Eyja Guldsmeden Hotel, Reykjavík

We loved this hotel! It is beautiful. The decor is fabulous. I would definitely stay here again. The view of the waterfront from our room was amazing. We delighted in watching the boat traffic and seeing the mountains off in the distance. Thy do offer parking behind the hotel. The lounge was lovely. The staff was friendly and helpful. They do not include breakfast with the room but the cost did not seem unreasonable.

I am a kimkim staff member and stayed at this hotel for one night during my Iceland trip in March.
The Eyja hotel is a cozy and welcoming boutique hotel located just outside of the main city center of Reykjavik. The walking distance to the main shopping streets is about 5-10 minutes. It has an uphill location and offers views over the Sun Voyager and the sea.
A bigger supermarket can be found just behind the hotel with for Iceland reasonable prices.
The hotel has a balinese inspired style with lots of bamboo and wood items. The hotel rooms are a little bit on the smaller side but very comfortable. They are equipped with a kettle and instant coffee and tea, ironing facilities and a flat-screen TV with regional and some international channels. Bathrooms have a walk-in shower and free high-quality toiletries.
Breakfast is served every morning in buffet style. If it is not included in the room rate, it is worth paying for it (around 30 USD). A great choice of high-quality organic and local products is offered such as organic scrambled eggs, Icelandic salmon, butter, cheeses and Skyr as well as fresh bread, buns, pastries and fruits. If you feel brave enough, you can take a shot of Icelandic fish oil made from Cod.
A little fitness room can be found on the first floor. It is equipped with a rowing machine, a pull-up bar, a cable machine, free weights and some yoga matts. Everything is made from wood and working without any electricity.
The biggest bonus of the hotel is the free parking right in front. Parking spaces cannot be reserved, however there are plenty.
The staff is very friendly and attentive.

The location was great! The hotel was very comfortable and the decor was upscale and modern. We loved the lobby restaurant and bar area too.

Cute and comfortable with a very friendly staff. Its a little on the outskirts of the City, but aside from that, accommodation was great.

Our last night in Iceland we stayed at this hotel and didn't have a lot of exposure to internal services. First impressions ... the reception area is cramped (right next to dining), the access to elevators was somewhat impeded with construction / barrier. We did not eat dinner or breakfast here.

Great stay and service. Very friendly staff. Small rooms, but beautifully done up.

What a cute hotel! There was breakfast, and a restaurant on site. The rooms were darling and had very comfortable beds. The TVs are not smart tvs so you're limited to like 6 channels. There's a gym, and there's a Bonus grocery store right behind the hotel. Walking distance to a food hall, but it would be a pretty far walk to downtown where the shops and restaurants are.

Super cute hotel, comfy rooms and space, great breakfast. Walking distance to great locations!

Beautiful rooms, exemplary breakfast! A little bit of a walk from shopping but worth it!

Unique hotel. The rooms and beds were very comfortable. Breakfast had great options and the bar/lounge was open late. It doesn’t have a view of Reykjavik or the harbor but it’s a short walk to the harbor.

This hotel had the best blackout shades, we all got a great night’s sleep.
