I was very impressed by this apartment. It was beautifully furnished, clean and well equipped.The staff in the day and night could not have been more helpful. Why have I given it such a low rating. Well for anyone partying all night and using it as a crash pad it would be superb. For anyone wanting a nights sleep it... More

We recently spent 6 nights at Room With a View and it was wonderful. We arrived very early and the front desk was kind enough to let us check in as soon as we got there. I was traveling with my wife and 9 year old, so I had a few concerns on noise based on other reviews, but that... More

We stayed in two contrasting rooms as we had to move when the roof blew off (I am not exaggerating). The first room was in the annexe across the road and would have been spacious even for a group of four, with well-equipped kitchen, great views, balcony, and some soundproofing from a set-back location and good quality windows (if not...

Well our room didnt have an amazing view (we were in 311 and had a street view) but that didnt matter....to be fair, our 'room' wasnt a room either...it was a great apartment!! The apartment was a great size for 4 of us, with 2 bedrooms, fully equipped kitchen, dining area, lounge and bathroom. And the location was spot on.... More

Centrally located, reasonably priced. Went to Iceland for a bachelor party and we had 10 guys going, got 2 of the bigger rooms and it could not have worked out any better. Plenty of space, plenty of place for everybody to relax and play cards when we wanted a little down time. Location is perfect, can walk to almost anywhere.... More

Like other reviewers we found this to be more than adequate for comfort and very amenable for saving on meal costs with fridge and cooking accomodations. We readily concur with others about the very helpful staff and the hotel's location. Unfortunately, we also concur with other comments about the night noise. This, however, is not something the hotel can control.... More

We really enjoyed our three-night stay in Reykjavik at Room with a View. We were very centrally located AND had a lovely view across the inlet. Heidrun and Stefan at the front desk were extremely helpful with recommendations for restaurants (Grey Cat, Vegamot, and the Tapashusid on the wharf). One caveat - if you really need quiet, this lodging is... More

We read the reviews about the noise levels at Room With a View before we booked but naively thought it would be fine. We booked a room on the fifth floor to try and be as high as possible and while this probably did help a little bit, every night it was like sleeping in a nightclub! My boyfriend and... More

With the idea that this was an apartment versus hotel, the room exceeded my expectations. In addition to what you'd find in an apartment with options for cooking on your own, we also got regular service (towels replaced, beds made, etc) which you do not always find with an apartment. The location was excellent - on the main street with... More
