I loved everything about Freyja Guesthouse & Suites!
The property is quiet, warm, and comfortable. You will easily feel right at home.
It is a short walk from the central bus terminal as well as Hallgrimskirkja and surrounding shops.
The family who runs the place is super friendly, trustworthy, and helpful.
Next time I am in Reykjavik, I will be staying here again.

Cozy and convenient in downtown Reykjavik!
Very cozy guesthouse, centrally located and excellent hosts! The guesthouse has 2 floors of private rooms, ours had two comfortable beds and enough room for our luggage. Bathrooms and kitchens on each floor, but I really enjoyed the upper floor lounge for relaxing and feeling quite at home! Nice touch with the complementary smoothie in the morning!
