Hotel Cabin Review

The 2-star Hotel Cabin Reykjavik is situated within an 8-minute walk of Solfar Sculpture and features a bureau de change and a lift. The budget hotel is in the Reykjavik East district of Reykjavik, within 1.6 km of such natural sights as Grasagardur Botanical Garden.

The restaurant is open from 11:30 - 21:00. The lobby bar is complemented by a happy hour and Wi-Fi. While staying at this Reykjavik hotel, guests can choose from dining options nearby, such as Subway, set merely 150 metres away, or BLACKBOX Pizzeria at a 5-minute walking distance.

The low-budget accommodation is set 5 minutes' walk from Handknitting Association of Iceland with the huge 1990 stainless-steel Sun Voyager Sculpture a 20-minute walk away. Sports fans can also visit Laugardalsholl Stadium, within 1.3 km of the smoke-free Cabin Reykjavik, and take their families to Reykjavik Family park and Zoo, which is a 20-minute walk away.

Convenient location, happy hour, close to main shopping centre, friendly staff.
Nothing.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The cleanliness was top-notch, the hotel facilities were great, and the staff did an excellent job of keeping everything clean. The breakfast buffet was included and it was one of the best I've had, much better than what I'm used to in North America. The location of the hotel was also a major plus, as it was fairly close to everything to do in the city of Reykjavik. Transportation was easy, with large buses available nearby.
We were pleasantly surprised with the hotel. The premium room was spacious, had great views, and a comfortable bathroom. The location was convenient for our tours, with pick-ups directly at the hotel. Parking was always available, and the staff was exceptional, making our stay even more enjoyable.
