Staff very reactive when I was stuck with the wrong code. Really appreciated. Good facilities, very near the city center. Showers and toilets clean. Nothing to complain about. Towel given for free.

A very well cared for hostel with comfortable beds, easy to check in and out makes it an ideal low stress comfortable stay!

Excellent location – easy to find from the BSI bus terminal (just a short 12-15 minute walk). The facilities are decent and clean for a hostel. What really stood out was the staff’s responsiveness: we had a few questions before arrival and they replied to emails extremely quickly. One morning we woke up to find the power had tripped – the emergency number on the whiteboard worked perfectly, and the staff member responded politely and promptly to help us. This level of support is incredibly valuable when traveling. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and convenient base in Reykjavík!

The room could be cleaned daily and the bin emptied.

Clean and comfortable

Stayed 1 night. It was better than expected. Especially the cleanliness. Internal decoration is unique and ambiance is relaxing.

Hostel is conveniently located. Bathrooms were clean. Will point out that the kitchen was a bit messy and didn't see any staff. Make sure to bring shampoo. That is not provided. Overall would recommend

The single room was quite large with a large window, clean and comfortable. Furniture very basic.

Room was large and very clean. Bed was comfortable. Low frills but good for the price and for a short stay. I didn’t want to use the shower but I saw staff cleaning in the morning

Hostel B47 was a great place to stay. It was easy walking distance to the Main Street and the kitchen facilities are fantastic! We got woken up each night by other residents who forgot the code and got locked out but this isn’t the hostel’s fault.

I stayed for 2 nights with tween age kids. The room was clean and it was nice getting a towel. Great to have sink in the room. The kitchen had a fridge, microwave, toaster and kettle. We got the codes for doors to let ourselves in via email. Saw staff cleaning but had no interaction with any staff. The location was walkable to bus etc. We needed a place to store bags for a few hours on last day. The storage lockers outside were convenient, if expensive for just a few hours. I'm not sure what I would have done if they were all full though.

This was once a grand place. Its older now. Nice kitchen and public areas. Beds are very comfortable. Close enough to walk to restaurants and shopping.

Good hostel

Good location, self check in / check out system is good but there’s not luggage room for the guests to leave their luggage before check in time. I have to pay the luggage locker (just outside the hostel) instead, wasn’t happy about it.

Booked a room in a dorm just to find out that there was a glitch in the system and my bunk bed was taken. Not a great experience especially after a long flight and arriving past midnight. So no, I would not recommend this place.

The employee named Hang, she was helpful, friendly & professional. We didn't get the code to our room so she helped us to get hotel contact for our code. Great location, spacious room & common areas .

I stayed in one bedroom not shared. Its clean, quiet and I like that I can lock the door when I use the bathroom. Its 3 blocks away from the church and walkable to Reykjavik downtown. Also, another reason i stayed in this hostel is that they have free parking. I would definitely stay again if given a chance i come back to Reykjavik area. Highly recommended. :D Thank you for an awesome stay that made my first trip to Iceland a memorable one. See again next time.

It was very easy and felt safe as a solo female traveler

No reception staff. Three people approached me needing help to find their rooms. They had no emails after 1500 with the necessary info needed with room number and codes. Poor mattresses. Anytime anyone moved in bed the springs squeezed. I stayed in room 100 and around 0030 you could hear loud pounding upstairs and constant moving of what sounded like heavy chairs/furniture. The hall smells of faint sewer all the tome. Price was ok but won’t be back. Only convenience is great location.
