Overall Ratings & Reviews Hotel Vera

This hotel couldn't have a better location. Right in the middle of everything and a 3 minute walk to the bus stop but at the same time was a lovely and peaceful stay.

Great location. Walking distance to everything. Try the restaurant Krons. Awesome experience.

It’s at a great location for downtown Reykjavik and close to excursion pickups

Hotel Vera was right downtown and in a perfect location! Accessing the room was quick and easy. The room was very comfortable and clean for the most part; there was mold on one of the shower heads. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again!

Conveniently located on Langavegur St, Bonus Supermarket is just 2mins walk away, plenty of good restaurants in the vicinity. Must try: Old Icelandic Restaurant. Sincere service & awesomest food! Hotel service staff can be easily reached via messenging service that links to Hotel Vera within Hotels.com app. Check in is simple with entrance & room doors PIN code sent 1 day prior to check in. The only flaw is, the elevator (lift) can only be accessible via the restaurant on the ground floor & the restaurant will block the access pin pad at the entrance during their business hours. So if you are checking in with luggage / have difficulties with stairs & needing the lift during meal times, good luck to you. The restaurant staff will ignore & pretend not to look at you despite your knocks on the glass door.

I loved staying here. It was so easy to arrive, use the information in the email including tutorial for keypads, lovely property, very convenient location.

The location is excellent just a block away from bus stop #9 where all the airport/tour/local buses pick up/drop off. It’s on the main shopping street where all the restaurants and shops are located. Hotel room was very modern and it has a nice fridge and kitchenette. The kitchen rag needs some attention or replacement as I found hair from previous inhabitants on it. If you are going during the winter time and when there are snow on the roof, it may not be a good idea to stay here because if you are placed on the first floor and get a room with a sky window, it will leak melted snow from the ceiling to the area around your bed. The shower stall was a big challenging to fit and maneuver in for a 6 ft person but that’s to be expected in most places in Iceland. The attached restaurant Kröns is very nice if you don’t want to venture far.

Check in was horrendous. Was completely clueless what to do. They didnt send me the email till 5:30pm, chdck in was at 3. Had to wsit outside to get the wifi and codes from the janitor. Rooms were tidy inside but the smell was atrocious. We had to go inside a restaurant to enter our rooms and the entire room smelled like urine. Stayed in iceland for 7 days. Worst stay so far.

This is in a very busy area! Hotel is steps from temple bar and so many good food options. It’s walkable to various museums and many things to do. It is a bit loud and busy so if you have a young family or want a quiet space, this may not be it. But the staff was very nice. Our first room had a leak in the bathroom but they switched rooms for us. They were very accommodating and peasant. The pics on Orbitz didn’t look like our rooms but still very nice and so convenient.

Fantastic location! Our room was perfect for a short stay. Except minor inconveniences such as the TV wasn’t functioning well, door hob was coming off, it was a really good stay!

Excellent service. Very close to everything. Best part is stove where you can cook. Save a lot of money.

Excellent

Everything 👏

Great simple property. It was a little odd to not have a front desk or real hotel staff, but it wasn’t bad at all. They were very responsive on Expedia if I had any questions and it’s very easy to go in and out with the smart lock. It was very quiet and very safe. Perfectly located to all the shops and sights. Would stay here again

Its convenient . Easy check in easy check out. Its in the heart of downtown, restaurants and shops are accessible. The facility is clean and the kitchen utensils are a plus. I totally appreciate the hand soap with a pump. The bathroom was clean but it smelled like pee though when we arrived. Other than that, we had a good stay. A perfect space for 2 not cramped at all, ample closet and baggage space. Id stay here again .

5 stars for location but knocked down to 3 which is pretty generous considering we were in a first floor location that felt like a dungeon… no windows just a skylight which fogged up and dripped on us, and that you can look right into from the top balcony rooms. Room was way too hot despite us turning it off, and there was nothing we could do to alleviate it since there are no windows to open. We had no power when we got in our room and had to wait around to have someone look at it since there is no on site staff. Location is ideal which is the saving grace, but the room was far from it.

PERFECT

The only issue was difficult using the codes and getting into the room code

This is NOT a hotel, there is NO staff on site! I tried not to rent any property that is not a hotel, but the name tricked me!!! You have to punch code to get in. The entry door was stucked so badly that it made you wonder if could ever get in. The telecomm is a joke, they couldn't hear you clearly, so did I. The room feels like a jail cell, because the "window" is on the ceiling! The worst "hotel" experience I ever have.

Nice property centrally located
