- Tsveta (9/5): -
- Graham (10/5): Great location, well fitted out and maintained. Will book again for next year. - Close to everywhere, short walk to Rainbow Street, 5 minutes to Harpa, 2 minutes to Lebowski -if you know you know- short taxi ride from Flybus terminal. 15-20 minute walk to Perlan and Valur football stadium. Both well worth the walk Nothing!
- ntrupkova (9/5): - - -
- Keri (9/5): comfortable and convenient to everything in Reykjjavik - clean and well maintained and convenient, bathroom was great no parking

- Karin (10/5): Super Lage, nett ei gerichtet! - Die Lage ist toll! Man ist sofort bei der Regenbogenstraße, bei der Konzerthalle Harpa, im Hinterhof der Laugavegur-Straße. Meine Kollegin meinte, die Matratze der Couch sei etwas durchgelegen. Die Betten waren in Ordnung.
- Julie (7/5): Though we liked the location, not our favorite stay. - Though a great location, the access was very challenged. The directions were not clear so entry into a key coded system was very challenging indeed. We apartment was as well appointed as we needed. Better directions for entry, more than one pillow per bed. Optional bedding to allow for the sleeper couch to be used. No one to help directly--everything was through chat making it more difficult.
- Taušová (9/5): - Lokalita v centru
Uklizeno a pohodlné
Vše funkční a splnilo očekávání
Pračka se sušením je výhodou - zvlášť v zimě Po 22:00 je v okolí vnitrobloku hlučno, z okolních baru chodilo spoustu lidi kouřit právě sem. Cigarety i trávu. Dílny hluk od opilých lidí.

- Tina (8/5): Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen und würden wiederkommen. - Sehr gute und zentrale Lage. Genug Platz für vier Personen, separates Schlafzimmer mit großem Doppelbett und Schlafsofa, wo auch zwei Personen drauf schlafen könnten. Das Bad ist großgeräumig und neu. Die Küche funktional und bei den Minusgraden draußen war die Wohnung stets gut gewärmt. Wir haben den Aufenthalt genossen. Wir haben den Vermieter nicht kennen gelernt, aber wenn wir ihn kontaktiert haben, haben wir direkt eine Antwort bekommen. Schön wäre noch gewesen: eine Dunstabzugshaube über den beiden Herdplatten, Wäscheklammern für den Wäscheständer und dass das Glatteis im Hof einen kleinen, gestreuten Weg zum Laufen hätte.

- Renee (9/5): This property was great for what we needed it for. Close to bus stop for tours and great food shopping nearby. - Great location Not able to smoke on the balcony.
- Andreas (10/5): - Allt var mycket bra. Vi är väldigt nöjda med detta boende.
- Steven (8/5): Nice spacious apartment with great outlook - Great location All good. Codes to get in were a bit tricky on arrival

- Anthony (9/5): Overall, it was a great place to stay with an awesome location. - The condo was very clean. We didn't have a car so we didn't use the parking. I was very impressed with all the amenities that the condo offered. The door handle to the bathroom came off.
- Ersilia (10/5): - Carinissimo , attrezzato e in un ottimo punto ,vicino a al centro e a solo 15/20 minuti dal stazione bus. Tutto ok
- Yokoyama (9/5): とても便利で快適。 - ポットやカトラリーも含めて清潔。 繁華街の近くだからか夜まで賑やか。
- jane (10/5): -
- agnes (10/5): Pied à terre idéal pour visiter Reykjavik - La situation idéale au centre de Reykjavik, les équipements disponibles ds la cuisine, le chauffage réglable, le confort des lits, la propreté, le café et thé offert.. Il serait bien de mettre à disposition un petit kit des indispensables pour cuisiner : huile, sel épices.
- Petek (9/5): -
- Kay (7/5): Had a great stay - Iceland was fab but no Northern Lights 🙃 - Quiet and in a great location To get into the property the door code was the same as the door code for our apartment so did the other apartments have the same code - didn’t seem secure - need bigger drinking glasses!
- YI FANG (8/5): - 離市區很近!空間足夠大。離bus stop#6及彩虹街很近。 如果有許多行李,需要花點力氣搬運通過一小小段石子路,幸好我們住宿在一樓,不用再搬上樓梯。
- Moira (9/5): -
- Linn (8/5): Super leilighet midt i Reykjavik sentrum - Utmerket beliggenhet, kan ikke få det mer sentralt. Og meget praktisk med parkeringshus nesten vegg i vegg som hadde lave priser for leiebilen vår. Gode senger. Savnet mer servise og kjøkkenutstyr. Ikke nok glass, tallerkner, bestikk o.l. Hadde også vært greit med stekeovn.
Litt mye støy fra festing i naboleiligheter og området rundt i helgen.
- Bert (9/5): -
- juha (5/5): Refrigerator not working - The location is great and the apartment was clean. The refrigerator and the kettle were not working. We had to put our food outside on the balcony to keep it cold. The next day, a cleaner had thrown our food away from the balcony. This was completely incomprehensible behavior, and we were not even given an apology for it.
- Deborah (10/5): - Absolutely excellent location. Right in the centre of Reykjavik beside rainbow street. Very straightforward check in with codes instead of keys. Lovely warm cosy rooms, fabulous shower. Would absolutely come back We couldnt get the hob working to make some breakfast (it was on a lock that would not come off) I emailed and never got a response. It didnt impact us greatly as it was eggs so we used the microwave, and we ate out for lunch and dinner, but with the cost of eating out in Iceland, and if it was a family with children etc Im sure it would have been an issue. And I couldnt realistically rate the staff as we never met any. Again not a big deal but only conversation I had was via email (regarding hob) and didnt get a response
- Janne (8/5): - Dejlig central beliggenhed. Gode senge og stort badeværelse. Ingen udsigt fra kælderlejæigheden. Og ingen emhætte. Kunne godt bruge et par tekrus og mere bestik. Hovedpuden var hård.
- Artur (9/5): -
- Naomi Diamond (9/5): Excellent self catering option for small families - Great location and really easy self check-in and checkout We struggled to get the second tv to work, and there is no luggage storage option which made things a bit tricky due to our flight timings
- Rebecca (9/5): -
- Arkadiusz (7/5): - Location in the heart of Reykjavik, parking nearby Irritating light sensor in the bathroom, need some refreshment, check out hour is too early
- Luoyi (8/5): - Central location, easy access to shopping street and bus stops!
- David (10/5): Spacious comfortable apartment. - Wonderful apartment right in the center of Reykjavik easy walking distance to everything in town including bars, restaurants, museums, grocery stores and also conveniently bus stop 6 which connects to the main bus station for trips, airport bus etc. Although apartment was very relaxed and quiet despite its location. Apartment big and clean, good shower and heating for the cold Icelandic January. Even provided a toaster on request, could not be more helpful. Would recommend city and apartment.

- Singhal (8/5): -
- YUMEI (7/5): 很棒的住宿地點 - 距離購物街、彩虹街、及bus stop 6很近。位置鬧中取靜。住起來舒適乾淨。 門口有點髒亂。
沒有烤箱可以使用。
預定3人入住,但只準備2人用物。
- Rhiannon (7/5): Very enjoyable - Comfy and great location Netflix not connected to tv, no toaster
- Louise (8/5): Comfortable and close to everything - Cosy, comfortable & clean. The team at Heimaleiga were extremely efficient. The apartment looks out on a courtyard that should be spruced up. The price of the great central location is of course a bit more noise. Despite this I would stay at Ice Apartments again.
- YAN (9/5): Great location - Great location, close to bus stop 6
laundry is really convenient (wash and dry mode) especially for people who come back from south coast tour
- Quinn (10/5): Great location and facilities. I’d stay again. - Great location, neat and tidy with good kitchen facilities Couldn’t get the tv to work but also didn’t contact anyone to ask, so might have been a simple fix. Not a big problem for us. Bathroom light took a little while to work out - switch is underneath the sensor.

- Kornelia (8/5): -
- John (10/5): Excellent location in the heart of Reykjavik. - Ice Apartments are in the heart of Reykjavik very near the bottom of the "Rainbow Street" Parking is available at the Traðarkot - Parking House. the TV's were slow to respond to controls and their WiFi signal kept going in and out.
- Tina (10/5): - Spent 5 days here. It's beautiful
Lovely and clean
It's really warm and cosy
Everything you need for a self-catering break
Close to town just a few minutes walk away
Nice and private
Beds comfortable.
Secure
Lovely big shower room
Great communication with the owner
We arrived early, and we left our luggage under the stairs for a few hours ... Nothing it was amazing
- Renzo (9/5): Great place, super good location - Great Location No parking included but was relatively easy to find a please with the app suggested by the host
- Tzu Hao (8/5): 整體來說不錯,舒適 - 離bus stop6兩分鐘路程,附近的站點也都很近,房間空間很夠,設備基本齊全 電磁爐火力不足,煮東西稍嫌不方便。
自助check in系統,雖然回覆算即時
建築不是很好找,建議提前問客服怎麼走。
- Marko (10/5): - Really clean and nice!
- Joelle (10/5): Recommended Stay at the Heart of Reykjavik - The apartment had all the essentials. It's perfectly located at the heart of Reykjavik. Easy access to bus stops for tours outside of the city centre. The bathroom was generous in space. The beds were comfortable. The washing machine was a lifesaver. Security-wise, would consider rethinking access to property.
- WEI (10/5): 非常棒的一次体验 - 位置,设施 都挺好的
- Andrea (8/5): - Spacious, clean great location
- Aikaterini (10/5): Great location, comfortable apartment - Convenient & as described. Comfortable bed and all the facilities for a comfortable stay
- Damien (9/5): -
- Yee wa (8/5): - It’s very comfortable and convenient that close to the downtown The bathroom is a motion sensor light and I need to always wave my hands to keep the light on
- Cloe (9/5): Allotjament maco, acollidor i cèntric - Cuina ben equipada, habitació i saló grans, lavabo còmode i accés ràpid. Tele enorme al saló, tot i que no la vam fer servir. Potser aniria bé un petit moble al saló perquè la persona que dorm allà tingui on guardar les coses.
Situat al final de l'arc de Sant Martí, al bellmig del centre. A millorar la neteja de la pica (dins del forat de sota l'aixeta), les cadires i taula de la terrassa, així com el plat amb cigarrets de la terrassa.
- Kenny (6/5): -
- Rowland (10/5): Location, location, location! - Location was perfect!. Other reviewers complained about noise, but we had absolutely no issues. We didn't speak to a single person with regards to check-in. The check-in process is thoroughly thought out and concise that there was no reason for any interaction. Apartment was big with every amenity. Not necessarily apartment specific but parking is a bit confusing. Read up on this and download the Parka app as every place charges for parking. There is a parking garage next door but they do close between midnight and 0700...never an issue unless you have an early flight. Apartment needs a few small repairs here and there but nothing major. Highly recommend!!
- Sylvia (10/5): für Reykjavik City perfekt - Zetrale Lage
Größe des Appartements
Waschmaschine im Innenhof ziemliche Unordnung
- Kate-Lynn (2/5): - Didnt like that there was no second lock on the door, a chain lock would go along way especially since my door code worked for all doors i tried, which is very concering. Bathroom door handle was falling off, door didnt fit properly had to use whole body to close / open it. Every morning at about 7am someone would open and close the exterior door allowing it to slam shut waking us up every damn time. For being a luxurious place, the bathroom smelt like pee when we got there. Only good thing was communication for check in / checkout, was very easy.
- Michael (10/5): - Super location, steps away from Rainbow Road and all the Reykjavik has to offer.
- Andreas (7/5): -
- Sophie (10/5): Short layover in KEF - The apartement was spacious, gave us plenty of room to move around , pack and unpack our bags
and the kitchen is really an added bonus !
- Charmaine (8/5): - Location is great. No elevators, it was difficult carrying luggage. The washer was not intuitive to use and no easy instructions even with the email they sent on property rules.
- Marjorie (10/5): - Great location. Clean, convenient and well provisioned. We were able to make dinner for an evening in.
- Claudia (8/5): Optimal - Wohnung Kücheneinrichtung könnte mehr auf 2 Personen ausgerichtet sein.
- Wilson (10/5): - Perfect location for everything, good for restaurants, bars, and area attractions. A bit noisy on weekend nights due to access to the main area. Will stay again due accessibility.
- Emma (9/5): It was perfect for us, we really loved our stay. - We loved the location, kitchen equipment was perfect for small meals, washing machine including liquid which was handy. It could have been better maintained. Bathroom grouting could of benefited from a deep clean. There was some chipped woodwork to the door.
- Susan (8/5): Would stay here again. - Location was fantastic. A very central location, easy to walk everywhere. Plenty of space in the apartment. Clean and comfortable. Not much storage/shelf space in bathroom. Downside of being in central location is hearing the partiers all night long.
- Lauren (8/5): God apartment, great location - Great location at the junction of Rainbow Road and Laugevegur Street. Ample room with well appointed kitchen. Shower was roomy and they had cabinets to store clothes. It is located near a bar but I didn't hear much noise. The only loud ruckus I heard late at night were some drunk folks walking through the alley. Finding the correct outside door was confusing. Note there are two outside entrances on the same side of the building for 1 and 1b. The apartment was great but it was pretty costly. Though everything in Reykjavik is costly so in that sense it's a competitive price.
- Michael (7/5): -
- Gary (9/5): - Location!!! Too warm. We were unable for control the temperature.
- Bradford (8/5): Nice Apartment in Poor Immediate Surroundings - Nicely designed unit well located yet quietly tucked away from the main drag. There were a few minor issues like a broken shade pull, empty or broken shower dispenser (random other bottled products were either provided or left behind by other guests) and a bathroom light that repeatedly turns off during the course of showering, requiring nearly stepping out repeatedly in complete darkness to activate the motion sensor/light activator (our particular sensor did not feature the on/off/auto switch on the bottom described in the online apartment guide). The biggest issue is the condition of the building’s surroundings and approach to the unit, which gives a really poor impression upon first arrival – lots of trash, random pots and other items in poor condition, weeds, and many rocks across the stairway (looks like years of accumulation) which you must navigate carefully to avoiding slipping on for a bad fall! In addition, the common trash bins are quite nasty and nearby graffiti and other negatives give an unsafe impression. One guest was overheard saying he hoped their car was still there in the morning.
- Imee (8/5): - Great location!!!!! Nothing major but we opted for a late check out but they deactivated the code to the apartment at the original check out time. We were a little stressed since we couldn’t go inside the apartment to finish packing. It was stressful at that moment but it all worked out. Appreciate the quick response to our issue.
- Gabriella (9/5): -
- Koh (8/5): -
- Nilvia (9/5): Bellissima esperienza - Appartamento ben curato nei dettagli dí design Poco rifornito di attrezzi da cucina
- Hemav (7/5): Great location. Pricey. Difficult to park - The location and the amenities The unresponsive nature of the staff. We stayed 3 nights and could not get fresh towels or extra pillows
- Lisa (7/5): - Location was amazing Staff was unresponsive and not helpful. Requests for linens went unmet.
- Jeanette (8/5): - The location was wonderful. The apartment was very comfortable and clean. I would stay there again.
- Helen Louise (10/5): - Amazing location. Can walk to all main Reykjavík attractions 20 minutes. Restaurants and shops on doorstep. Parking relatively easy to find.
Main frustration was the outside noise on Friday and Saturday nights, and the auto light switch off in bathroom. Very hard to shower and without light turning off multiple times.
- Timothy (10/5): Very comfortable three night stay . Would definitely rebook. - Location was superb. Well equipped. Very clean Furnishings were a bit worn. The bathroom light was triggered by a motion sensor , so it kept turning off. Door code a bit tricky. Pressing the star key reset it.
- massimo (10/5): -
- Adnan (10/5): - Location, cleanliness, and facilities are all perfect.
Near lots of 24/7 super markets.
- scott (5/5): Overpriced at over promised - The location was in an alley, and the views were of the garbage and skyline, but definitely not as advertised. It was also very hard to find because it was located in the alley behind the other buildings and not on the street.
- Janine (10/5): Vielen Dank, es war klasse. - Ausstattung ,modern, zentral, alles fußläufig erreichbar. Für mehrere Nächte sehr gut, wenn man sich mit den Freunden / Familie versteht, die auf der Couch im selben Zimmer schlafen. Der Hinterhof
