This Viking-themed hotel is located at the harbor in the seaside town of Hafnarfjordur. Humpback whales can sometimes be spotted in the harbor during winter.

We love the location. It's super-convenient if visiting different areas by car. We also love the theme/decor of the hotel. It's awesome. In fact, this is the 2nd time we stayed at this location.
This hostel in Hafnafjordur, a town which is built on lava, is 15 minutes’ drive from central Reykjavik. It provides a well-equipped guest kitchen, communal dining area and BBQ equipment.

The hotel is incredible, very modern with great facilities in the room and a very comfortable bed.
The location is perfect on the Harbour everything you'll need on your trip is so close, from restaurants to tours and museums.
Downstairs in basically the lobby is the best bakery you'll ever have the pleasure of eating in, it's called DEIG even if you're not staying at the Exeter make sure you go to the bakery, in the same complex is TAIL which is a bar with live music during the week, and next to that is LE COCK a fantastic restaurant with incredible burgers and wings, all in all the Exeter is by far the nicest hotel we have ever stayed in and couldn't recommend it highly enough.
Located in Reykjavík and with Nauthólsvík Geothermal Beach reachable within 1.8 miles, Center Hotels Laugavegur has concierge services, non-smoking rooms, a restaurant, free WiFi throughout the...
Lovely little fishing village. There is a couple supermarkets and some restaurants. There is a main bus stop 2 mins from the Viking Hotel which was so handy and the stop for the Flybus coach to the airport (approx £23 pp one way) was opposite the hotel which was super handy and you get a beautiful view of the harbour whilst you wait.
We got off 2 stops early from Reykjavík one day and walked back to explore and there were some lovely sights on the way. It’s a really nice place that’s neat and tidy. Probably wouldn’t need more than half a day wandering round but it’s nice to see the town.

Great hotel. Was given a room upgrade.
Great hotel. Was given a room upgrade. The person at the reception desk was very helpful and recommended a great restaurant, A. Hansen, for dinner. Loved the shower head, felt like a personal waterfall. The room didn't have USB ports but fortunately I had a european plug adapter with me. The wifi was excellent.

Such a cute town!
Such a cute town! Small enough to feel cozy but also large enough to actually have restaurants and groceries! The whole town is very clean-like not a piece of trash anywhere. It’s so lovely & nice that it almost feels like it’s a movie set. we stayed on the water so the views were spectacular. It’s a short drive to Reykjavik so if you want to bustle of a city, you can have it in a few minutes. Its also a short drive to the blue lagoon so you can relax all day in the lagoon then make it back easily to Hafnarfjorour. Every person we met spoke English very well in the town so there were no communications issues. Pallet coffee shop is a lovely coffee shop with the friendliest staff and delicious bottomless coffee. Our first morning in town, we spent a couple hours just sipping coffee and talking with locals. Hotel Viking is cute. The rooms are nice and the staff friendly. We rented a car which made our stay very easy and everything in town was convenient.

What an awesome place!
What an awesome place! It was very conveniently located but in a nice and quiet residential area. The place was really clean and felt new; and it had everything you might need for a longer stay or a shorter one.

Hafnarfjordur was a good central location for getting to/...
Hafnarfjordur was a good central location for getting to/from the airport, Reykjavik town and the Blue Lagoon. There were a few nice restaurants nearby which reception told us about, Von Mathus and Krydd and we got takeaway from Dominoes which was also up the road from our hotel. We loved being near the 'World Class Gym' and got temporary membership.

If you like vikings AND Iceland, this is the place to stay...
If you like vikings AND Iceland, this is the place to stay at. Their viking theme is very well played out! Very friendly and helpful staff, excellent breakfast buffet (especially the waffles), though the coffee might need an update (to be fair, I'm picky when it comes to coffee). Best viking themed souvenirs (most authentic looking) in that part of Iceland.
Their hot tub is awesome after a long day of exploring and hiking :)
Incredible location on a mountain hill just outside of Hafnarfjörđur. Beautiful cabin with hot tub and fully equipped kitchen. Landlady makes sure everything is clean and we were supported where ever we needed. From the cabin, most of Icelands treasures are within reach by car. The glaciers, volcano, Reykjavik Harbour, Golden circle, blue lagoon and many more we visited on a maximum drive of just over 2 hours (most were far less).
A great place to stay! Love to go back again.
Breakfast was great with Gluten Free options upon request. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. We were there for just two nights. we were accommodated for an early check in. This was a last minute decision but I was really glad we ended up here. It was close to Reykavik but gave us options to get to know other parts of the city. The hotel has access to a great gym right next door the Reebok Fitness Center.
We only had one night to stay, but it was really special. It was so unique and fun. Our grandchildren thoroughly enjoyed the Viking themed rooms and bunk and loft style sleeping arrangements. They were so happy to be there, and that made it a great experience for us. We appreciated that the kids beds were very comfortable and the pizza at the restaurant was delicious. The front desk and restaurant staff were so kind.
When you stay with Arni, you get a slice of real Iceland. The accommodation is roomy and clean and the vintage decor adds to the homely feel. Arni was an attentive and caring host and that enhanced our visit. The facilities are basic but everything you need for a comfortable stay. It is very well situated for getting around Hafnarfjordur, with easy parking. We enjoyed our stay, thanks Arni!
The location was in an excellent position to explore what Iceland has to offer. the Room itself was amazing for me and 2 friends with shops just down to road this location was great. the facilities in the kitchen were all there (Pans, Pots, Cutlery, Oven, Microwave, Fridge and Dish Washer) We honestly felt like this was one of the best locations we stayed in whilst in Iceland!
I booked this hotel because of the access to the Reebok gym located next to the property. The gym opens at 6:00 and the front desk said I had to wait until a hotel staff member at the front desk arrived at 8:00 to let me in. I had to check out by 9:00 so the gym never happened. Disappointed.
Apartment was really spacious. Kitchen had everything we needed. The washer and dryer was definitely a bonus! Me and my friends had a few movie nights and we really enjoyed the living room area especially the huge tv. Would definitely come here again if I were to visit Iceland.
We spent 7 days in Iceland and this apartment was the best choice! It was clean, well equipped and easily accessible. Our host Damon was very kind and helpful, we could count on him at any time! The next time we visit Iceland, we will definitely choose this apartment again! :)
The place was clean and really charming whereas we booked in the afternoon for the night. Not cold, no noise and all equipement we needed was avalable. We had a mail informing us the code to have keys. Thanks for a good last night in Iceland before back home !
This hotel had the most comfortable beds out of all we stayed at during our trip. The location was excellent for a less than half hour trip to the airport for an early morning flight. Check in was super easy, the room was spacious and immaculately clean.
We arrived on an early flight and the employee onsite did everything she could to get us into our room early so that we could rest. The hotel was conveniently located near two grocery stores and Go Campers, where we picked up our camper van.
The Viking interior and exterior architecture of the hotel is beautiful. You have a great view on the ocean and there is a nice promenade for biking or jogging. The breakfast is amazing and the staff is really nice!
Good breakfast, staff generally friendly and helpful. Clean hotel, evening meals. Restaurant area and display screens. Happy to allow us to check in early.
