Guest Reviews & Ratings
The hotel offers a comfortable stay, with spacious and clean rooms. The service is friendly and helpful, although some staff members could be more accommodating. The location is convenient for exploring the area by foot, but dining options could be more varied.
I found the hotel to be a cozy spot in the heart of everything you'd want to explore in Reykjavik. The rooms were a bit tight around the bed, but being tucked away in the corner meant a peaceful night's rest with no disturbances. It's Iceland, after all!
I found my stay at 22 Hill quite pleasant overall. The rooms were small but clean and peaceful, and the service was lovely and bubbly. The location was convenient, though a bit tiring uphill. The dining experience had its ups and downs, and some features were outdated, but for the most part, it was a decent value for money.
My stay at the hotel was cozy and convenient. The rooms were a little small but comfortable, and the tea, coffee, and water stations on every floor were a nice touch. The staff was friendly and always willing to help, even arranging a breakfast grab bag for our early departure. The location was great with good restaurants nearby, although a bit of a walk to the main street. The dining experience was simple but enough to start the day. Overall, a pleasant stay with minor inconveniences.
I loved the convenience of the hotel with lots of parking around and a beautiful view of the harbor from my room. The pictures of the hotel truly captured the essence of the location. The service was exceptionally nice and helpful, making my stay very pleasant. The location was perfect with easy access to the center of the city, although the ongoing construction nearby was a bit of a drawback. The dining experience was good, offering a nice variety of food options. Overall, a great value for money stay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and pleasant, but the shower situation varied. The service was top-notch and incredibly helpful, making our stay enjoyable. The location offered convenience without being too crowded. The dining options were simple but satisfying.
