Wish they had some signage so we would have known we were standing across the street when we asked a stranger if they knew where the place was. The shower was tiny and water flooded the floor no matter what we did to keep it from happening. Great location.

Wonderful location just off the center of the city. Comfortable and clean apartment. Felt very safe for a solo traveler. It was nice to have a fridge and microwave. I didn’t use the other appliances. Bed was comfy and shower was fantastic. Host communication was excellent. Convenient luggage storage if you get in early, or if you are leaving the city well after check out.

We were very happy with our stay at Castle House. Location was great apartment was fine, we would have liked the floors to be a little cleaner or for there to be a broom or vacuum cleaner left for us to tidy up.

Best Hotel in Reykjavik
I like this property a lot. Very close to downtown Reykjavik and felt very safe here. It got a small kitchen where I can cook my meals and nice big room and bathroom. Would love to stay here again if I go back to beautiful and magical Iceland 😘

Great communication and directions to the property. Apartment in excellent location and easily walkable to Reykjavik centre with its many shops, supermarkets and eateries. On street parking available nearby which is payable but plenty of spaces available.
Accommodation was as described and had everything we needed, serving as a great base from which to explore Iceland.

An okay apartment for a good vacation
Its a nice apartment in a perfect location but not a luxury apartment as they would call it but perfect for a city vacation. Very close to many of the places to see and close to the bus stops that will take you on the tours.
You are forced to keep the window open at all time so at times it can be quite chill.

Super comfortable, clean, and spacious. Only drawbacks were that the airport is very close meaning you hear and see large planes flying very low overhead. They don't fly late into the night or start very early though, so it didn't detract from our stay other than startling us the first time. We also had a couple issues with the keypad at the front entry, but we were still able to get in. Amazing location and very lovely stay overall though! And parking was very easy to find.

The apartment was clean and had plenty of room for two people. We found the location very good since we walked from the bus terminal and also walked around town a lot. We were concerned about luggage storage, but it was available. There is a phone for local calls and in case anything is needed from the property manager.

Great location near bus stops and restaurants and shopping streets. I needed information about where to leave luggage on our early arrival off a cruise ship. Email wasn’t replied to but luckily a resident was able to advise us to leave in the apartment lobby.

Quiet area in Reykjavik but in walking distance to the Rainbow Street area. 5 minutes from a grocery shop. The apartment had all the right amenities supplied in the kitchen - toaster microwave, fridge etc that helped us make dinners rather than go out every night. Comfy bed and secure system to enter the property. Very quick communication from the owner. A pleasant stay.

The apartment is well situated, with a nice view of the Pond. It has lots of litght, the kitchen is well equipped, the shower is good and the bed comfortable. The ability to leave luggage on-site prior to arrival or at departure was quite appreciated.
The reason for our 4 of 5 is the electronic key entry system that constantly troubled us, and no one on site to help us. We did not have SIM cards on our phones, so reaching the office was hard at first til we tried WhatsApp and they were only somewhat helpful. Confusing to us was the early instructions about how to engage the system at the storage location and different instructions at the front door. Had someone been there to run us through the system, our stay would have been less stressful.

Ultra practical option with everything you might need, except the shampoo and soap were like water. 9/10 overall for the price compared to what else is available. The place is cozy and spacious for 1 person. 2 people would comfortably fit and even stay for a longer duration due to the practicality of the property. The location is prime. 8 min drive to Grotta Lighthouse (northen lights viewing), and a vast majority of Reykjavik's top attractions within a 15 min walk.
