Our stay at Alda Hotel was very comfortable. The bed and sheets were exactly to my liking, making for a great night’s sleep.

The location is excellent and made it easy to get to our tour bus pickups. Everything you need is within walking distance, and having a Starbucks conveniently located in the hotel was a nice bonus. The hotel also has a lovely restaurant, and I especially enjoyed the cute outdoor hot tub just outside the gym, which also features a nice sauna.

The only downside for me was the breakfast (I’m a vegetarian). There weren’t many vegetarian options, and the selection was exactly the same all three mornings we stayed. The eggs didn’t taste like real eggs, and the baked beans tasted like they came straight from a can. On the positive side, the beetroot shots were delicious, and there was a nice selection of cheeses and fresh croissants.

Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely recommend the hotel. If you’re a vegetarian, though, you may want to enjoy breakfast elsewhere.

I would highly recommend the Alda Hotel. It is clean, quiet and located near the important areas. It's a very short walk to the bus stops that take you on the various excursions. It's also next to the public bus which is easy to use. It's on the main shopping street accessible to many different (and excellent) restaurants. The rooms are immaculate. The restaurant is great for breakfast. I stayed with my family and it was the perfect spot.

The location of this hotel was excellent. It was close to bus stop #9 which our tour operator picked us up from. It is on a great street filled with shops and restaurants. The breakfast buffet at the hotel was filled with a good assortment of foods.
The staff was very helpful with answering my questions, getting us a taxi, and holding our luggage due to a late departure so we could still enjoy the day.
And for coffee lovers, there is a Starbucks attached.

It was excellent hotel and the staff was very helpful and accommodated our requests too. The only drawback was there were no microwave and iron for clothes. I wish they had those things then our stay would be more comfortable as we have dietary restrictions. The location of the hotel was excellent as the bus stop 9 was just 4-5 mins walk. Also, the church and rainbow street was at walking distance. We don’t drive so it make sense to book this hotel in center of Reykjavík.

Cute hotel, great location. Close to Bus Stop 9 which was easy for shuttle/tour pick ups.

Very nice front desk staff

Only small note is that there was no apparent A/C in the rooms, so if you run hot and you need to crack the window, if you're on a street facing room, you can have some noise pollution as well as cigarette smoke from street level. Bring a small fan if you're a warm sleeper like me!

Wouldn't hesitate to return here

Highly recommend this property! I travel a LOT and I can say the women who work at this hotel are exceptional ( the man at the front....not so much :-) The room is very clean and simple. I had a very large shared balcony. I do travel with two portable door alarms, so situations like this are not a concern to me. The balcony has a good view of the volcanic mountains in the distance. You're given a PHONE when you arrive which you carry with you as you travel around. You can call the front desk or other rooms or taxis with the phone! What a great idea! All the taxi drivers know where the ALDA is. It's also attached to a restaurant on one side and STARBUCKS on the other! It's on a main street with exceptional shopping and restaurants! Of course there is a FREE water station downstairs to fill up your bottles with Icelandic water. The front desk called my taxis for me, and even assisted on some of my travel planning. My first time in Iceland and I will now be back and staying at the ALDA again!

The rooms were below average with very basic amenities, not even a refrigerator. The mattress was horrible. The queen room was about the size of a college dorm room with some strange light with a sweater sleeve covering? The location is ideal for the tours.

It was relatively clean, staff was polite but short, location was great. I was a bit disappointed that the balcony was not private and had a stair leading down to the street, that made me feel slightly unsafe and was not mentioned in the listing. The sheets and duvet cover also had old stains and hair on them, and two out of three times we talked to staff they seemed annoyed that we bothered them, even tho we were quiet and respectful. The room often had a smell like sewer that we couldn’t figure out where it was coming from. One other thing that was kind of annoying was the lack of good blackout curtains, which made a huge difference when the sun only set for about an hour. It seemed like we paid far more than what it was worth. It wasn’t terrible, but also wasn’t great.

Great location. Easy to walk to most shopping and cafes in downtown. The geothermal hot tub was very nice. Although small, it packed a punch of 41c. So 10 min was most i could manage in any session. The hotel offers a grab&go in the morning if your up and out early before the breakfast room opens at 7am. Given the high prices of everything in Iceland, having breakfast included was a major benefit. There is a Starbucks and a barbers attached to the hotel lobby, plus a resturant/ bar. I didn't use these options, but they seemed to be busy. The airport- flybus, will drop you off at stop 9, which is 2 small blocks to walk to the hotel.

We (family of four, 2 kids under 13), had an outstanding stay at Alda Hotel in Reykjavik and would absolutely return.

The location is hard to beat—right in the heart of the city and within easy walking distance to major sights, great restaurants, bars, and shopping. It made exploring Reykjavik incredibly convenient, whether we were heading out for a quick coffee or a full day of sightseeing.

Our room was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully laid out. Everything felt well-maintained and true to what we expected when booking, which is always appreciated.

The staff really stood out. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, welcoming, and quick to help with anything we needed. Whether it was answering questions, offering recommendations, or assisting with small requests, they were consistently prompt and professional.

One thing to note is parking. Since the hotel is located in a very popular and central district, finding a nearby spot can sometimes be a bit challenging. Be prepared for a short walk, especially if you have luggage. That said, it’s a small trade-off for being in such a prime location.

Overall, Alda Hotel delivered a fantastic experience—great location, comfortable accommodations, and excellent service. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Reykjavik

The location of the hotel is in the heart of Reykjavik and close to all attractions and most important of all, close to the #9 bus stop at Snorrabraut where all your excursions go out from. We utilized the gym and hot tub as well and it met our needs. The hot tub is a little small and outside. The restaurant attached to the hotel had great food and great service.
