In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
4 reasons to book- Spacious rooms with kitchenettes — Multiple guests mention the rooms being 'huge' and having a kitchenette, which adds convenience for simple meals.
- Free and reliable Wi-Fi — Several reviews note that the internet connection was free, reliable, and even available beyond advertised areas. This is a practical perk for travelers.
- Quiet yet central location — The hotel is described as being in a quiet area while still close to the city center, a 24-hour supermarket, and the main bus terminal. This balances convenience with peace.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Not the cheapest option in the area — With a rating of 7.9 against the area average of 8.4, and a value score of 7.2, Arctic Comfort Hotel is rated below the local norm. Prices start from £116, which may not be the most budget-friendly choice in Reykjavik.
- Street-level noise possible — While the hotel is in a quiet area, being on a main road (Sidumula 19) might mean occasional traffic sounds. Reviews do not mention noise, but the location suggests it.
- No pets allowed — The hotel has a strict no-pets policy. Travelers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 23:59. If you arrive late at night, you may need to arrange alternative plans.

7.9Verified guest“Due to the closure of Reykjavik airspace, we were rebooked and had to depart from a different airport in northern Iceland. The assistance from the hotel receptionist (a Czech national, I believe) was outstanding. She helped us a great deal and kept smiling throughout. Excellent customer service – not easy to find nowadays.”
