Our stay at guesthouse Sunna was very nice. The location was close to downtown and many excellent restaurants. The church and all the sights in the area were within walking distance. The room was very clean and quiet. It was helpful that we brought eye masks, even with curtains and shades closed a small amount of light leaked into the room. We would definitely stay at guest house Sunna during another visit to Reykjavik.

Guesthouse Sunna was an excellent property and the best place I stayed in Iceland. First, the property was clean and well appointed. I had everything I needed there. The location is also perfect. I didn’t realize how perfect until I spent my last night in Reykjavík at a fancy hotel in the center of the city. At Sunna, it was peaceful and quiet at night (in city center it was loud and crazy with nightlife). The breakfast was delicious and healthy. The staff were so helpful and welcoming. It will definitely be my first choice if I am able to return to Reykjavík. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Location, location, location - Sunna definitely takes the cake. Right by the Hallgrimskirkja church and bus stop 8, we were easily able to get on our bus for the Golden Circle tour just a block away. Main streets were about a 10 minute walk away - maybe 20 minutes to the Old Town. Our room was quite large with a refrigerator and a very nice shower. The staff were very helpful in answering questions and the breakfast was a typical European breakfast with homemade banana bread! Note: you'll need to bring shampoo and a bar of soap or purchase one at the desk. Also, if you walk to the Guesthouse from the Harpa Concert Hall, it is all uphill, but doable.

It was a great location - right by the church & bus stop 8. The front desk staff was so helpful with restaurant suggestions and even helped me find a luggage store when my lock went MIA. The rooms are bare bones, I kind of felt like I was back in my college dorm. Tiny bathroom, the sink was the size for an airplane bathroom. But, there were blackout shades, it was quite and there was homemade bread every morning at breakfast!

The property itself is well maintained and close to everything. Reykjavik is a small town, so we literally were 2-5 minutes away from everything: pick up stop, restaurants, the main shopping area. The room was great. The shared bathroom and shower were not a problem. The disappointment was the kitchen. It didn’t have a stove. I tried to go other kitchen, but it was always occupied.

Positives: The location of the hotel is ideal! It is essentially across the street from the Hallgrimskirkja church and thus much of downtown Reykjavik is easily accessible by foot. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Negatives: We were on the second and third floors and used a tiny spiral staircase each day. We only discovered near the end of our visit that there was a second more accessible staircase at the other end of the hotel. Perhaps the staff could have mentioned that?

Finding lodging in Iceland isn't easy on a budget. So when I saw this \"relatively\" low priced guesthouse, I must say I wasn't expecting much. What a great surprise it was! It couldn't have been any cleaner. No carpets anywhere (carpets in hotels are rarely fresh and clean). It was extremely quiet. There was a balcony. My friend and I were in a room with a shared bathroom and there were only 3 rooms sharing the bathroom. Walking out the front door the big church is just a block away and in full view. We didn't communicate often with the staff but when we did they were extremely pleasant, helpful and accommodating. Everything that we'd wanted to see and do was within 5-15 minutes walk, so perfect location. If I'm ever back in Reykjavik I'll definitely be staying here and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Our flight to Iceland was abruptly cancelled by the airline due to a storm. I phoned Guesthouse Sunna to inform them that it would be impossible for us to arrive and requested that to cancel the booking. They stated a two-day advance notice for cancellations and charged my card for one night without any consideration of the circumstances.

I am disappointed by Guesthouse Sunna. It seems their primary concern is financial rather than the well-being of their customers.

We stayed here for 1 night. The location was great, near many Reykjavik sights. The room was clean and comfortable. The only negative thing is the sulfur smelling water which is common in Iceland.

My sister and I very much enjoyed our stay here. It was across from a beautiful sculpture park, and the Hallgrimskirkja church! It was the perfect location to get all of the tour busses (bus stop 8). I would definitely recommend Guesthouse Sunna to anyone

Parking was hit and miss. Definitely missed a few times they could use a couple more spots. Don’t do the breakfast but we stayed with our 3 kids 10 and under. It was nice, clean and neighborhood is fantastic.

Cozy stay with great location

Loved staying at Sunna Guesthouse. It was very conveniently located a few steps from bus stop 8. I had a view of the cathedral, which was magnificent. So close to great streets for sightseeing, and brilliant and helpful staff. Very clean and quiet. Highly recommend.

We accidentally checked the \"poor\" box, when we meant to check \"excellent.\" DUH!

We stayed here for five nights and loved it. The staff was amazing—extremely pleasant and helpful, always taking time to answer our questions. We found one woman (the Manager, we think) to be so gracious and accommodating. For example, we asked for two extra pillows and they were delivered in 30 seconds!

Our room was on the ground floor, and it was so quiet and private and within a few feet of the free parking which was another asset provided by Sunna.

The beds were perfect, especially the down comforters. We couldn’t get the TV going but we never asked for assistance. After all, why watch TV when in Iceland??? It makes much more sense to roam the streets and pet the kitties of Reykjavik!

And there is not a better location: within a stone’s throw of the iconic Lutheran Cathedral and all the good shops and restaurants in the downtown area.

We’ll definitely be back!

The room is clean and self sufficient. Very convenient to walking to the city center.

It was a little tricky getting into the guest house because it was not clear that there are two buttons to access the door. After traveling for eighteen hours, we were not at our best and did not make the connection. Once we figured that out, it all made sense.

The guest house was easy to find - all you need to do is look up to find the large church and start walking up.

We appreciated being allowed to store gratis our 4 suitcases when we arrived @ 0900 but could not officially check in until 3 PM -- an elevator would have made getting the bags to & from our 3rd floor room easier.
Breakfast was good & reception staff helpful in several ways

Location was fabulous and I could walk everywhere. It was close to wonderful restaurants and shops as well as a bus stop. The room was spotless and the bedding of high quality. I had a lovely view, but was offered to be on a lower floor if stairs would be difficult. Glad I took the view room, which was very quiet.

The guesthouse was fine except for their water. It has a lot a sulfur in it and in my opinion is undrinkable and smells alot. So after you take a shower you smell like it! I wouldn't stay there again based on that.

Great stay at Sunna!

A group of 5 of us came to run in the Reykjavik Marathon and Sunna was spacious, clean, and comfortable with many amenities and a responsive desk staff. It is also in a great location where most of the restaurants and grocery stores were within walking distance. Would stay there again.

Small rooms and a shared bathroom but if you're just there to sleep when you're not out exploring Reykjavik it's pretty much perfect, the location is right smack in the middle of town, lots of things only a 5 minute walk away. Also close to camping and car rental spots. Easy check in check out process too.
