レイキャネース ゲストハウス

Lots of space

We were in room 1 - it was very large. Two sofas three bedrooms three bathrooms and a large kitchen. The warm air hit us as we walked in the door - very nice. No awful sprays or other bad odors. It was just what we needed including a washing machine to clean the baby clothes. I recommend staying here. It is a very practical and comfortable place. Papa’s pizzas and fish and chips is near and has good food. Other sights are close by and not busy.

Very unique property. We used it for our last day in Iceland .

Terrible area

Die Wohnung wird keine Schönheitspreise gewinnen, ist aber geräumig und gut eingerichtet. Ein ordentliches Restaurant liegt gleich nebenan. Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit unserem Aufenthalt.

Enjoyable stat before going to the airport the next morning.

Interesting property convesion to a guesthouse, but it works. Worked great for a family of 5.

We didn’t know where to take the trash. Also, maybe offer fans to people. There was a couple of warm nights (we like to sleep cold). Overall, excellent.

First guesthouse with a TV.

This guesthouse is in a converted storefront, which means it has a lot of space, which is great, but is also a bit awkward (for example, the the massive open shower in one of the bathrooms) and rather shabby (e.g. broken drawer in the kitchen, holes in the bedsheets). It was rather disappointing for the relatively high price and the owners/management are hard to get a response from about questions. It is in easy reach of the airport and the Blue Lagoon, but the town of Grindavik itself is rather gritty.

Great place to stay for an overnight at KEF!

The place is clean and adequate for a one night stay before heading to the airport. Communication is all done through email and the hosts seemed nice and respond quickly, but you will never see them and they are not present at the hotel. The hotel is listed with 3 stars. Personally, I think that's a little generous. There was body wash and shampoo in only one of the three shared bathrooms. The pillows were so lumpy and should absolutely be replaced. Instructions are left indicating to put your towels in the laundry basket and to wash/dry/put away any dishes that were used during your stay. It had the feel of a hostel rather than a hotel. Maybe this is normal for Iceland, but I think future guests should be aware when booking.

Our family stayed one night as we were coming back from visiting the southern part of Iceland. The area is quiet and beautiful and the beds were comfy.

The room is certainly great for the price. Lots of room, clean, right in the heart of Grindavik. Walkable to the shore and to most of the town. My only critique was the communication. There is no front desk and email was a bit spotty as I had limited Wi-Fi being an international traveler. As I was not traveling by car and had to rely on the limited bus schedule, it was hard for me to time my arrival for the strict check in and check out times. That is usually not an issue if bag storage is an option, but it did not seem to be. I had to hang around the spot next door for 2 hours waiting for check-in instructions instead of exploring the town. I want to emphasize that this was a minor setback in an otherwise fine stay. The room was everything I needed and certainly worth the price.

Gute Lage der Unterkunft. Grosses älteres Appartement Nicht so gut geheizt in den kalten Tagen. Alles vorhanden was man braucht

No staff, no greeting, no front desk, felt very unsafe

Når man ankommer tænker man skur men blev meget overrasket over hvor stort det var indenfor. Der var hvad man skulle bruge og som aftalt. Eneste minusser der var... meget lydt til de andre værelser op til og vandtrykket i bruseren var meget svagt. Brugt men godt og opfyldte vores behov.

Comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, even with dishwasher, very clean, quiet location, 20 minutes from airport.

Very convenient check in and clean rooms

Nothing fancy but comfortable. Great Fish & Chip restaurant next door
