Vaktahouse, hotel in Álftanes

Featuring a free car rental during your stay, this self-catering holiday home is located in central Reykjavik and just a few minutes' walk from Reykjavik City Hall and Tjörnin Lake.

If you’re thinking of visiting Reykjavík and looking for a place to stay, look no further: Vakta was amazing and the host, Margrét, was even better! We took our family of 4 on a quick 4.5 day trip to Iceland, because our boys wanted to see the northern lights. Originally, I tried booking a hotel for my wife and I, and our 2 boys(7 and 5). Every hotel we looked at was too small and could accommodate the 4 of us in one room so we decided on an air bnb. That’s when I came across Vakta and we couldn’t have been happier with our decision. First of all, the house is so cozy, and wonderfully decorated with unique 1 of a kind items that made the historic house feel even more special. Margrét made sure we had everything we needed. We were walking distance to everything(food, shopping, museums, drinks, sightseeing, bus stops) and Margrét had a car for us to use to explore and hunt for the lights. Our boys loved the sleeping arrangements in the lofts and couldn’t wait to lay down every night. Margrét was easy to get in touch with and also helped us with any questions we had. If we ever visit Reykjavik again we will be sure to try and stay here again.

    This Hotel's location is a gem if you want to see the Northern Lights. We booked it because we wanted to be somewhere dark and try to see them, which we managed to do on the only night we were there. We couldn't believe our luck! The ocean views all around are gorgeous as well, both by day and night. Our room was very clean and quite modern, with a fresh and clean toilet as well. Check-in went smoothly even though there was no staff on sight, since they simply left the key inside and we could arrive whenever we wanted.

    We only stayed at the Hlid fishing village for one night and unfortunately arrived in the dark and left in the middle of a crazy storm so we didn't get to make the most of it. However the room was lovely, large and had windows on both sides, so you could make the most of the views to sea. It was very clean, and offered everything you need.
