On a tight budget with a 1 night layover in Iceland, we needed a clean, safe guest room and got that plus a wonderful staff. BUT, isolated in a mostly industrial area with a 1.4 mile hike to the nearest Flybus stop for airport transfers, because of the icy winter conditions, we opted for a taxi with a costly cab fare. I would think if we had more time to explore and a rental car 9which we cancelled given concerns over the recent seizmic and volcanic activity, and unfamiliar roads) I'm sure we would have been fine. We did get to use to Reebok facility next door for free and it was wonderful, uncrowded and great for the fitness minded.

Wife and I were staying in room 429. We had the most painful toilet seat we have ever experienced. It left marks on our thighs and butts in just a few minutes and it painfully stayed for a long time after. I’m not sure if all the rooms have the same type of toilet seat, but ours was very sharp edged. We also attempted to use the kettle that was in the room. We checked it and put water in it, to clean out the kettle before use. We were so lucky we did that because this insect came out with it, into the sink. I’m not familiar with the insects here but it looked like a bed bug the size of a US dime. Needless to say, we did not use that kettle again.

Great stay! Saw the northern lights
Great hotel! We enjoyed our stay here while visiting Iceland. Breakfast was very convenient and nice to get an early start on our day. The staff was nice when we had questions. We loved our room, very spacious with blackout curtains. My one complaint was the comforter for our double bed was just two twin comforters. Otherwise we loved the hotel and even saw the northern lights from it!

We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Vellir. It’s not far from the Keflavik airport and you can get into the centre of Reykjavik by car. We were upgraded on arrival so had a room with windows along both sides which was a nice surprise. Our thoughts: - Room was stylish, comfortable and clean. - Towels were very small. - Blackout curtains in the room were great. - Breakfast was the same everyday (cold continental buffet plus DIY waffles). - Staff were generally helpful and friendly. Our added bonus was that we saw the Northern Lights from the hotel room one night!
