Location

The location of Hótel Reykjavík Grand had mixed reviews from guests with some describing it as lovely, beautiful and perfect for exploring the city.

On the other hand, there were some guests that found the location quiet and peaceful. The hotel also had good transport links and was easily accessible by car. Overall, the location of the hotel seemed to be a matter of personal preference and depended on whether guests were comfortable with walking or using taxis to get around.

Staff

The staff at Hótel Reykjavík Grand are consistently praised as friendly, helpful and professional. They are quick to offer recommendations and provide adhoc advice. The reception staff have been known to recommend the nearby Grandi Mathöll for food and can book taxis on guests' behalf. The hotel is accommodating, allowing early check-ins and providing complimentary tea, coffee and pastries at the reception. The bar and restaurant staff are lovely and provide an excellent service. There are, however, a few reviews that report surly or rude front desk staff, who seem indifferent and uninterested in helping guests. Despite this, the staff at Hótel Reykjavík Grand are largely considered helpful, attentive and friendly.

Spa

The spa at Hótel Reykjavík Grand receives mixed reviews with some guests finding it modest and limited in its offerings. There are two lukewarm saunas and two hot pools available for guests to use. The spa is located in the basement, along with the gym. However, some guests were disappointed to find that the spa only opened late and closed early during the week. Additionally, the use of the spa is not included in the room rate and guests are required to pay an extra fee to access it. One guest mentions that they had booked the hotel specifically for the spa, but due to the limited opening hours and extra fees, they were unable to use it. Another guest points out that the description should have made it clear that even the use of the spa was at an extra cost, not just the massages. Furthermore, it's worth noting that there is no sauna, only a steam room available at the spa. Despite these limitations, other guests found the spa tub in their junior suite to be exactly what they needed and one even mentions a Jacuzzi bath in their room.

Family

Families and large groups travelling together will find plenty of space and comfort at Hótel Reykjavík Grand. The hotel offers family rooms and junior suites that can accommodate up to three people. Guests particularly liked the size of the rooms with some describing them as 'big' and 'lovely'. There is also the option for large groups to stay in rooms close to each other. However, some guests did experience some noise disruptions from wedding music and construction works, so it may be worth requesting a quieter room if possible. Overall, the hotel's location is great for families as it provides easy access to nearby activities and attractions.
