Highly recommend; good value
Location is excellent. Near shopping, restaurants, transportation, and waterfront. Breakfast is a highlight with broad spectrum of offerings…meats, cheeses, juices, coffees, pastries, fruits, cereals, etc. The skyr was particularly good. The room is clean, efficient and very comfortable. Cleaning is at the occupants option when needed. Pleasant staff.

Fosshotel Baron - A Reykjavik Bargain
Fosshotel Baron is fine for a reasonably priced stay in Reykjavik. It was clean, the staff was pleasant and helpful. They do not have a restaurant but do serve (self service) a good hot and cold breakfast. They are not far from restaurants - within less than 15 minute walk. The fancier restaurants are farther downtown. My room was very simple. There is a flat-screen tv, coffee maker and a hair dryer. The bathroom was interesting - supplied with a squeegee which I wondered about at first. The shower is not separated and the floor wasn't slanted toward the drain so nearly half the bathroom floor gets wet. Really wet.They need to put some kind of short barrier in. For a traveler like myself who doesn't require a great deal of amenities, the hotel was fine. I do wish they had a restaurant.

This hotel is definitely no frills. The breakfast was perfect for a hotel breakfast buffet. There were plenty of choices to satisfy all tastes. The location is currently surrounded by construction which may deter some visitors. It was walkable to the main shopping district and tourist attractions. The bed was comfortable. Lots of space to store clothing and suitcases. There were several outlets in the room to charge and use my devices. The facilities are old and dated but sufficient for our 4 night stay. The shower was quite the experience! It was tiny and hard to get our of the shower stream to lather up. It literally flooded the whole bathroom floor until I figured out to only pull the shower current over one side and leave the side closest to the floor drain open.
