Yes — breakfast is available as an add-on during booking or on arrival. It’s served on site and keeps things simple, filling, and stress-free before a day of exploring Reykjavík.
No. We don’t have a restaurant, bar, spa, gym, or rooftop (we like to be upfront about that). The good news? Some of Reykjavík’s best cafés, bakeries, and restaurants are literally steps away.
All rooms at Old Town are private rooms - no dorms and no bunk beds. We have options for solo travelers, couples, families, and groups of friends, with the largest rooms sleeping up to six.
No. All bathrooms are shared. They’re clean, functional, and regularly maintained - think old-school guesthouse style, just with modern plumbing. And plenty of geothermal water.
Yes - a few rooms offer a view of Hallgrímskirkja. Availability varies, so if a view matters to you, we recommend booking early.
No, we don’t have balconies. This is a heritage-protected building, and we like to keep its historic exterior exactly as it is.
Yes. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the building, in every room. It works well for browsing, planning your trip, posting glacier photos on social media and staying connected with friends back home.
Not really. There’s no coworking space and rooms are on the smaller side, even though we have a shared lounge area. Luckily, Reykjavik is full of great cafés within a 2–5 minute walk if you need a proper work setup.
Iceland’s hot water is geothermal and naturally rich in sulphur. It comes straight from underground - warm, mineral-rich, and completely safe.It’s not the pipes. All hot water in Iceland smells like this.
