Overall Ratings & Reviews Guesthouse Galtafell

Loved my stay. Great location.

We truly enjoyed our stay. We were comfortable, we were close to shopping and attractions. It was everything we needed and could have asked for!!! We will definitely stay there again!!!

Excellent location walking distance to downtown and bus station, comfortable unit, beautiful property, friendly and helpful staff. I would absolutely recommend this lodging to future travelers.

Lovely apartment not far from the BSI and also a short walk or scooter journey downtown. Spacious property for two staying a week. Was tidy, practical and would highly recommend

A great place to stay. Super clean and very large. We had two bedrooms and a full kitchen. The heated floors in the bathroom were a wonderful surprise. Only a 10 min walk from the bus terminal. The host was very helpful. We were able to drop off our luggage pre checkin so we didn’t have to cart it around all day. Would highly recommend.

Great location..easy walk to the centre and bus station.. Check in very easy... When asked a question via the app..received answer straight away ...

The staff is helpful

The room is much smaller than depicted in the pictures. It’s located next to a noisy street, and the door is extremely difficult to open.

Ottima posizione ed appartamento comodissimo

Great location! Close walking distance to downtown! Easy street parking! Small but perfect for what we needed for a few days.

We had a great stay here. Was close to downtown and had good space in the two bedrooms.

Pleasant staff, appreciated ability to store our luggage before room ready. Convenient walk with luggage from BSI terminal.

Convenient location near BSI Terminal (bus station)

Small space, but we were here for less than 18 hours! Perfect space for a short stay!! Small kitchen available to use too.

Great location, close to bus terminal and downtown (there is a bit of a slope in the surrounding neighborhood if that is a concern for anyone), and also in a quiet neighborhood. There is a little bit of wear and tear from previous travelers, which is completely understandable. Overall, very comfortable and would definitely come back. Thank you!

It was very nice to have our own room and bathroom away from the main house. It made it so we could come and go as we pleased which was very important for us to see the Northern lights. There is daily housekeeping so we never had to worry about things getting very dirty. Would definitely go back here if I come back to Iceland.

The owner was extremely responsive to any questions we had and was very helpful. The apartment is beautiful and comfortable. The linens on the beds were very nice and towels were replaced every day. Parking is an issue nearby if you happen to rent a car. Several times we had to park more than three blocks away. The shower and bathtub combo is not handicapped accessible if you need that. We loved having a small kitchen which helped to save some money on foods. Coffee and tea is provided and the brands are excellent!

We booked a one-bedroom suite at Guesthouse Galtafell for a quick overnight stop in Reykjavik. Communication from the property was excellent; they reached out to confirm our preferences a week ahead of time, and accommodated them perfectly. Check-in and out were a breeze. Although our short stay did not allow us to fully take advantage of the amenities, we noted that the suite was spacious and kitchen equipped with everything we would need for a longer stay. The property was clean and walkable to town and local attractions. It was also more reasonably-priced than other properties (in the centre of town) we've stayed at previously. The property itself is older (like many buildings in Reykjavik) but our suite was newly renovated, comfortable and modern. It's also very close to the domestic (not KEF) airport and the bus terminal. We would definitely place Guesthouse Galtafell at the top of our list for future trips to Reykjavik!
