Radisson Blu 1919 Hotel, Reykjavik

A very good hotel to stay in in Reykjavik. Very very friendly and wonderful staff, seriously. The rooms were very nice and comfortable. The food at the breakfast buffet was delicious, not much variety but for me was very convenient as it had everything you need for breakfast. The location is perfect: close to some shopping areas, restaurants, and coffee shops. I strongly recommend this hotel to you if you are visiting the city.

Great location to many areas in the Reykjavik city. Next to the famous hot dogs! Many lovely breakfast spots nearby. 2 - 4 min walk to marina/waterfront. Lovely, helpful staff. We opted out of the breakfast, and chose to enjoy elsewhere. Beds and pillows are comfy. Small, convenient fridge for storage. Nicely decorative rooms. A really great stay.

Nice clean hotel located in center of town. Front desk personnel were very nice and helpful. Since this was my first time staying in a European hotel I was surprised there was no air conditioning. The hotel did provide a fan and it was sufficient enough to cool the room. Also there is a very nice deep soaking bathtub however since I am older it was very difficult for me to climb out without falling. Now that I’ve stayed there and no what to expect I would stay there again.

We are very pleased with our stay. We are very surprised that all employees were always helpful and smiling despite a lot of traffic and many questions. The location in the city centre was very good for exploring the city. Quite an expensive hotel, but there are no cheap places in Iceland, so we counted on the expense, but it was money well spent.

Great location but seriously lacking in other areas. Room was ok but no drawers, just a small wardrobe so really only suited to a short stay. We returned to our room at 5pm after a day out and it hadn't been made up or cleaned. A phone call to reception brought fresh towels & tea bags but disappointingly poor service. Cold selection at breakfast was ok but (not very) hot selection was poor. We were staying post cruise with Viking, the hotel failed to load our luggage onto the correct airport transfer bus. It eventually arrived at the airport after an hour and several frantic phone calls by the very helpful driver, but with only minutes to spare before check-in closed it wasn't a pleasant end to our stay in Reykjavik.

I read other reviews which indicated that street noise might be a problem at this hotel but that wasn't the case during our stay. What was a problem was the bathroom, more specifically the bathtub which, because of its incredibly high sill, was virtually impossible to use. As if that weren't bad enough, there was no grab bar and a very slippery floor. Very dangerous. The room was none too clean, either. The bed was ok. The buffet was adequate.

The hotel is perfectly located and an additional value on the plus side is the exceptional service that takes care of guests at every step. The rooms are spacious and clean, and the breakfast buffet is ok, come on, it could be a little more varied

We reserved a 2 bed and only got a 1 bed, but I'm still giving them a 5 star review because of how amazing the staff was. Everyone we interacted with was beyond friendly and genuinely seemed to want to help.
