Castle House Luxury Apartments

3.0 star property

"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. "

"Very friendly staff and helpful with suggestions for things to do in and outside town. Rooms are quite nice with comfortable mattresses wonderful bathrooms with high pressure hot water available. The fact that the rooms are right in the middle of the downtown area made for easy access to everything. Three downsides. 1. The buildings for the rooms are scattered around about a km radius from the main city center. But, the lobby is also in a completely different location. Even though...

"A fantastic hotel to stay in. It doesn't look much from the outside, in fact when we visited the space directly out the front looks like a building site. Don't let that put you off, the inside is lovely. Staff were very helpful, breakfast was fantastic, and the location is perfect for exploring all the amazing things the city has to offer. "

"Great location right in the prime shopping and dining area and a short walk to many attractions. Clean space with comfortable beds and nicely furnished kitchen. It is a little loud if you are in the front units because the street it is on is in such a prime location. It is loud until 1am or later. They must know this because they left us ear plugs which were a godsend. "

"Good: location is pretty excellent Bad: communication could’ve been better. We have to wait the next for a message. And no one answer right away when we call. Our living room heater is broken (told them when we arrive) they send someone to check two days after and the guy said he’ll come back and he never did. We used the dish washer and soaked the kitchen because the water wasn’t draining properly (no one came to check after letting them know). Our garbage supposed to be pick up every two days...
