    The location was ideal: right in the heart of the city, with excellent proximity to tons of sights, restaurants, clubs, bars, and museums. The hotel itself has an elegant, yet modern, feel with beautiful marble floors, high ceilings and wonderful amenities.

    As it is in the busy central part of Reykjavik shopping area. There is a lot of night life, music, and people shouting noise that comes into the hotel room . This can create a bit of nuisance for sensitive light sleepers.

    Radisson Blu 1919 hotel is right at the heart of the downtown shopping area of Reykjavik. It is 2 to 10 minute walk for most shopping and eating places. Location is superb.

    I don’t like that two twin beds are pushed together to try to create a queen sized bed but this is an issue at many hotel properties throughout Europe and it’s not specific to this property.

    The front desk upgraded me to a top floor junior suite upon check in due to my Radisson VIP status which was a great gesture and much appreciated. I interacted mostly with front desk staff and they were consistently pleasant and helpful and arrange of issues relating to my stay. The location is superb right in the heart of the center city. The breakfast was fine, decent food and reliable but nothing exceptional.

    This hotel charges a different rate for each night of the week. Thursday we paid $399, Friday 428, Saturday $643!!! and Sunday $345. On top of these rates breakfast was not included! $28 per person is the charge for breakfast. Nothing in Reykjavík is reasonable but we found these rates to be excessive.

    The breakfast buffet was good but expensive especially on top of the room rate. The location was perfect, central to everything you want to see in Reykjavik.

    Asked that the room be charged to our WISE card which we gave the person at reception, rather than the card on file. However, later realised that it was charged to the Visa card on file, and so we incurred an international transaction fee, which would have been avoided if the correct card was charged.

    Location was fantastic. Love the water, tea and coffee and chocolate at reception. Staff were very friendly.

    Great service - a little more focus on housekeeping needed.

    Where it let us down was the cleanliness of the room. It wasn’t bad by any stretch but for the price point we just expected a bit more care to be taken I.e cleaning rag was left in the room, coffee cup wasn’t cleaned, bed looked pretty hastily made, bed side tables after cleaning were left on the diagonal. There was some unpleasant / musty smells at time from the hallways (not sure how much that can be controlled). Now again this wasn’t anything critical and we still had a lovely stay - I think for what we paid we would’ve expected some of these things to be a bit more perfect but overall I’d say these are easy fixes with more care taken with housekeeping.

    The location was great and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. Andrea at the front desk was very lovely and so welcoming! We requested a quiet room after reading some reviews about the noise. This was easily accommodated for us. Whilst we were there over a weekend and did hear a little noise it wasn’t a concern for us. A pretty easy walk to any tourist attractions and tour bus stops as well.

    It was very noisy outside thru the night. The twin beds were very small and very soft and I don’t like the shower over the very high bath , too dangerous to slip and fall. The towels were very old also.

    It was close to the centre& restaurants & shops. The room and bathrooms were big.
