Great location, clean, very thin walls

Review of 101 Hotel
4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 1 Jun 2024
The room was modern and clean, and we really liked the lobby and restaurant/bar. The location is also tremendous, you're right in the middle of the main business district in Rejkavik and can walk everywhere in town. One downside to watch for - the walls are THIN. We could hear people outside all night coming back from the bars and also noises from all around the hotel. Other than that, it was great.

We traded Marriott points for our stay at this boutique hotel and it was well worth it! Although our room was a bit cozy, we overlooked the Harpa and the water. The black and white colors and minimalist furnishings worked well. The staff was warm and welcoming and attentive to our needs. We did not dine at the adjoining Kastrup restaurant and breakfast/brunch was not available early Saturday morning---not to worry as the Gray Cat is just a few doors away and opens early for breakfast including an American cup of coffee! Well located to parking garage and walkable to major sites, harbor, Hop On Hop Off bus stop, shopping and restaurants---including the famous hot dog stand!

Room tip: Don't pass up this little gem!

It’s Friday at 11:30 PM and I can hear the BLASTING music from the club next door. Last night - same thing. I’m on the 4th floor. This by far is the noisiest hotel I have EVER stayed in and I typically stay over 100 nights per year in a hotel and have been to 30+ countries. If you enjoy your sleep do not stay here. Outside of that the staff is good and the hotel nice.

Room tip: Don’t stay here

Avoid. Dangerous.

Parts of floor are missing, no insulation for noise, no black curtains, they charge you breakfast without telling (they don’t even have scrambled eggs, what a joke), sinks runs over, shower floods the room and toilet which makes it slippery, elevator gets stuck on second floor, sink is rotated twards the window instead of mirror, no door to bathroom (no privacy only for singles or couples), no airconditioning, shower head needed to be cleaned before water came out.

Location is good.

Should be avoided considering the safety issues.

This hotel is in a great location, across the street from the downtown Tour Bus stop #6, making it very convenient for the airport bus and all the bus tours. Every tour company picks up there. The neighborhood around it is full of restaurants, bars, and shops. It's centrally located, and easy walking distance to both Hallgrimskirkja cathedral and the historic city center. I walked around a lot in the evenings and loved the vibe of the neighborhood.

Oddly, there are no signs identifying the hotel from the street or sidewalk level. Just walk where your phone map tells you, and go inside. The 101 doormat inside the lobby was the only hint I was in the right place. Hotel owners: could you etch a 101 in the glass on your front door or put up a small sign for pedestrians?

My room was very modern and clean, with a comfortable bed and all the amenities one expects. There are two things to be aware of though. 1) Only stay there with a spouse or partner (or solo), not friends or children, because there is nothing separating the glass shower from the bedroom (no wall, no doors). 2) The street side of the hotel can be quite loud on Friday and Saturday night, as this is a big night-life district and the street is busy with people loudly having a good time. But my room faced the inner courtyard and was very quiet.

Loved the interior design and the staff was very helpful. Even though the location is in the city center the noise was not bad. Saw some reviews about the noise but it was ok even though I stayed from Thursday-Monday. Comfortable beds and duvets.
