Great location

We greatly enjoyed the location. We had great access to the downtown and outlying areas. The place is small but worked well for us. It does have one bathroom (we were confused and thought it had two), but it was not a problem. Would seriously consider staying there again. Owner was easy to work with.

Great location and very helpful host!

The location cannot be beat. Walking distance to city center, 8 minute walk to the big church, and grocery store. Did not even use my rental car unless we wanted to go see the waterfalls. Jonas the host was very kind and helpful and went above and beyond when we had questions about the next leg of our trip. Could not recommend this place and host more.

Apartment was perfect for my family of four. Walking distance to downtown made enjoying the city easy and fun. And it served as a great home base for exploring other areas like the Golden Circle. Having access to laundry was really nice. The kitchen was well equipped. Great place in a great city!

Excellent place to stay in Reykjavik

Great communication, apartment is very nice and in a great location (with free street parking). Bathroom is amazing, beds are comfy; one is soft and one is firm, so you can find your preference. Kitchen is well set up and even has some condiments (salt, oil, sugar, etc) Perfect apartment for the three of us, highly recommended😀

Lovely property in nice neighborhood

Our family of 3 enjoyed staying at this property! The property was very spacious, so much nicer than staying in a cramped hotel! We liked being able to cook some meals, but there were some restaurants within walking distance. Parking was easy and convenient. We had some issue with connecting to the wifi, the owner was very responsive and came over to check on the issue. We would stay here again!

Nice Apartment Centrally Located

This was a great unit. It was perfect for our family of three. Right by a park with a lake and a short walk to the church area (Hallgrimskirkja) with numerous shops and restaurants. Especially enjoyed walking to Reykjavík Roasters and the cinnamon rolls at Braud & Co. Owner is very attentive and the unit has all the basics needed to enjoy the stay and do some cooking.

Reykjavik trip

Enjoyed the apartment space and cleanliness. Two bedrooms and a washer/dryer were important to us. Easy walk to town and tour bus stops. Only “minor” negative is the street is a main route for traffic which was noisy until about midnight. Overall, I liked the apartment and I would stay here again.

Perfect location!

The location is perfect - just a few blocks and easy walk from downtown Reykjavik! Beautiful neighborhood, very safe, and clean. Parking is still free along the street here as well. The condo was perfect for our family of 4. The beds and linens were very comfortable and the shower/bathroom was very nice. We used the washer/dryer several times and appreciated having a nice kitchen to prep meals for our adventures. Very clean, modern, and has a small patio if you’d like to sit outside. The only (very slight) negative was that the apartment didn't match the pictures posted at all, but I understand there may be a few different apartments within the same building. Also, there is not a microwave which may be typical for Iceland, but we were not aware of that and had to change up our meal planning some. The property manager, Jonas, was very responsive and great to work with. We would definitely stay here again!

Excellent central location

Our 1 week stay at this apartment was excellent. The location is in a neighborhood setting just off the highway giving easy access when driving outside the city to explore areas outside Reykjavik. It's also within walking distance of shopping and restaurants. Parking on the street was never any problem. The apartment was as presented, with comfortable bedding, and high end finishes.We would not hesitate to stay here again when returning to Reykjavik.

About the host

Hosted by Jonas Olafsson

Me, Jónas Ólafsson and my wife Valdís have been renting out 3 apartments in the center of Reykjavík since 2010.
My profession is Advertising and my wife is a computer scientist,

Why they chose this property

I´m in the advertising business and my company The Icelandic ad agency (Íslenska) is just across the street and I feel in love with this part of the city and bought few properties to rent out, definitely the nicest part of the center.

What makes this property unique

Very simple 'the best location in Reykjavík'
Welcome to Þingholtin, Reykjavík
FULLY LICENSED

This neighbourhood in central Reykjavík is a historic area. In the strictest sense, its name collectively refers to only a handful of streets around Þingholtsstræti, but nowadays, citizens refer to the whole neighbourhood south of Bankastræti as Þingholtin.

Colourful houses are a prominent feature, many of which were built around the turn of the 20th century and in the following decades. Many of Reykjavík’s most affluent citizens made the area their home and there’s history around every corner. Þingholtin draws its name from the farm Þingholt (literally, Parliament Hill), built in the late 18th century when Reykjavík was still just an ecclectic collection of semi-urban farmhouses.

As the neighbourhood is centrally located and close to many official government bodies, it has become a diplomatic centre and many embassies are based here.

When staying in this interesting area, all services are close by and the vibrant city life is but a few footsteps away.
No matter whether you’re in Iceland on business, here for a weekend mini-break or intend to explore more of the country, the Þingholt area is an ideal location.

The neighbourhood is immediately south of Iceland’s main shopping street, where you’ll find a wide range of boutiques, shops, art galleries restaurants, cafés and bars. The Harpa Concert and Conference Hall is within walking distance, where architecture, music and spectacular views go hand in hand.

Buses and coaches are within easy reach, so you can enjoy exploring both the city and the countryside from your base in Þingholtin.
