Igdlo Guesthouse

Enjoyed my stay here. The hosts are very welcoming & helpful. Checkin is clear and also has Igdlo sign on building for easy find. Location is close to basically everything, and Bus 55, which saves over $25 round trip to KEF airport. The room and shared bathroom were always clean also. The rooms are small and the lighting not so bright, but overall it was fine, and a very good value for an expensive place like Iceland.

Great basic guest house, friendly staff, good location and bonus of breakfast and well equipped kitchen

Nice and clean. Great staff and location. Would highly recommend.

The room was clean, and they provided good check-in instructions.

Great location to explore Reykjavik from! Reasonably priced. People did a good job of sharing the bathroom on our floor.

Always enjoy staying here. Owners are present and helpful. Met new people and it is quiet but yet close to shops - within walking distance. Close to BSI Terminal - arriving from Keflavík airport it is easy 15 min walk to Igdlo Guesthouse.

Kitchen facilities very good. Great espresso machine, and system in place to share food that guests leave behind rather than let it go to waste.

Exactly what I needed for my last night in Iceland! Thank you!

I don't like sharing a bath room.

The accomodations here were good. No better, no worse. The location is a 15 min walk to the action in town. The room was clean but pretty rundown. The fitted sheets on the bed were rioped around the elastic and there were some pretty sketchy outlets throughout. It worked for a quick place to crash but I would not go back for anything more than that.

The bed was comfortable and the light in this room good enough to read by. Breakfast was basic. Coffee and tea were good. Fortunately, I had an extra bed to put things on; otherwise, where to put my belongings would have been a challenge. I had to move a small stand so that my phone had a place to sit while being charged at the lone available outlet. No TVs worked. The guesthouse is conveniently located near the airport bus terminal.

Great value and the owners were easy to work with

We didn't know what to expect but it was a very good place with comfortable beds and actually no extras. Shared bathroom worked out fine and it was a good place to stay for a reasonable price

Small place, nice kitchen area with frig for free food and personal food. They offer a small breakfast for a fee. You can do your laundry. Very close to bus station.

My husband and I enjoyed our one-night stay in a unit with a private bathroom and kitchenette. The kitchen area wasn't very well stocked, and the camping stove wasn't the best to use, but it got the job done for a one-night stay. It's a little bit of a walk from the main area with much of the dining, and a short drive to a Bonus grocery store. All in all, it was a decent stay for Iceland.

The sheets were stained. Bath towels were what I use as rags at home. All dishes in shared kitchen chipped, cracked and/or finish gone. Smoke detector battery low and peeped constantly. Walking distance to centre of the city

Check-in was easy enough although I saw that I had a different--and preferred--room assignment. (A second email to me wouldn't open until I arrived.) Map Quest was very wrong on distance from Harpa Concert Hall. The bed was very comfortable. There wasn't enough light to read by, so I went to sleep after the outside light dimmed. There were no directions on how to "clean the machine" after only one-third of a cup of coffee brewed, and I couldn't get more.

Friendly and welcoming staff

Extremely quiet, some road noise evident in the background but mundane in my opinion. Quiet neighborhood, great location. 10 minutes from BSI and shops. All kitchen amenities however the shower took some expert navigation. Got easier as I figured out how to make the hot water last without being too cold or hot. All part of the Icelandic experience!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in early Sept, 2025. The host was a sweet teddy bear, the room (economy twin with private bath) was comfortable and clean with a nice kitchen outside the room. We didn't use the kitchen, but it looked fully stocked. It's very near the bus station (17 min walk), with a stop across the street, including HOHO. The only thing I wished was to have restaurants near by. There is a wonderful coffee shop (Brikk) an 8 min walk, but that's it. I'll definitely be staying here again!
