We enjoyed a lovely three days at Hotel Klettur, which was a welcome and unexpected upgrade from the original hotel we were booked in, Cabin Hotel. The gentlemen looking after us, Kristjan Jóhann and Gonnar Eli Sigurjónsson were superb! Very friendly, and Gonnar especially extremely knowledgable of the history and area of Reykjavik and the whole island. We had some... More

Hotel Klettur is in a good location just off the quiet end of Reykjavik's main shopping street and has some very helpful staff (especially the guy who works nights) who speak perfect English. Rooms are of a good size and simply furnished. Our room was a little cool on arrival and we discovered that the underfloor heating needed quite a... More

A great hotel in an excellent location. We stayed at the hotel as part of an Icelandair Northern Lights package. The rooms are modern and functional and the hotel staff very obliging. We departed early for our flight on the departure date before the advertised breakfast time (Good Friday, which was also a total holiday in Iceland) however the hotel... More

My friend and I stayed in Hotel Klettur at the end of February 2013 as part of a Wow Air Northern Lights package, and both of us said we wouldn't hesitate to go back if we returned to Reykjavik.

I noticed that this hotel won a TripAdvisor ‘Certificate of Excellence’. In my opinion it won’t be winning this certificate in the future, but that does not make it a bad hotel. On the contrary, it’s a good hotel. Positive points; high standard of cleanliness, staff are extremely friendly and helpful, lots of local information (leaflets/books) available in the reception...

Excellent Location in Reykjavik Centre, easy walk into town with all the bars & restaurants. The staff are friendly, the rooms are clean and styled in typical Scandinavian style, and the hotel is exactly what I expected, nothing more and nothing less. I would recommend this place for a short stay in town.
