Alva Hotel

Overall I love this place, but…I thought it was really inhospitable to receive an email asking what time I would check out. As in during my trip you ask me to stop what I’m doing to let you know when I’m checking out? It gave me a negative vibe.

Interesting concept- no staff. Totally self check in and out. We didn’t need anything so it worked smoothly but if you did need something it would be interesting how they provide service. Left our luggage in their luggage storage room while we went on a 4 day hike and everything was safe and secure.

The room was very nice and modern, which I liked. Also the unique access into the building and the room was a nice feature to use while staying! Will consider another stay while visiting Iceland in the near future!

Fixtures and design look good in pictures and the first 10 seconds stepping into the room looked very impressive. However things started showing after 30 mins in. Mold growing around the bathroom ceiling exhaust, bathroom counter is warped from water damage, faucet is not firmly attached to counter, kettle had nasty goopy slime inside it (probably from the previous occupant?), some USB outlets in the wall plug are non functional. It seems like this property was recently purchased and in the process of renovation. The owners put in some high end hardware into the rooms which I appreciate. They opened up some rooms that were completed to get revenue. The lobby looks like it is in the middle of construction to add a dining area (I didn’t mind that part) They just need to maintain the finished rooms that were used for operations and this would have been a good hotel. As it currently stands the 2 star is a fair rating

Nice hotel, 2 miles from downtown

Clean and modern hotel In the city of REYKAVIK Very safe and clean Highly recommend

super clean, and I did not have any issues during my stay. I highly recommend it, but I paid a lot compared to other places.

The room was nice, and clean.

Good hotel. No staff was present at reception. A bit far from downtown, but transport is close by.

Parking lot is full but Hotel is excellent
