The hotel was in a very good location. However, very noisy because it’s on a square where there are a lot of bars. We had to have our windows open since there was no air-conditioning. Room was a good size, good amenities, just don’t air-conditioning!!!

The location of the Apotek is wonderful but the room was not great. The room was lava hot until we realized the mini-fridge was the cause and unplugged it. After that the room temperature was fine. It was a quite small room which was challenging for us to work with given there were not easy places to put clothes so we had to work with our suitcases. Finally, the bathroom was in great condition and really clean and modern but the open shower got water all over the room which was less than ideal. We tried the breakfast one day but were disappointed in its quality and it was quite expensive. The staff at the desk were very nice and the room and entire property was very clean.

Breakfast was great everyday and good selection. The room was clean and very nice, for our 8 day stay it was perfect. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My only complaint was that the laundry service was not complimentary and it seemed as though it would be. There was no price listed and no one mentioned there was a fee. Assuming it was free was my own fault, but having booked a suite and the things which werent complimentary had a listed fee. That said, the laundry service fee was unbelievably high. The three loads we sent out were over $550 USD!

Other than this, our stay was amazing.

The staff was attentive and the hotel was clean as was the room and bathroom. It is at a great location within walking distance from bus stops and shopping and some of the important sightseeing locations. The breakfast spread is really good and the hotel’s restaurant food is simply amazing.

The reason I can’t give a 5 because the room itself was small though, we had a double twin-bed room, there was one small closet and a small table and there was barely any space to move. Also, we reached early and asked about checkin - they immediately said the room was ready but we would be charged €50 for early checkin which we thought was odd, as if they were prepared to gouge tourists.

I wish we had more time at this charming place. We disembarked from our cruise. The front desk personnel stored our luggage so that we could explore the area since our room wasn't available. When we returned, our luggage had already been placed in our room.

The room was very clean. The hotel was in the perfect location to walk to many of the sights we wanted to hit. It was a nice 'base' to go to each time we ventured out. Just wish we could've stayed a little longer (we checked out at 5:15 a.m. to catch our flight).

If ever we return, we would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend.

If you are too hot and have to open the windows, the noise from outside is unbearable. Also, the black night lights by the bed cannot be turned off. You have basically have to remove your card that control the electrical power of the room in order to shut them off. If you do so, none of the electrical outlets in the room will work and whatever you planned to charge over night (e.g. phone, headphones, etc.) will not be charged.

Apotek Hotel is conveniently located in the downtown area of Reykjavik. The entire staff is completely amazing; they provided helpful information regarding the sites, transportation and parking (there isn't any parking on-site).
I chose the single room and was taken a bit off-guard by the small size of the room, given that the price was somewhat high. Though the shower was more than adequate (spectacular, really), the bed was situated directly next to the window and the drapes. The issue is that when sleeping, if you are a person who does not lay still while sleeping, you encounter the very real possibility of rolling against the drapes. During the spring and summer months, when the sun chooses to not actually go down at all, that is certainly problematic. I woke myself up a few times because the drapes happened to part slightly and the oh-so-bright sunlight (even at 0200) was not so kind to my sleeping self.
I did dine at the hotel restaurant for dinner one night, and the staff there was also quite spectacular.
Overall, this hotel is fantastic, with the only real issue being the proximity of the bed to the drapes.

Room was slightly on the small side but was clean and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was updated and really nice, but the setup and lack of ventilation makes the entire room so damp after a shower. Fan wasn’t working in ours. Location is convenient - close to attractions, shopping, dining, and bus stop for pick-up. Because of proximity to bars, it can get loud even past midnight. Breakfast buffet was so-so. Highly recommend the restaurant outside of the buffet. We tried their platters and sampled some tasty icelandic cuisine.
