Lodgings range from modern, first-class Scandinavian-style hotels to inexpensive guesthouses and B&Bs offering basic amenities at relatively low prices. Iceland's climate makes air-conditioning unnecessary. Most hotel rooms have televisions, though not always cable TV. Lower-price hotels sometimes have a television lounge in lieu of TV in each room. Ask if your hotel offers complimentary admission tickets to the closest swimming pool.
Occupying a refurbished 1900s department store once owned by Consul Ditlev Thomsen, the Konsulat offers modern luxury with a nod to Reykjavík's past. The hotel features stylish rooms, a bathhouse with a 19th-century stone wall, a 24-hour fitness center, and the Konsulat Wine Room serving Icelandic-European cuisine.
With a number of self-catering apartments in the center of town, this place is for those who prefer to cook their own meals and would like some extra space. All apartments have access to a Jacuzzi, and there's a sauna available, too. The very friendly staff can assist you in planning the rest of your trip. There are also individual rooms you can book.
If you're after the best views in the city, Tower Suites and its eight accommodations will deliver. These luxury stays are more like homes, allowing you to really sink into life as the luckiest local.
