Black Pearl

I recently stayed at Black Pearl Apartments, and it was pure luxury from start to finish. The staff were incredibly helpful and attentive, ensuring every aspect of my stay was perfect. One unique and delightful touch was the daily Yule Lads scrolls—a charming Christmas story left each night, adding a festive and cozy atmosphere to my stay. Additionally, I was touched by the thoughtful birthday present they left in my room, which made me feel truly special. Black Pearl Apartments exceeded all my expectations, and I can’t recommend them highly enough!

Great location in heart of city. Apartment was clean and well equipped. Plenty of pots/pans cutlery dishes etc. full size fridge/freezer which has a stocked mini bar (payable). Shower very good and quality toiletries. Bed comfortable but could probably do with some new pillows (small negative) we never tried the breakfast. First time in Iceland and loved it. The heating in the apartment was super warm (as is everywhere inside) I’d personally prefer the preset at 20oc and if anyone wants it higher they can increase as we found the preset of. 24-26oc too warm especially through the night. We repeatedly tried to decrease temp. Would return.

5 stars all around - location cannot be beaten and the staff and cleaning service are impeccable. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Only suggestion would be to improve the labeling of all the "smart" light switches as it took us nearly 4 days to figure them out.

We loved our stay here! We had everything we needed and used several of the amenities to cook meals which I loved being able to do! It was cozy and comfortable and very clean. The staff was friendly and helpful and we loved having a garage to park our rental. The location was easy to get to and was close enough to walk to several sights including the old harbor, Hallgrimskirka, The rainbow road, fun shops , great food, The Harpa, and the list goes on. They left us gifts from the Yulelads which was so charming and they even left me some chocolates and a lovely note since I was celebrating my birthday there. A wonderful and appreciated surprise that just added to the our whole stay! Will plan to stay again next time we visit!

Location, facilities, and service are all generally good. Would recommend it to other travelers. The specific room we stayed at had a few things broken: (a) lights under the kitchen cabinet; (b) soap holder of the dishwasher; (c) stove stopped to work after being used for 30 mins (looked like some gas supply issue).

Location fantastic. Apartment superb apart from some wear & tear that should be addressed with it being a 5*. Arrived early after a night flight and was asked to pay €250 for an early check in which we considered excessive and mean spirited, when all we wanted to do was sleep and with the room being ready. Didn’t sit well with us! Other than that, it was very good.

This was the perfect place for our girls trip. The rooms were extremely clean and modern with daily housekeeping and luxury tolietries and nespresso machine. We were able to use the penthouse that had room for 5 ladies which helped promote community and fun on the trip. The staff was friendly and accommodating and phoned us by request in the middle of the night for the Northern Lights! The location was perfect with very easy walking access to delicious food and drinks and a great view of Reykjavik from the balcony. I highly recommend Black Pearl! I can't wait to come back and stay here again.

Wonderful place to stay. Room was large and had a great balcony and all the kitchen amenities that you need. Staff was very polite and helpful. We really enjoyed our visit!
