–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Basic facilities — Rooms come with heating and a shower but few extras; the hostel is rated 2 stars and reflects that simplicity.
- No pets allowed — Pets are not permitted on the property, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
- Check-in window — Check-in is limited to 14:00–23:59, which can be tight for late arrivals.
- Sulphur smell in showers — One guest noted a strong sulphur odour from the shower, a byproduct of Iceland's geothermal water.

7.2Verified guest“The hostel exceeded our expectations during our honeymoon. Clean, comfortable, with a well-stocked kitchen. Convenient for exploring the city, and the cozy atmosphere made us feel welcome and at home.”
7.2Verified guest“Hotel Floki was exceptional value for money. Very close to the centre, cosy beds, and a very good breakfast for the price — cereals, toast, jams, cheese, salad, fresh juice, coffee and tea. The manager was consistently friendly and helpful. The shower had a strong sulphur smell, but that's to be expected in Iceland. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this hotel.”
7.2Verified guest“Ideally located for the city centre, Hallgrimskirkja and the bus station. Good breakfast and kitchen for self-catering. Free Wi-Fi worked well, and the blackout curtains were great for the midnight sun.”
