Great hotel and compared to other hotels I researched before booking, I thought it good value for money. Breakfast was fairly basic but more than ample and there was plenty of food available. The hotel and the room was very clean and modern. Reception staff were helpful, especially when trying to arrange our return back to the airport. Perhaps the best thing was just how close bus stop 12 is! With all the trips we had booked plus the airport transfers, it was really convenient to have the stop literally on the door step! All the trips we went on had the option of being collected or dropped off there. It also appeared to be the bus stop that was first on the pick up list for our tour buses (meaning we didn’t have to wait long at all in -15C for the bus to arrive during the half an hour time frame they ask you to wait). For our three trips, bus stop 12 was also the first drop off point so we didn’t have to sit on the bus going to all the other drop off points after the tours had finished. Photo I’ve included shows where the bus stop is and the front of the hotel. There are plenty of eateries near by, which you can get to on foot.

Staff were friendly and efficient, especially when I arrived at the hotel with the wrong suitcase; and they helped me with online check-in for my return flight; they were excellent. My room and bathroom were very tidy and spotlessly clean. I also liked the provision of coffee and Icelandic doughnuts for travellers departing before breakfast; I didn't have coffee but I ate a doughnut. Breakfast was very good.

We arrived at the Storm from the airport around 2am and the check in was open with a warm welcome from the staff. We stayed 2 nights before starting our tour around Iceland. It is in quite a good location to explore Reykjavic, but with a bit of a walk to the old centre. The breakfast was good, with some hot options. The room was clean and comfortable, the staff very helpful and professional.

All staff we met - reception, breakfast, cleaners - all were super nice and helpful. We checked out before 4am to catch our flight which meant we couldn’t have breakfast and at the time of checking out we were pointed to the table where coffee and warm croissants were waiting for us - that was so kind. The hotel is environmentally friendly. Location - close to the city center and just next to the bus stop 12 - one of the pick up points for the tours and for the airport transfer. If we get back to Reykjavik, we will get back to this hotel.

Breakfast was extraordinary. Fresh vegetables, fruits and bakeries each morning. Not any plate were empty, they were quickly refilled. The staff were always kind and helpful. The location couldn't be better, there was the bus stop #12 right in front of the hotel which is a common pick-up place for various tours. We pretty much loved the scent of the shower gel/shampoo.

Very clean and contemporary style hotel. Brilliant breakfast and staff. Very quiet, no street noise and very comfortable beds. In an area that has restaurants and shops but you do need to walk 15-20 minutes to city centre attractions. The area around the hotel is undergoing refurbishment (not disturbing your stay) so I imagine soon it will have a lovely pedestrian area.

My son and I had adjacent rooms on the 3rd floor and were both very comfortable. The rooms were quiet and super warm (the heating easily controlled on the radiators if we got too warm). The hotel is conveniently located about a 20 minute walk from the city centre and the no. 12 bus stop right is right outside (this is where many of the tours begin and is a main stop for airport drop off). Breakfast was really good - a lot of choice (including delicious scrambled eggs, bacon, fruit, yoghurt, cold meats, pastries etc), and well topped up no matter what time we had it. Covid precautions were good - the hotel was spotless throughout, staff and guests wore masks at all times and breakfast was booked in slots to avoid overcrowding. The staff were always friendly and allowed us to leave our bags on the last day between checking out and getting the airport transfer.

Friendly staff (The staff at their sister branch Skuggi hotel was also wonderful) They always had a tchat with me, which I found really nice. The first double room I booked was too noisy due to the wind, I asked to change, while they were super busy in December, they accepted to do it. The location, in front of the stop 12 is perfect for the excursions. Nice double rooms, well equipped with tea and kettle and super clean. Would definitely recommend this hotel
