Positive Reviews
positive:
Central location in Reykjavik's old town.
This aparthotel apparently boasts a fantastic location, right smack bang in the middle of the Reykjavik Old Town, only a short walk away from all of the major tourist attractions — including Hallgrimskirkja — and just minutes from a wide array of bars, cafes and restaurants. Moreover, people were positively surprised to find that there was no night-time noise, despite the very central location.
positive:
Friendly, helpful concierge; great breakfast, bar.
Guests loved the attention they received from the concierge staff members, mentioning them as being very friendly and a great help in planning their Icelandic adventures, or recommending a local spot to eat at. Furthermore, Kvosin Downtown is said to provide a delicious, nicely presented and filling breakfast option in the restaurant next door, and there is apparently also a neat little bar in the lobby, for those in need of refreshments after day trips.
positive:
Attractive decor, comfy and very well equipped.
The rooms and suites at Kvosin Downtown were thought to have very attractive modern, yet homely decor, plenty of space and a high standard of cleanliness. On top of this, those who stayed mentioned enjoying exceptionally comfortable beds and excellent amenities, like a Nespresso machine, quality toiletries, a rather well-equipped kitchenette and high-end technology.
