Designed by former state architect Gudjón Samúelsson in 1917 this boutique hotel combines architectural appeal, prime location in the centre of Reykjavik, just 650 metres from the harbour, comfortable accommodation and excellent services. After work, shopping or visiting popular local points of interest like the Hallgrímskirkja Church, guests can unwind with a book or a film in the subdued elegance of their room, among calming muted colours and subtle architectural details. A drink in the on-site bar and a dinner of fantastic local specialties in the stately elegance of the hotel's restaurant will prove an excellent ending of the day.
