Fosshotel Barón

The hotel was clean and close to all the sites. We enjoyed the two-bedroom suite for our family.

We weren’t real sure what to expect but were pleasantly surprised. The double room was plenty big for 2 of us. The bathroom was good sized but the sink was tiny and with very little space to “ put” things. Clean. View was great of the harbor but room hot at night even with the windows open and noisy. Men talking loudly outside at 3:00 am was not conducive to a good night’s rest. The breakfast is well worth it! It was a good place for a couple of nights and convenient to much in Reykjavík.

Hotel was average. The lobby is small and the hotel feels dated. The room was ok, had a queen size bed and 2 twin beds, small table and chairs. Bathroom was small, water was extremely hot. Blackout curtains let in a lot of light. Location was ok. Close to the waterfront and walking path. Different than being in the downtown city center. Just depends what you are looking for. Front desk did not explain parking situation very well which made it confusing. There is a "check in" screen that you put your license plate number in and that registers your car. And then you pay at the machine outside. But you need to put the license plate number in everytime you park your car. After being in Iceland, i now understand their parking. But this was our first day/night in country with no sleep and the staff didn't explain it.

A typical big city hotel; wasn’t that impressed.

One of the main reasons we picked this property was its location which is wonderful. It is within easy walking distance of the harbor and lots of shopping. It is an older hotel with limited parking. We were lucky to get a spot in the lot. The fire alarm going off at 7:40 am was an unpleasant shock. The elevator was out of service the second and third days we were there. It was a bit of a challenge lugging suitcases down 3 flights of stairs but I was thankful not to be lugging them up 5 as I am sure some guests had to do.

Property was convenient but in a noisy area. Some noise was probably nearby construction but alot of highway /street noise. Staff were very friendly. No dining facilities but breakfast is offered as extra.There was a fire alarm at about 7.20 am. Due to fire in ground floor kitchen.!! Noisy room doors due to old outdated lock/ latch system. Overall hotel was noisy and dated.

Great location! Grocery store right behind hotel which is convenient. Hot water does have a strong sulfur smell, if you are not used to that. You will pay for parking, as the hotel does not own the parking lot, and there are not a lot of spaces available, which can be an issue in the evenings. Beds were comfortable though and room was clean. Bring your sleeping mask in summer, the curtains are not black out ones. Hope this helps!

This property was tired, bathroom outdated, no hair dryer and parking was very expensive. I would not stay here again

Everything was nice for our stay

Everybody was so helpful and friendly.
