Book a front-row seat to Reykjavik’s action with a stay at the intimate Apotek Hotel by Keahotels, rated among the top 10% worldwide on Tripadvisor. Sitting in the middle of Reykjavik’s buzzing shopping, entertainment and cultural centre, the boutique hotel is within walking distance of a symphony of sights, including Tjornin Lake and Hallgrimskirkja church, as well as sensational boutiques and lively restaurants and bars.

Apotek Hotel by Keahotels’ foundation was built in 1917 and designed by Iceland’s former State Architect Guðjón Samúelsson, who was also responsible for the National Theatre building and Hallgrímskirkja. It housed the Reykjavik Apothecary (Reykjavíkurapotek) from 1930 to 1999 but has now been lovingly restored, balancing original Art Nouveau features with all the modern amenities you’d expect of a luxury hotel. All 45 rooms and suites are fitted with neutral tones and feature views of the surrounding cityscape – the perfect antidote after busy days exploring what Reykjavik has to offer. The ground-floor restaurant will look after all your feasting needs, serving breakfast through to late-night bites with Icelandic and European flavours. Don’t forget to sample one of the pastries or desserts – they’re worth saving space for!

Staff is very friendly. They had the best shower set up, shampoo, conditioner and body lotion. Bed was very comfortable. Coffee pods in the room were great, though I could have used a couple of extra sugar and cream packets. Location can be noisy

Small-ish rooms, but nice. Don't know if there are ice machines, but I didn't find any. Windows that actually open, and my favorite part is that there was a fan in the room in the closet. Mini fridge works, but you should probably turn it up when you get there and also leave the cabinet door open because it gets overheated. Friendly, helpful staff. Great location. Restaurants & bars close. 7-11 store that's open 24 hours for food & convenience store items half a block away. Half the price of the hotel across the park from it (which we stayed at last summer and was nice). Showers have great water pressure & the water is clean, delicious, & cold out of the faucet. :)

All was good. The people and breakfast. Room the TV controller didn't match the TV so couldn't control volume. Also no draws to place clothing clothing. Beds were very comfortable.

Good location to downtown, although there was no place out front to unload our luggage. Room was ok and it was noisy on Saturday night. Not uncommon for downtown on the weekend. The biggest issue was the bed was just terrible. The main reason for a hotel! So be forewarned travelers.
