We had a wonderful stay at Edition, Reykjavík. Everyone is very friendly & hospitable. Check-in was easy. Alejandra and Jessica (i think that’s her name) were very helpful and gave extra perks for being a platinum Bonvoy member. Joy & Rica were always there if we needed something or has a question - very courteous! Chef Chris at Rooftop makes really delicious sushi rolls. Really glad we tried his sushi. Eleanor makes refreshing drinks. Scott the bar tender at the speakeasy shared so much information about Iceland and made me a new fave drink - negroni with himbrimi gin, which Vasil made just as good at the lobby bar. The ladies at the spa are as friendly & hospitable. Francis who made sure snacks are refilled and always serving with a smile. Lidiane & Morgan are wonderful concierge. Lidiane helped us re-schedule one of our tours. If there’s one thing I’d say should improve, its the breakfast buffet. Selections can be improved. The pastries can be better. But in general, we had a wonderful stay at the hotel. If we go back to Iceland, we’d like to spend a few nights again! Location is prefect with an amazing view!!

Our flight was canceled last night to Iceland. I had no way of getting there. This is all weather related. I contacted The Edition Reykjavik and they would not allow me to cancel the hotel as it was no longer in the window to cancel. This seems totally unreasonable and with no empathy whatsoever. Clearly, they are not committed to the customer or hospitality. This is really unfortunate. I would be careful booking this hotel my friends.

This is a lovely hotel located directly on the old harbour. Staff were wonderful and went out of their way to make sure we always felt cared for - the Assistant Front Desk manager (she really went far beyond expectations) was particularly caring. The views from the restaurant for breakfast and dinner were spectacular, the food was excellent, and the staff, again, was very attentive. The location is central, and it is easy to walk to all the major shopping, dining, and attractions that are in downtown and the harbor area. If we are ever lucky enough to go back to Iceland, we would hope to stay here again. Other things, my wife had a 75-minute massage (book long before you arrive) and was very happy with it. If you book the hotel as part of a package, make sure you bring the confirmation showing what should be included, as the hotel staff may not have been informed, but they will make things right as soon as they are aware.

The experience was amazing. First time to Iceland. The location is perfect, close to all kinds of shops and different dining experiences all within walking distance. Gorgeous view of the water and mountains. The hotel can book excursions, the bus stops are very near the hotel and they have a call list for the Northern Lights. The staff is fantastic, so friendly and helpful. Cannot say enough, a must stay.
