This would have been my 3rd trip to Iceland and my 3rd stay at Hlemmur Square. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, I was unable to take my trip and stay. However, due to my past 2 stays, I would recommend Hlemmur Square to anyone. I always enjoy my stay there, the staff is so nice and helpful, and the location is FANTASTIC! I hope to return there next year once it it safe to do so. Takk fyrir! 

Couldn't Stay, But Still Great Place

I would like to mention that, even if I could not come due to the covid-19 restrictions imposed by the government of Iceland, they did their best to find a quick solution to help me knowing that I booked a non-refundable trip which was very appreciable. I will definitely stay in this Hotel when that will be possible to visit Iceland again.

Excellent Customer service

Comfy beds, large dorms, friendly staff, central location, great value for money as Iceland can be expensive! Take a key and padlock for your luggage drawer. Also next to Hlemmur bus station for local and national trips

Great hostel

· I rest in hostel, cheaper in Reykjavik. Easy found( front of penis museum😅), its popular square. Staff is friendly and very fast working. Room it's normal hostel room. Lot of bed choices one is free. Shower it's clean. It have very culture restaurant and bar part ground floor. And if you not have to much money, ( very expensive country) front if have non stop normal prices or you hungry just walk approx 300 meters to east in this main road and found easy cheaper pizzeria and burgers.

Nem volt jó · big problem the kitchen, daytime busy and To much people make to much dirt, not cleaning nobody after you, not have enough dish and somebody eat my not cheap food, but i put sticker with my name. chaotic.

best choice in Rejkjavik

This hotel/hostel has excellent location, just next to Hlemmur bus station. Also the restaurants at the old station building are just steps away from the front door. The hotel room was good size and clean, (expensive) minibar included. The bathroom was normally equipped. Bed was comfortable. The breakfast was kind of confusing, people wandering around, back and worth. However, that was also good. Good price in Reykjavik scale.

Safe choice

I booked one night in a 10-ppl-bedroom. I‘ve got an upgrade into a 6-ppl-bedroom for free. People were really nice and respectful - being able to sleep wasn’t a problem in my experience. Sure, third floor was closed and it wasn’t totally clean - but that’s nothing you can expect for a price of about 20 USD. All in all would recommend it if you try to stay low-budget.

You get what you pay for - and even a little more.

This location has both a hostel with shared rooms and a regular hotel.
My party stayed in the hotel part, located in the top floors.
The check-in process was relatively quick, although I do not know why we had to fill out papers and such when everything already was pre-paid and we also had entered guest information through the booking site.
Something to work on in these days, when less contact is better.
Apart from that: The receptionist was very friendly.

The rooms were nice and spacious. But they were not clean. There was visible dust on all surfaces, and there was dirt on the floor in one of the bathrooms, including a couple of toothpicks..
We are not squeamish, but a hotel should have clean rooms.
However, the staff reacted immediately when notified of this and it was quickly brought in order. Beer and chocolate on the house arrived in our rooms to soothe our discontent. It worked. However, I will rate the rooms as "average" because of this.

Sleeping comfort was excellent. The beds are very good.

Sadly the restaurant is no longer active. I did not ask, but it might be because of the corona-restrictions in place. I did not enquire.
There is a food court right across the street, so it is easy to get a quick evening meal, and other good restaurants are only minutes away.

Breakfast was served from 8. The buffet was simple, but more than enough. There were eggs, bacon and beans, along with cold cuts, toast bread cereals and yoghurt.

The hotel is located in Laugavegur, not far from Hallgrímskirkja, and only 10-15 minutes from the downtown area. Shopping opportunities along the street Laugavegur.

All in all we are very satisfied with Hlemmur Square. We stayed here a few years ago, and the hotel met our expectations. We might come again.

Good value for money in Reykjavik

I struggled to find what our family deems as affordable in expensive Reykjavik but THIS IS IT! The location is walkable to all Reykjavik sites, restaurants, bus stops and tour spots. The rooms were very nicely and modernly done (looked brand new), very comfortable and super clean. Breakfast was something to look forward to every morning. We very much preferred the down to earth nature of the lobby/dining area. It was just so relaxing and artsy, just like Reykjavik. The staff was lovely. We stayed at the beginning of our Iceland visit before leaving for a tour for a few days. Our original plan was to go to a different hotel upon our return to Reykjavik as Hlemmur had no availability at the time of booking, but it turned out there was a mixup at the other accommodations and Hlemmur ended up being available. We were so happy to return and the staff more than accommodated us, knowing how flustered we were with the other hotel error. I would definitely return to this spot again.

Quality for a Value Price

This hostel is in a great location, reasonably priced. Lovely friendly helpful chap on reception. Big room, good bathroom. All was great until we went to bed. The bed was horrendous, very old with springs poking out all over the place. Avoid room 411 and I hope the others are better. The breakfast was good but a good night's sleep would have helped.

Great hostel - terrible bed

My husband and I stayed in Hlemmur Square in January 2020, during the worst weather Reykjavik has seen in recent years. 
Our trip was interrupted by severe weather, which resulted in flight snd tour cancellations.However, the staff at Hlemmur couldn't have been more helpful. 
The mix of hostel and hotel rooms works well. Our hotel room was spacious and comfortable and was perfect for our 4 night break. 
The buffet breakfast was good (dont expect a 5 star breakfast) and sufficient to start the day. 
The lobby boasts a communal area with large TV, library and games area. 
The local bus station is directly across from hotel and have direct links to BSI bus depot. Bus tickets are 480kr. 
We opted for airport transfers to BSI and then walked the short distance to Hlemmur (20 mins) and on return took bus to catch airport transfer. 
This helped cut transfer costs. 
The hotel is ideally located for the downtown area and close to Hallgrimskirkja Church and Harpa concert hall. 

Thank you to all the staff at Hlemmur, we will definitely be back.
