What guests think

At Hilton Reykjavik Nordica, travelers frequently praise friendly, helpful staff, generally clean rooms, and a well-regarded breakfast, while recurring critiques note compact, sometimes dated rooms and uncomfortably warm temperatures due to limited cooling.

The gym is a highlight, the spa is appreciated but often costs extra, and the bar is popular though prices can be high. The location sits outside the downtown core (about a 20–30 minute walk) but is convenient for tour pickups, bus links, and drivers. Expect a comfortable stay with good amenities, but with trade-offs in room size, warmth, and distance.

Facilities

The gym stands out, and the spa is appreciated but usually requires an extra fee; the bar and on-site dining are well regarded though pricey. Free on-site parking is convenient, but a few guests struggled to find spaces at peak times, and the lobby can be busy during events.

Very tiny rooms, nothing special and for the price and reputation of the brand, very disappointing. No access to the pool or facilities without a crazy additional cost and the restaurant was one of the most expensive on the Island.

I do not recommend booking here over a weekend, it is clear that parking is insufficient. One of the reasons I booked this location was for the peace of mind of free onsite parking. I spent 30min circling the entire block trying to find a parking spot at 8:00 PM this Fri 11/28. When I couldn’t find anything I parked out front (where taxi’s usually wait) to ask the front desk staff for assistance. I was met with barely any apology and told to park out by the grocery stores. These spots were also already full so I ended up parking on the street a block away. This meant having to carry all my hiking gear much further than anticipated. I am checking out tomorrow which means either I stay up later than planned to try to get a parking space in order to avoid having to carry all my luggage to the car parked a block away now or I end up having to carry all my luggage a block away in the morning. I am disappointed with the way staff barely acknowledged this inconvenience. I was planning to pay for the breakfast buffet in the morning but now feel it best to spend my time and money enjoying breakfast elsewhere.

Nice hotel - but we would have preferred to stay more down by the river. Also they advertise the hot tub on the site and show pictures but you have to pay to use it. There lots of extra charges they do not tel you about.

Overall, we had an excellent stay here. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. There are decent options for breakfast, but after the 3rd day, it can get a bit monotonous (a couple of different food themes for breakfast would be nice). Has a great view--if you get a room facing the front of the hotel. The gym is FANTASTIC, and the hotel's location is within walking distance to a pharmacy, supermarket, restaurants, and downtown Reykjavik.

Very comfortable stay - rooms are clean and well maintained. Quite convenient too - we did a fair number of tours and all had a direct pick up at the hotel. Good breakfast spread too. Only dampener was that this hotel seems to be very popular for conferences/events- hence the lobby area was always noisy.

I’m a frequent travel of Hilton properties and I will say I was very disappointed in this property. The room lacked cleanliness. You could see hand prints on the mirror & facial mirrors. The kleenex boxes were hanging off the walls, hair was left in the sink & drains, and the toilet had marks inside of the bowl.

although this current hotel charges 600 and above for our room, I would say the room is subpar at best. The mattress in the rooms is of poor quality, no back support. The bathroom are clean but the tiles in the bathroom give the appearance of a 2 star hotel. The room was loud, located on a busy road and a lot of noise comes into the room. There no a/c in the room and no airflow at all. to get airflow you have to open the windows and then it gets even more louder. The entrance and the initial foyer and reception area is very pleasant and give appearance of a nice hotel but rooms clearly lack those. I would call it more like a motel at best when it comes to the rooms. The staff was not helpful when any concerns were raised.

Room was very clean and bed/pillows were comfortable. The only downside to this hotel and I am taking a star away because of it was the toilet/shower layout. There had to have been a better way to design that area. If I used the shower, my husband had to step into a pool of water if he wanted to use the toilet and vice versa.

The first room we were in had a fridge that didn't get cold enough, so we asked for a better fridge and they changed our room. It worked out well.

We paid enough for this room for about five hotel stays in the US. The room was small, and had no temperature control. I missed in the description that it only had heat, as that is not an issue in the US. There was a window open, but none of the cool air from outside came in. There was what seemed like AC or climate control in the hallways and lobby. It was 10°-15° warmer in our room than either of them. We spent the last couple hours of our stay in the lobby it was so uncomfortable in our room. We came from 90° heat at home to 55° outside here, and we were still very warm and uncomfortable in our room. The bed was pretty decent, and the pillows weren't terrible. The shower was decent...if you are older...you might have an issue getting in and out, as the tub is really tall. We managed, but that is what I thought when I was in the shower. There was a mini fridge that we utilized for medicine, so that was nice. We used the restaurant in the hotel. We ate Sunday brunch, dinner, and breakfast the following morning. All decent meals, but very pricey!! $40 usd-$60 usd per person. I am not sure about our dinner, it may have been more that that. The receipts don't convert to USD. We walked around outside for a bit. Seemed like a safe neighborhood. The US embassy was right across the road. The lobby was very nice. The staff was very friendly. We probably should of said something about the room temperature, but I didn't want to be a pain. We made it work.
