We had a lovely stay. Þórgunna was a kind and gracious host. We enjoyed spending time talking with her. The bed was comfortable and my wife and I slept great. The window shade was sufficient to keep it dark for the short summer nights. Keep in mind that there is a space for you to make breakfast, not breakfast provided. We were a bit confused by that. The location was perfect to spend a week in Iceland and take day trips to other locations. We saw most of the big things in the southwest. Overall, a wonderful stay.

The place is as in the pictures online and her place was very clean and nice!

Thorgunna is a sweet wonen, she give me tips and advice so my vacation got better.(where to go/ Nice swimming Pools) the house is very Nice, Nicely decorated i dont know how to describe, but its Nice,clean and warm. The room was big enough. And also close to foodshops.

Great place to base yourself around Reykjavik if you've got a car. Super lovely host, she helped provide suggestions for my trip and we even shared a lovely meal together! I would definitely stay again :)

Beautiful spacious apartment in a quiet residential neighborhood with a lovely host. My room was comfortable and clean. Great swimming pool with sauna and hot tubs in the neighborhood.

We stayed with Thorgunna for our first two nights in Iceland. Thorgunna herself was a kindhearted, loving and extremely generous woman who we, as two young female traveller, felt completely safe and comfortable with. Her home had such a positive energy and she made it so easy for us to feel at home. She went above and beyond anything we would have expected from our host. Her giving and caring nature shone though over the 2 days we spend with her and it genuinely enhanced our experience of Iceland. One of the highlights of the whole trip were the wonderful pancakes we had together on her dining table. She even shared her sisters homemade blueberry jam! This overlooking her view of the mountain made it one of those perfect moments of our trip. She introduced us to Icelandic culture and helped shape our trip activities, giving us advice on the must see places. What made our stay with her so special was how much we were able to share and learn about each other. She took us on a walk around the local area where we were able to see a waterfall and some Icelandic horses. She dropped us off to the local swimming baths which was an experience in itself! She was kind enough to drive us on occasions and even came to our rescue when we got lost! As if that wasn't enough, even after our stay with her, she called us after to check up on how we were and we arranged to meet the day before we left at her favourite teahouse. We shared photos and created memories. By the end she was more than just our host, as she took real good care of us and became a huge part of our experience. The best way to experience a country is through the eyes of the people who live there and I couldn't recommend staying with her enough. She is such a wonderful person who made our trip better. Thank you for being so good to us. We miss you already

Porgunna was a Great host. The instructions to get to the house were good, and the Wifi was also good. The room was clean and there were plenty of things to do literature in the room. She has lived in Reykjavik a long time and knows all of the places to go. All in all A Good Place to stay.

Very nice place!

We stayed one night at Karl's house. Everything was perfect, the room was clean and we had access to the kitchen.

We had a pleasant stay! Karl and his wife are friendly and welcoming. We had everything we needed. There is an amazing pool 5min walking from the house. It is near Reykjavik and the Golden circle. The dog and the cats are nice and gentle, we loved staying there.

Sistemazione economica ma in linea con altre ben più costose. Quartiere residenziale tranquillo, in un quarto d'ora si è a Reykjavik e si è vicino alla strada per il circolo d'oro. Coppia simpatica è disponibile, non ci sono stati problemi anche se siamo rientrati alle due di notte. Animali simpatici e affettuosi. Cucina a disposizione ben fornita.

Mosfellsbaer is a small suburb on the northeast edge of Reykjavik—roughly a 15 minute drive into the city. Karl and his wife have a cozy condo there with their dog and 3 cats, all of whom are incredibly sweet and friendly (we took Hekla on a walk, which she—and we—loved). They were warm, wonderful, gracious hosts and Karl is a fantastic conversationalist. The room is perfect: small but roomy, with a window looking out onto the mountain (!) to the west of Mosfellsbaer. Would absolutely stay there again!

Для нас был большим и приятным сюрпризом тот факт, что на далеком -далеком острове мы остановимся дома у людей которые говорят на русском )) Уютная комната в большой двухэтажной квартире. Есть терраса на втором этаже. Квартира находится в современном малоэтажном комплексе в пригороде Рейкьявика. Легко добраться на автобусе. Есть место для парковки авто. Приветливые хозяева и их домашние любимцы! (не подойдет тем, кто не любит собак и кошек)

Karl and his family were super kind and accommodating! Would recommend!

Great host. Mr Karl picked us up at terminal station which we were very graceful, his house is just like the picture, clean, cozy. Here is a friendly and happy family with his wife, daughter, one dog, three cats and Karl. We had a nie experience for one night staying.

Karl and his wife were very welcoming and friendly. They let us feel at home. Their dog and cats are very cute and nice to people.

Die Unterkunft ist außerhalb des Stadtkerns in einem ruhigen Wohngebiet gelegen. Wir haben uns bei Iris wohl gefühlt. Iris ist sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend.

Iris was a very good host. She didnt have problem with my late arrival. Night view over Reykjavik was nice. Her instructions how to get to her flat are very clear, nobody should have problem finding the place. There is wifi for guests, breakfast in the morning. Plus Iris helped me with getting to bus station in the city which was really great.

Wonderful location, 10 minute drive out of the city. Very nice and accommodating.

-

Iris was a warm welcoming host and was waiting up for us when are plane arrived later than expected. Easy in with an elevator and simple breakfast.

is ok voor 1 nacht

We spend here our last night in Iceland. The place is easy to find following the directions included in the pictures, and there is no problem to park de car. Moreover, there is KFC nearby that was very convenient to have dinner in, since we arrived around 9:00 pm. There are also supermarkets and gas stations in the area. Iris was a very kind host and gave us a warm welcome. The bedroom's size was good and it included a wardrove. The bed was very comfortable, too. Regarding breakfast, there were several options, and she asked us whether we prefered tea or coffee. I totally recommend Iris B&B.

Appartamento in stile vintage nella zona alta di Reykjavik, la signora Edda Iris vive da sola ed è stata molto gentile con noi, ci ha preparato una buonissima colazione la mattina e ci ha dato la possibilità di dormire in un grande letto con un bel panorama sulla città. Grazie ancora per la cordialità.

Einar is a very nice and helpful guy. He hosted me very spontaneous. Had a nice evening/night with some people from france he also hosted. His flat is a real bachelor's den but absolutely okay for one night.

Einar's is exactly as described, felt at home straight away and very welcomed! Einar and his friends are all down to earth and easy to get along with. Everything you need is at Einar's, 24 hour shop close by too and close to bus station for getting around. Will definitely stop by when I'm back in Iceland. Thanks Einar, had a sick time!

Nice and cheap way to sleep in Reykjavik !

Hey Einar, thanks for the nice apartment. All the best for the future.

Staying at Einar's place was really fun for a budget-friendly trip between my partner and I. With plenty of towels, a fun cat, and 24/7 access to a convenience store only 1 minute away, we had a casual and relaxing time in Reykjavik!

Einar's place was really continent for us, spending a few days in Iceland on a budget. We appreciated Einar's inputs and his honesty in introducing us to his place, which is exactly how he presents it. The flat is 20 minutes by bus from central Reykjavik, so not too bad. And it's in a great position if you rent a car and intend to visit the island. Here's a swimming pool 10 minutes walk, and 24h supermarkets round the corner.

My stay at Einar's place was great! Absolutely fits the description. The host keeps in touch with you regarding directions, etc. so that you don't face any issues when you reach Reykjavik. Very cool guy. Great to hand out with. Gave great suggestions. Took me to an awesome swimming pool and an even more amazing concert! I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to have a nice, chilled out experience in Reykjavik. Great value for money.

We had a great time with Einer Steinn he was very helpful and friendly. If your looking for a 4 or 5 star place to stay then this is not a place for you. It is his home and you share it with him. This place is for the open minded with the experiencing the young Icelandic culture.

Great hostel, incredibly clean and the staff was amazing. Location is a little weird, pretty far from the city center but if you have a car you're fine, it's like a 20-30 min bus ride from the city center. Kitchen was amazing especially when you realize how expensive Iceland is. I would definitely stay here again.

Very clean, nice and well maintained.

Really cool hostel to meet travelers and have a good rest! Really cool kitchen and atmosphere as well :)

Go

Vibrant Iceland is closer to airport than the main city. It's a great place to start or wind down at end of your trip, or if you want to chill out for a few days and plan excursions from there, which is what I did. The hostel itself is very clean & well maintained - also everyone speaks English too as in most of Iceland. There's a nearby grocery store where you can buy your goods for your stay. The kitchen is well stocked with supplies & utensils. There's storage room for your food in the fridge and in cubbies too. The free coffee is bonus & delish! Previous guests also leave "free" stuff too from food to shampoo. "Paying it forward" as I like to say! Also, with most hostels bathrooms can be hit or miss - this place has plenty of showers and bathrooms, all quite modern and clean. Lastly, the staff here are super friendly & helpful. Tony is very knowledgeable with activities and such. Colin also very nice and helpful. On my last day, I was quite ill and they were very accommodating with late check-out & made sure I was ok. Thanks guys; Great place, highly recommend!

Extremely friendly staff, esp Tony who helped us with the check in and gave us information on the ring road. The kitchen is really well equipped and very clean!

Really recommendable for people who have a trip on their own. Bergrún is very very nice.

Bergrun's place was perfect for my time in Reykjavik. The location was ideal - in the middle of the city and super accessible, while still on a quiet and nice street. The bed was comfortable, the bath had great water pressure, and the apartment itself was cute. Finally, the communication was also excellent - it was very clear how to get in and what to expect. Bergrun herself is great too - would definitely recommend a stay here!

Very cosy apartment, nice view, great host, everything as described. Late arrival was no problem and I could leave my bags there to better explore the city. Definitely recommend, will stay with Bergrun again if I can.

Great place and incredible host. I had an amazing time in Reykjavik, and Bergrun is kind, intelligent, friendly, and definitely contributed to the overall high quality of my time in Iceland

Anna's place was very comfortable and as described. Was very happy and slept well. Anna was a very nice person too and easy to chat to. Do recommend!

Anna is a great person and has very nice, tiny and cozy room for single strangers which is very comfortable. Close to the center but much quieter so you can sleep well at night. Definitely will come again ;)

Lovely cosy apartment, wonderful hospitality!

Nice and quiet though still very close to downtown. Absolutely best value for money.

We had a fantastic two night stay at Árni's place. It was a perfect stopping point between coming back from the Jokulsarlon Lagoon & driving the Snæfellsnes Peninsula the next day. Árni is really friendly but gives you your own space. There's a Bonus nearby as well as a great coffeehouse with some delicious breakfast options. It was also an easy drive to the airport in the morning - we were lucky to snag this place!

Arni's place is really comfortable and modern. He's good at communicating, making sure to have everything ready by the time one arrives. We didn't spend too much time in the apartment during the day since we had our days planned but the few minutes we were there Arni always made sure we were comfortable and we had everything we needed. Great spot!

Arni's apartment is so comfortable that felt that I was at home. I cooked breakfast everyday I washed clothes the wifi connection is perfect so I watched Netflix. Upon my arrival to beautiful Iceland Arni kept in communication with me at all times and it was easy to locate his place. He's a teacher and has everything at the house clean and in order. I would give him five stars. He has a small child her name is "Katerina" and she's gorgeous she's about six. She spends the night occasionally. I would highly recommend his place and would go back in a heartbeat. Thank you so much ArnI

Arni is a friendly host with a lovely space. Enjoy your stay.

Árni is an excellent host! He will give you privacy and your personal space if you want, but he is also very friendly and welcoming. I really enjoyed my stay! I wouldn't hesitate to return to his place if I visit Iceland again. Really nice apartment, beautiful scenery! The location is highly accessible from the city centre by bus. Perfect!

The place is modern and felt like home. Arni is a really friendly guy who is easy to communicate with and made us feel welcome.

Árni is great. The communication was perfect. Nothing was missing. We can happily recommend

Location: very good location but need car Host: great host, friendly, helpful Will recommend strongly. May go back in the furture

Wonderful time at this gorgeous place. Mountain views are spectacular, and Finni was a truly gracious host. Highly recommend!

Finnbogi was the perfect host. Very welcoming, friendly and helping. He gave us many advices for our road trip and had pleasure to talk about his beautiful country and history. The house is nice and clean and we had a private toilet. The area is nice with a beautiful view on a lake.

An amazing way of learning about Iceland´s way of life. Being hosted by Finnbogi gave us an alternative vision of Iceland, different from those showed to the tourist. All the stay was perfect

Finni was great. Super helpful. Very friendly, funny guy. Beautiful home with great art and breakfast. Really cozy bed! Can't thank him enough for his one on one wisdom of the country.

Finn's place was gorgeous- we stayed there twice during our trip and I would definitely stay again. He and his wife are so friendly and willing to help in any way possible- he even offered to drive us to the bus terminal. 10/10 in every aspect!

Finn's place is very nice, clean, and the view from outside is fantastic, the lake and the mountains. We have full access of the kitchen, bathroom , living room and he is very helpful. Finn is a very good conversationalist and very friendly personality. I would highly recommend this place if you are visiting Reykjavik.

Finnbogi's place was exceptionally clean and comfortable. He was kind and helpful.

Our stay with Heba and her family was absolutely great. They welcomed us with open arms on New Years Eve and helped us out with everything.

I couldn't stop marveling at the dazzling interior design inside Heba's home. The house is so warm and cozy just like its owner (and designer)! Heba and her husband were super accommodating, so nice, and extremely hospitable. Thanks for an absolutely wonderful stay in Reykjavik!

Heba was a very hospitable host, a lovely comfortable house

The place is beautiful, quiet and clean. Heba had been a great host and guided us for our overall stay in Reykjavik.

Would absolutely recommend Hebas place to anyone wanting to stay close to Reykjavik. The neighborhood is only a few minutes from downtown and very quiet and safe. The beds were very cozy and the bathroom was spacious and very clean. Towels and robes were provided and we had some great coffee and conversation with Heba in the morning. Wish we had stayed longer!

Heba went out of her way to help us time and time again with anything we needed, and was kind enough to cook us dinner and offer us breakfast the day we arrived! She even wrote me a little card for my birthday! The room is also very nice and the house is very warm and welcoming. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting the city! Heba, I'm sorry we didn't get to say bye. Thanks for everything!

Heba is the friendliest host I've met, and her place is really charming. Its got everything you need, including a powerful shower to wake you up or wind you down. There's plenty of privacy too, but when you need help, she'll readily pop down to give you a hand. She's also got plush towels, all the toiletries you need, a memory foam mattress, and an amazing dining room. Do yourself a favour and pick her airbnb if you're staying in Reykjavik. Its also just a 5min drive from a 24hr supermarket.

Heba was amazing with both support and communication. Her home is lovely and close to transport as well as some shops and restaurants.

Kami was just great. He waited for me till 1:30 am to arrive. His place was just perfect very cozy and close to public transportation. Had a wonderful stay with him

Nice hosts, room was comfy, a little bit out of town centre, but easy to access public transport.

Nice clean and cosy place. Welcoming host. This being my first airbnb exp and it lived up to the mary.

Un endroit très bien, une chambre de qualité à un très bon tarif pour l'Islande. Je recommande

The place is exactly what it looks like in the picture. It worked perfect and price was very reasonable for the area. Kami was a great host to talk to and very helpfull all the time!! He picked me up at the bus station for a modest price

Great place, clean room, friendly hosts.

Tina's place was very nice and comfortable for a short stay in Reykjavik. She accepted my request only a day before arriving that made everything very easy for me. The room was small and clean - definitely an excellent choice for a single person. Thank you, Tina!

My friend Kenneth had a good stay.

Great spot in Reykjaviks suburbia! We felt like coming home! Everything was well prepared, clean and the communication was very good. We absolutely recommend this spot! These people are the next super hosts.

Highly recommend!! Linda and her husband waiting for us to arrive even though it was later in the night. The bedroom and bathroom was very clean. Linda even provided us with a large variety breakfast and gave us insights on where to visit throughout Iceland. Her place is only a 20 minute drive from the centre of Reykjavik. We would definitely stay here again :)

Linda was a great hostess, she was very kind, helpful and she prepared an excelent breakfast for us. Her house is very nice and it is situated in perfect location. The surroundings is also really good for walks and so on. Moreover, the view from the living room window is incredible.

Linda and her husband were amazing hosts, nice and friendly. They provided a delicious breakfast with variety of food: eggs, avocado, ham and cheese, local yogurt, juices, coffee, breads, etc. Also they kindly spent their time helping us figure out places to go, explaining important details and showing us the distance on the map. Their house is beautiful and clean. Our bedroom was big and comfortable; we had a parking spot right in front of the house; neighborhood is quiet and well located 15min drive from the city. Linda cooked dinner for us on our last day, the tradicional Icelandic soup: OMG we loved it!!! We appreciate so much their help and hospitality. We feel extremely lucky that we found them!

Hóffý's place was just what we needed. Short yet sweet. And she came to let us in at an ungodly hour. Very nice lady too.

I t was great to stay with Hoffy especially as i was sick and had to bunk down for the day. Hoffy was very helpful and kind. I think everyone falls in love with Princess!

Out of city center but best for the money value! You'll find Hoffy willing to help with everything :)

Hoffy gave us a wonderful tour, which also includes a free night! Her place is also quite comfortable, though we were able to find better and easier-to-access accommodations within the city center for the same price. Thank you for hosting us!

The room dissapointed us a bit. Although we were greeted nicely and the room was clean, there was no closet space left (it was already full with other clothes). Also, on the add it says that Hoffy offers free tours, the information we found in the room told us otherwise (which of course makes sense, and we can't blame her for doing so, but it is misleading information.) The bed is really nice though and we slept well. Also, the privacy was good.

Really nice and convenient!!!!!

Stayed in Reykjavik in May for a few nights, this was a great deal for the trip. My only comment is that the apartment is a bit farther from downtown than I expected, but it is just across the street from the bus. Once we figured out the bus system (there is an app to download), it was quite easy to navigate. We spent our days on tours and were exhausted each evening, so used the kitchen to make dinner which was great. Overall, had a great stay, would recommend to anyone looking to save some money during their trip in Iceland.

Hoffy is very welcoming and friendly. She gave us a lot of tips and took us on a tour. We really enjoyed our stay!

Host gave us a very warm welcome, and we felt like a part of the family. The room is quaint but very comfortable and inside a beautiful greenhouse.

Clean and quiet place to stay. Great view of the mountain out of the window. High recommend to stay in here for special experience.

Logement très sympa situé à 5 minutes en voitures d'une petite ville ou l'on trouve tout ce qu'il faut pour le séjours et à 15km de la capitale. Merci beaucoup à Júlí pour son accueil et sa sympathie. Son logement a parfaitement remplie nos attentes. Notre séjours en Islande n'en a été que plus agréable.

Beautiful place, nice Julí ... we had wonderful time. Thank you!

Wonderful location, very quiet and scenic but also convenient to Reykjavik. Comfortable and memorable.

We really enjoyed our stay with Juli. The little apartment is very charming and cosy with beautiful views all around. Juli was really accommodating and made sure we had a great stay. We'd definitely stay again, thanks so much!

Our stay at Juli's was lovely and she was so nice. The accommodation is about 15-20 minutes from Reykjavik and there is some great countryside around.

Very clean, nice host, adorable animals , close to the city (20 min. Drive) heads up: detached bathroom, but still in the green house for those traveling in colder months. We loved this place! Thank you!

All was as gorgeous as described in airbnb. Communication was fast, the place is at walkable distance from Downtown as well as the old Harbour. Maria is awesome and was always happy to help. I recommend staying with her.

The heated tiles in the bathrooms were a dream! All of the amenities were fantastic, the place was nice and clean, and it was too convenient! Would definitely stay again

Really clean & good with a TV with netflix when traveling with children!

We loved staying at Maria Helena's place. The common areas are shared with other travelers, and two rooms to a bathroom, but we had no issues with the shared bathroom's availability, and enjoyed visiting with Maria Helena and our fellow travelers. She gave great, detailed instructions for check-in. You may want to take a quick look at the pictures on airbnb for your specific room and the outside door. There was some confusion with others checking in at the same time, but Maria Helena handled everything well and everything got sorted out quickly. I would definitely recommend staying here when visiting Reykjavik!

Great place, spacious and clean. The location was great as well. Fully recommend it.

Fantastic air bnb. Everything from the authentic Viking welcoming to the comfortable bed and clean bathroom made this spot perfect! Close to the public geothermal pool also close enough to walk to the harbor and downtown. Wifi was great as well! Will stay again if we return!

Todo estupendo. Una casa muy acogedora y muy bien equipada. Ambiente familiar. Buena situación para moverte por el centro de la ciudad. Estupenda anfitriona María Helena. Gracias

Exactly as advertised. Very clean and comfortable. Easy check-in with clear directions. Nice residential neighborhood not far from city center. Highly recommended!

I feel really lucky that I chose to stay at Rut's place, she and her husband are so nice~ you can take bus 3 from downtown to Rut's house, it looks far on the map, but actually it is ok! If I go to Reykjavik again, I will definitely stay at Rut's again!!!

It is a pleasure to know RUT and his husband . Very warm and accommodating and I felt like home. I highly recommend people to choose this place and I will definitely next time stay with this cute couple . cheers, Suman

Realy easy Check in Although in the middle of the Night. It is definently an air b'n'b, where you shall know and respect the House rules because you are really integreated in the life of the hosts.

I had a wonderful (EMAIL HIDDEN)munication with Rut was good, and her instructions were clear. She was able to accomodate me coming in on a late flight. Rut was also able to rent me a bicycle for the two days that I stayed in Reykjavik.

Ruth and her husband are such nice people! They helped me finding their house and I felt very welcome. Thank you !

Très bon séjour. Rut est une personne aimable est disponible , je ne parle pas forcément bien anglais mais elle à su se montrer aimable et patiente pour m aiguiller dans mon séjour . Logement confortable et calme .

the house is full of paintings,emotions,memories,and love. u will love to stay here.

No report

Tres bel emplacement, des hôtes agréables et prêts à rendre service. Place numéro 1 pour un séjour à Reykjavik!

Iceland was amazing and had a fantastic location to go around reykjavik.

Gudrun's house was easy to find from the airport and she was very helpful in making arrangements for me to come earlier than the usual time in case of bad weather. We had some pleasant talks about Iceland and she gave me some good advice about what to see. I felt that she had a very warm personality and gave me some good travel advice, which made my stay particularly enjoyable. For instance, when I mentioned that I had forgotten to bring a European plug converter, she went out of her way to phone several places and then to give me directions to a place that had one. Just one small tip, it could be worth mentioning the road sign directly outside her house as a marker. A couple of times I went past the house and then had to go back. I loved Iceland and would certainly hope to go to Gudrun's if I revisit.

Guðrun was a fantastic host who greeted me warmly and made sure I had everything I needed. The house was very well equipped, completely clean, warm and had a good atmosphere. I had an enjoyable shower, and slept well in the sizeable, comfy bed! The room, while small, had plenty of shelf space and hangers. I loved the idea of a fridge in the room, and appreciated having the alarm clock as an extra insurance for getting up in time in the morning. Getting there by bus is easy with directions from the Strætó app/site. The room was very good value, and I highly recommend it!

Perfect place to stay. I recommend it.

I had a really pleasant and comfortable 3-night weekend stay at Guðrún’s house. Everything was as described in the text and seen on the photos. You’ll stay in a little but comfortable room (with your own fridge there!) and can use Guðrún’s kitchen. She is an absolutely lovely host (and it wasn’t an issue that I arrived very late, at Friday midnight). The neighbourhood is really silent and the entire flat has a relaxing atmosphere. The only issue to note is the position of the house: it takes 30 minutes to the city centre by bus (local buses – (URL HIDDEN) – leave usually every 30 minutes, sometimes every 15 minutes, with the last bus from the centre at about 11:30pm).

Jeg bodde hos Gudrun fra fredag til mandag og er veldig fornøyd med oppholdet. Gudrun tok i mot meg ved ankomst og viste meg rundt i huset. Hun var vennlig og hjelpsom. Det var en avslappet og god atmosfære i huset. Senga var god å ligge i, ekstra + for eget kjøleskap. Terningkast 6! :)

The room has a fridge. The house is super clean. The owner is really kind. Everything you need!

Gudrun is by far the best host (not just 'one of') I met in Iceland. Most of the Icelandic hosts are rather cool/cold but Gudrun is super welcoming and the place is well equipped.

Gudrun is a great host. She is very friendly and helpful. I like the cozy room in her comfortable home. There was everything I needed.
