We absolutely loved our stay at this guesthouse! The owner is fantastic and took great care of us. Our room was upgraded to a spacious and fully equipped studio apartment. The location was perfect, with the BSI bus terminal and city center just a short walk away. This made it incredibly convenient for us to explore Reykjavik and take various tours. We enjoyed our time here and can't wait to come back!

We felt completely happy with our stay here, no complaints whatsoever.

I stayed at Guesthouse Galtafell for three nights during my visit to Reykjavik. The house owner family members, including their adorable puppy and kitty, were all incredibly friendly and helpful. The hotel's location was fantastic, just a short 5-8 minute walk from the main bus station. I loved being close to the main shopping street and the charming district of small houses. Despite the room being a bit small, it was spotlessly clean and the bed was huge and comfortable. The room also had a big flat TV with streaming capabilities and the option to make tea and coffee. The contact-free check-in process was convenient, and overall, the hotel offered excellent value for the price.

I can recommend this hotel.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel in a charming neighborhood. The room was spacious and had a living room and kitchen area with all the necessary amenities. The check-in process was easy with clear instructions on the front door, allowing us to arrive at any time. The hotel's location was perfect, as it was within walking distance to the city center, main shopping attractions, the park, and the nearest grocery store. The cleanliness of the hotel was impeccable, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel even provided a delicious breakfast, adding to the overall great experience.

Nothing, all excellent.

The room was spacious with nice windows and good blackout curtains. The bathroom was spacious with a heated towel railing and an excellent shower. The breakfast had a reasonable selection of vegetarian and vegan options. The staff were good and responsive to any questions or requests. The proximity to the main downtown area was fabulous, just a few minutes to be right in the heart of things.

Felt immediately at home, with the staff being friendly and accommodating.

Located close to downtown amenities, making it convenient to access everything in downtown Reykjavik. The converted servant quarters of the old Malta embassy offer a unique and historic setting. Although not directly connected to the main residence, the rooms provide privacy and quiet surroundings. The hostess is friendly and accommodating, offering a bottle of sparkling wine for special occasions.

The rooms in the building next to the main house were smaller and had a slight damp smell, contrary to the advertised photos of the main house.

Great location near shopping center, spacious rooms with private entrance, friendly and helpful staff, good breakfast, and the presence of a cat and dog for animal lovers.

Felt totally at home, no complaints.

This hotel is located in a lovely residential area, just a short walk from the downtown area. The rooms are basic but comfortable and very clean, with simple beds but all the necessary amenities such as a small kitchen. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the breakfast included was ample and delicious.

All was ok, no notable complaints.

The apartments were spacious, well-equipped, and comfortable. They offered good value for the price. The location of the guesthouse was great, as it was close to the center of town and easily accessible by car.

The guesthouse felt a bit dated and run down. The pictures of the rooms were misleading, as the rooms we stayed in were different from the ones shown.

We had a fantastic stay at this hidden gem in Reykjavik. The value for money was outstanding, with a lovely bed and beautifully updated bathroom. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the city center but in a quiet neighborhood. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and even set up Icelandic TV channels for us. Highly recommended!

The breakfast experience could have been improved with better organization and a more professional approach from the staff preparing it.

We stayed in a spacious one-bedroom apartment for a few nights. The apartment was clean with a bathtub, extra toilets, and a great location, just a 10-15 minute walk from the center. The staff was super helpful, providing friendly and easy-to-understand information for our late arrival. The room had a convenient outside entry and was quiet, with good blackout curtains. The breakfast offered a good selection of food served in a lovely setting. a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

100% Recommend this hotel.

We absolutely loved staying here! The location was perfect - nestled in a quiet residential area but still within easy walking distance of all the major sights. The service was impeccable, and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The room was spotlessly clean and had all the amenities we needed, including a flat-screen tv, electric kettle, and cookware/ kitchen utensils. We especially appreciated the lush garden area where we could relax and unwind after a long day of sightseeing.

We would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and luxurious stay in the heart of the city.

Beds were comfortable and made for a great night's sleep. The location was excellent, just a short walk to the main tourist attractions. Additionally, the staff were friendly and helpful, providing assistance when needed.

The room description and photos did not accurately represent the room we were given. The room was located outside the main building, down a narrow staircase, and felt cramped with barely enough space to move around.

Conveniently located near the city center and harbor. Spacious apartments with private entrances. Friendly pets add to the homey atmosphere. Easy check-in process with personalized instructions. Delicious and filling breakfast included.

The location is within walking distance of downtown, making it convenient for exploring the city. Being close to the BSI bus station is also a plus, especially for late arrival. The converted servant quarters of the old Malta embassy provide a unique atmosphere.

This guesthouse had an excellent location in Reykjavík, making it easy to explore on foot. The apartment we stayed in had a kitchen, which was great for saving money. The place was clean and had a peaceful garden. Check-in was straightforward and it was a nice place to rest after our flight and deal with jet lag. With its close proximity to the center, it was convenient for us to leave our rental car parked there. There was ample street parking available. The guesthouse had an older charm to it and the shared space was sufficient for four people. The beds were comfortable and clean towels were provided daily.

Felt just like home, with no reason to complain.
