Dear Alla. Thank you for your review and naming Hera especially. She got an extra big piece of candy for getting a mention in your review.

We have just returned from staying at this Hotel after celebrating a 30th birthday in Iceland. On arrival check in was quick and prompt and we were in our room within minutes. Rooms were adequately sized, if its not big enough you are spending too much time in your room and not enjoying Iceland!! Rooms were cleaned and hoovered everyday... More

We chose this hotel because we'd heard about the art collection. It turned out to be a wonderful choice -- on a quiet street, yet close enough to the center of town that it was an easy walk to restaurants and shopping. The staff was unfailingly gracious and friendly, the entire building is practically an art museum, and the attached... More

Dear Docwatson. Thank you for the glowing review of our property. I am glad you enjoyed the unique art collection we hold so dearly to our hearts. A sidenote to that story is that the daughter of the original owner, still owns the hotel now. I always share Tripadvisor feedback with my staff but from your review onwards, I will... More

Stayed here for a week during my birthday. Had the most amazing time, the staff ( so sorry I can't remember the names but the brunette at the front desk,the concierge who helped with my wi fi and the blond gentleman-I think the manager were all exceptional) were all super friendly, helpful and sweet. The artwork within the hotel was... More

The hotel is a little bit out of the city center but still within walking distance(about 15 minutes). We stayed 3 nights. The room was comfortable, clean and quiet. Breakfast was good. People at the front desk were very helpful. I would gladly stay at this hotel again. Overall quality and reasonable price make it a very good find More

Dear Ryokogasuki. Thank you for your review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. Next time though, just step by the front desk and ask for directions because it shouldn´t take you 15 minutes to get to the center. It should take you a maximum of 5 minutes walk. We look forward to welcoming you again soon. Warm regards, Snorri More

We needed to make a very short notice reservation here and the hotel was very accommodating and helpful. We reserved a junior suite and a double room. The double was small for the two 21 yr old girls - my daughter and niece , but that was mostly due to the amount of clothes they scattered around the room .... More

This hotel is one of the highly rated boutique hotels. I went during November 2011 and got a steal ($70/night on Orbitz). I think it's regularly $200+. The art that adorns each floor is like being in a museum. And though it's a little off the main streets (only by 5-6 blocks) it's so worth it as it was quiet...... More

We stayed at the Holt for 3 nights in early December during our first visit to Iceland. It was my sister's birthday and being impressed by the other reviews I informed reservations about the occasion but they didn't arrange anything special on our arrival.

The three things I will remember most about Hotel Holt are: 1) Above all, the amazing service. Just perfectly kind and knowledgeable service from Natasha, Jay, Alba, everyone at reception, every staff person I interacted with. 2) The breathtaking art. The hotel itself is quite beautiful, but then also every inch of it is adorned with beautifully curated art. I... More
