This trip was everything I hoped it would be. Lisbet was very responsive to our numerous questions and clarifications. Patient and very clear. She accommodated all our requests with ease.

I left a glove behind on a tour and contacted KimKim. Immediate response! I highly recommend KimKim! read more

Hotel Review
We loved Hotel Island! Note - the pronunciation is “Iceland” or “eslanf”. Not I-land!
Location
We loved NOT being in the “tourist” section of Reykjavík!
Staff
Our staff recognized us and engaged us in authentic conversation.
Cleanliness & Comfort
Apparently we needed a ton of pillows. No problem! The beds were very comfortable.
