What guests think
At Hotel Keflavik by Reykjavik Keflavik Airport, travellers highlight convenient airport access, striking decor, and generally welcoming staff, alongside strong dining and breakfast, while noting trade-offs like paid spa access, no regular airport shuttle, and occasional noise.
Rooms range from spacious suites to small quarters with tiny or awkward bathrooms; several guests mention overheating, limited ventilation, or dim lighting. Cleanliness is usually very good, though a few reports cite hair, odors, mold, or minor maintenance issues like leaking showers and nonworking lights/TVs. The location works well for early flights and Keflavik town access, but the immediate area feels industrial and the hotel can be lively at night. Expect a convenient, design-forward stopover with variable room experiences.

TV wouldn’t switch off. Hotel is at the airport but there’s no airport shuttle service. Water in faucets was extremely hot and can cause heat burns. Hotel administration needs to keep that in mind. Sound proofing is not good and you can hear people walking in the hallways outside. Rooms and bathrooms are very small and there’s no closet in the room at all

A great party atmosphere and busy bar area when we arrived. If, like us, you need an early night before an early flight be aware that the music from the restaurant continues all night so if you are on the second floor at the restaurant end, you will still be hearing Tina Turner at 4.30 when you get up for your flight.

The first person who greeted me late at night was very helpful. When I got to my room, the cleaning staff had left a window open and wind was blowing in. The taxi I called for the next day to get back to the airport never came, but the receptionist arranged for me to go the airport with someone working there. A nearby hotel where I have stayed before (which I would have booked if it were available) did not charge to use their geothermal heated pool, which was nice to use the morning before going to the airport. Meanwhile, this hotel wanted around 40€ to use the spa, which was a disappointment. All things considered, it was conveniently located to the airport, but it was odd that they didn’t have a regular shuttle. Good breakfast, room was clean, though bathroom had some mold and seemed a little dated. The soap smelled odd. The bed was comfortable, however. If I have to stay overnight again for a layover, I would do it again if I had to, but I’d try to get the other place I liked more if it were available.

The property itself is beautiful. Everything is well decorated and very clean. The food is absolutely delicious and the staff are very welcoming and helpful. The breakfast buffet is wonderful with various choices and good coffee. Location is good too. The double bed is comfortable but the twin sofa bed is unable to sleep on as springs dig into your body. I would highly recommend it but make sure to have your own regular bed.

Room #124 was very tidy & clean, but the room had a toilet scent, even though the bathroom was spotless. The scent was strong enough to prevent me from getting any sleep at all. The Hotel offered to change our room, but we declined to avoid having them clean up an additional room after we already used the first room.

We found hair on our bed and on the walls in the bathroom. No ventilation in the bathroom. So, if you take a hot shower, everything gets soaked.

We had two rooms, one of which was OK. The other was a disaster. The heating wouldn’t shut off and hotel staff didn’t know what to do and couldn’t move us to another room, but it was 28° all night long. Needless to say it wasn’t very good sleeping before an important flight the next day The hotel is a little Gerry And design and decoration, but it’s adequate for most rooms. I think it is a little noisy from the street and inside the hotel.

When we got to our room, it was 29 degrees Celsius. We tried to control the thermostat and turned to 16 C, and opened all windows (it was snowing). We alerted the desk and also asked for a lighter bed cover as it was so hot and the bed covers were quite thick - they said they had nothing lighter. After three hours, the room was no cooler and we were uncomfortably hot and knew we would not be able to sleep like that. After reporting this and requesting a new room, we were then told we would need to take a downgrade, which we did not dispute. This was true, the new room was significantly smaller and the television did not work, so we had to watch a movie on our tablet.

Rooms are small and the bathroom is dated but bed was comfortable. We were just there to rest before an early flight but unfortunately the fire alarms went off twice around 10pm and walls are thin so you can hear conversations in the hall and your neighbors showering. Not restful like we wanted unfortunately. Staff was pleasant. Please note if you drive parking is limited and we had to park in a lot behind a gas station and drag our bags because there is no loading or unloading zone we were told that was for taxis only by staff.

Check in experience was terrible. Stood like a lemon for 15 minutes with every member of staff walking past us. When we finally asked the bartender whether we could check in he said the receptionist was on her break. No apology and an attitude from receptionist. Wasn’t impressed with bartenders attitude when we went to get a drink either. Room was clean but cold. We were warmer in the log cabin by the frozen lake that we just came from. No menu for room service. Then when we called down we were told there was no room service on Fridays… Only redeeming feature was the free parking and a different receptionist on check out.

I can’t really rate this hotel, because even though I booked it 3 months in advance, when we arrived we were told they had moved us to the hotel across the street. We didn’t have any advance warning so I was very surprised. We were assured that they had given us an upgrade (though what that upgrade was she didn’t mention). When we got to the Radisson, we had a nice room but basic, nothing I would consider an upgrade. We thought perhaps they would add breakfast for our troubles, but they did not. That being said, the Radisson was nice and the staff was great, but the breakfast was not included. I really wanted to say at Hotel Keflavik, so it was a bit disappointing.

We had our reservation 3 months before our trip, all paid off. We arrived to the hotel after our long trip and we were told by the receptionist that we were being transferred to another hotel because they were overbooked because of there was a system error. We resisted to be transferred to another hotel because we didn’t know anything about that hotel, our priority is our safety. But there was nothing we can do because we were told by the assistant manager that they were full, and there were no rooms available for us . How did that happen when we were booked and paid our reservation 3 months before our trip. We were told by the receptionist that she was calling me and that she sent an email to inform us about the change. But I did not received any message from them. The receptionist said she called me on November 14, and that’s the day of our flight. How do they expect us to get the message when we were already in the airplane. That was ridiculous! we were so frustrated. We were transferred to another hotel and the location is like a ghost town. It used to be a military base and there was nothing there to see. It was so isolated. Even the receptionist in that hotel was very apologetic and felt bad for us. She said that they constantly get a call from Hotel Keflavik asking for transfer of accommodation same day of the reservation. That was unacceptable!!! Hotel Keflavik excuse was a system error, but when I read the reviews, there were customers with the same experience.

We arrived at Hotel Keflavik at 4AM after a flight, and the staff was SO accommodating and kind! They gave us a free breakfast, showed us to our very clean room, and we tried to sleep off the jetlag. The breakfast was OUT OF THIS WORLD and exactly what we needed after an overnight flight. We will come back for the food and the wonderful people!

The staff was exceptional! They heard our flight was cancelled and upgraded our room. The restaurant and bar staff when above and beyond to make us feel at home. I highly recommend this hotel.

We arrived very late and it was raining and cold. The staff at reception told us our room is at the first floor and insisted we went out of the hotel entrance and walked around the building to find the room . When I asked if we could walk inside the building with our luggage, he just said no. I asked again, still got the same answer. A lady finally came up, showed us the way to walk around inside the hotel. It is not the nice way to be treated in a “4 star “ hotel.

We arrived at 14.25 and could not get our rooms before 15.00. But if we payed EUR 20 we could get it immediately. That’s not good service.

Extremely helpful staff who worked tirelessly to help out people stuck in Iceland during hazardous weather when the flights were cancelled several days in row. Great place to stay and excellent food.

Location
Handy for KEF flights (about a 10–12 minute taxi) and walkable to Keflavik’s waterfront and eateries; also a convenient base for the Blue Lagoon. Not walkable to the airport and some find the immediate area industrial or quiet.

Nice hotel near the airport. Convenient to get to. Friendly staff. We reached after midnight but had no trouble checking in. They have free parking in front of the hotel which is nice. Excellent breakfast buffet in the morning.

Hotel was fine the room was quite a bit smaller than pictured and the mini fridge did not work. The area around the hotel was industrial so the hotel seemed a bit out of place. But less than 10 minutes to the airport for an early flight was convenient.

Convenient because it is close to the airport. Nice decor in the hotel. The bathroom was clean but not well designed. The room for three of us was quite small. Some nice restaurants within walking distance. It has a nice bar and lobby area.

The hotel itself is lovely. Nice room. Comfortable and quiet. The area is somewhat mixed use, so there are some bars and restaurants but also some industrial buildings. It was a good option to be near to the airport for a morning flight. I would stay again.

A relatively large, full-service hotel in the center of town with a private parking across right across the street. It’s only 10 minutes from KEF airport – a great location if you are catching a morning flight. I stayed in a single room. While the bed was comfortable and in-room amenities included a safe, refrigerator, teapot and coffee maker, there were several quirks in the design of my room. For example, the TV was on a wall parallel to the bed, which made it difficult to watch. There was no nightstand or shelf next to the bed where I could place a glass of water or my phone. In fact, there was only one available electrical outlet for charging my phone, located at the foot of the bed, and there was nowhere to place the phone while it was being charged other than on the bed itself. At night, the room lighting was rather dim, even with two ceiling fixtures, a small table lamp near the window, and several LED spotlights next to the bed. I enjoyed my dinner in the restaurant and I also opted for the breakfast buffet (22 EUR) which included a number of hot items (scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, etc.), and a large variety of cakes and finger sandwiches among other choices. The décor in some of the public areas is a little over-the-top (e.g., mirrored ceilings in the corridors outside the rooms).

Overall, it was great. The restaurant is beautiful, the decor is interesting, and the room is fine. I booked a twin room and it was small but definitely big enough! The food was delicious but comes at a price, though. Literally, it's expensive, even by Reykjavik standards. I appreciated that they let me hang out in their garden room. They wanted to charge €20 PER HOUR to check in early, without even checking whether the room was ready. Also the room was really hot (which I get is unusual for Iceland) but I could NOT get it to cool down with the tiny window. :-(

We had dinner in their restaurant waited for more than one hour and saw one female staff delivered my order (sunny kef burger) to the next table. Strangely, the customer accepted it. It made me thinking he had the same order as mine. one of our order came at the same time. 10 minutes Later, the staff went to the next table took his plate off their table. We waited another 25 minutes for our two other orders, it was about time the restaurant to be closed. It made me mad. When I ask him why it took so long for a simple burger, he said because of another big party was going on in the other side. he did not even apologize about the delay. He did not mention the delivery to wrong customer, which was a big no no. The staff service was extremely terrible.

I really like the restaurant for dinner and the breakfast buffet. The former is classy; the latter is very convenient for most travelers who are ready to explore the area or get back to the airport. Strongly recommend.

When flying back home from your wonderful adventure trip around Iceland and you need a place to stay close to the airport this is it. Great food, great location, a spa, first class service, then you need to experience this hotel. If you are flying in and have a layover, then don’t cheat yourself out of this hotel. My wife and I loved everything about it and you will too.
