numerous restaurants, and vibrant nightlife, the location couldn't be better for exploring and enjoying the local scene. The room itself was the epitome of cozy, offering a warm and inviting space to unwind after a day of adventure. While the absence of a coffee machine was noted, this minor detail was far outweighed by the pleasant surprise of an upgrade to a family room on the street side. Despite the lively area, the room remained a quiet haven, ensuring restful nights. Hotel Von's strategic location, combined with the comfort of the accommodations and the serene environment, even amidst the buzz, made my stay memorable. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a blend of convenience, comfort, and the best of Icelandic hospitality.

The location is brilliant, on the main strip, plenty of bars and restaurants, shop next door, near bus stops, great view of the harbour, nice and warm. Friendly staff, shout out to Gatis.

The hotel is exactly what we needed for a 3 night stay in Reykjavik! The location was perfect and it was easy to get around on foot to the cafes, restaurants and other sites. It was also close to bus stops for tour pick up and drop offs! The room was small but exactly what we needed and the shower had great pressure and lovely smelling toiletries - exactly what we needed to try and recover from our jet lag. The only “negative” comment to make would be due to the placement of the shower door, the bathroom floor often got wet. Aside from that everything was wonderful, the staff were super friendly and helpful and we were even able to check in early which was a godsend after our flight from Canada arrived at 5:30am. I highly recommend Hotel Von to anyone visiting Reykjavik and I can’t wait to go back some day soon! :)

We stayed over the weekend here. Excellent location in the heart of the city. There are tons of restaurants and shops around. Deluxe Double room is a good size for 2 people, spotless, modern, having a comfortable bed. We requested a quiet room on the upper level (facing the sea side) upon reservation. And they provided exactly what we asked for. The hotel staff was very helpful and friendly. The only downside was that hotel didn’t provide any breakfast. However, there is a free high quality coffee machine at reception available 24/7. And there are few places nearby available for breakfast in the early morning. Can recommend Sandholt (bakery & coffee shop with a seating area) or Grái kötturinn (American style breakfast). Both places are just few mins away by foot. We also booked the Golden Circle tour through the hotel in advance. It started at around 9.00am (but the waiting time outside could be about 30-40 mins) and took about 9 hours with the multiple stops ie Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss Waterfall, Geysers, Fridheimar Farm & restaurant for lunch and the Secret Lagoon. They pick you up from the nearest bus stop N9 which is just 5 min walk from the hotel. From/To the airport you can use FlyBus services. You can buy the tickets online or at arrivals. Or you can also book the return tickets to the airport at the hotel reception. In general, we had quite a pleasant stay (regardless of the pouring rain;-) and could highly recommend this hotel.

On site cafe has excellent breakfast for purchase and very accommodating. The hotel desk staff ( hey Jose!) were polite, knowledgeable and very helpful. The location was excellent and in walking distance from most restaurants and attractions. The room was very Scandinavian (imagine that!) with very comfortable beds, very clean and at a very reasonable price, especially for such a prime location.
