The whole story in a nutshell

A beautiful, family-run guesthouse that radiates warmth and care. Fresh smoothies and cake greet you every day, while a calm garden and stunning views enhance your stay. The amenities are thoughtfully arranged, and the owners treat you like friends. Perfectly located near attractions, making it a restoration for travelers.

Staying at the Freyja was a delight. The location is super central, making it easy to walk to most attractions or catch a bus for tours. I loved the cozy common lounge on the top floor. it provided a perfect spot to unwind with a view. The staff truly made my stay special, accommodating my early check-in and storing my luggage after checkout. Daily smoothies and cake were such a sweet addition to the experience! The room was clean, and the beds were extremely comfy. A minor issue was the noise from adjacent rooms. the thin doors meant I could hear conversations next door. Despite this, I would gladly return, especially given the terrific breakfast options at the nearby café!

Lovely common lounge with relaxing views.

The walls are paper thin. I could hear everything from neighbouring rooms, which made it hard to find privacy. The shared bathroom situation was also a bit of a nightmare, especially since cleanliness suffered as various guests neglected their responsibilities. And to top it all off, the towels in my room felt quite worn and could have been fresher.

Cozy rooms with well-decorated interiors. The kitchen on each floor is fully stocked, making it easy to cook up a meal after a long day.

The shower setup can be tricky. it took a while to figure out, and the shower head didn't stay in place as adjusted. Cleanliness in shared bathrooms tends to decline throughout the day, and finding free parking can be a hassle for newcomers, requiring some extra time to circle the block.

I had a great stay with my family. The rooms were cozy and well-decorated. We loved the communal kitchen, which was perfect for cooking together. The friendly staff gave us excellent tips for exploring. Plus, daily smoothies were a nice touch! 😊

I had a delightful stay with a lovely daily smoothie and access to a well-stocked kitchen. The shared bathroom was sometimes tricky, but overall, the experience was memorable. I'd definitely return!

Reykjavik adventures ☀️

Wow, the location is just awesome! Close to the church and super lekker cafés. The staff were such chommies, gave us wicked tips for exploring. And, oh man, that brekkie selection every morning was on point, especially the ham and cheese!

The bathroom sharing was a bit tricky at times, but we made it work!

The kitchen was fully stocked, and free bike rentals were a highlight! Our room had chocolates on the pillow.

I stayed for 2 nights in a Deluxe Double or Twin Room with Shared Bathroom, and it was fantastic! The location is incredibly convenient, making it simple to explore Reykjavik. The warm and cozy rooms, along with well-equipped kitchens on each floor, added to the comfort. Daily smoothies and cake were a lovely treat, and the communal lounge with a nice view was a perfect spot to relax.

Shared bathrooms could be a bit tricky at times.

Just an optimal selection for a passing visit in Reykjavik with exceptional value. I appreciated the cozy lounge area with a great view to relax after a long day of exploring. Consider bringing your own heavy towels as the ones provided could be better.

Great location near Hallgrimskirkja and clean, spacious rooms. Shared bathrooms can be tricky.
