Sif Apartments Reykjavik - 2 Bedrooms with balcony

We had a fantastic stay at Sif Apartments in Reykjavik. We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment with our 2 teenage boys. The apartment was really clean and well laid out and kitchen well equipped. Having 2 bathrooms was really handy. The covered balcony was a really nice touch. It was within walking distance to the city centre and about a minute walk to bus stop 12 for most tour pickups. It was quiet in the neighbourhood so nice and quiet. The communication was excellent throughout and we knew exactly what we needed to do. There are grocery shops close by so we cooked most nights and made sandwiches for the day to try and shield ourselves from the prices We had a car which we parked in the underground car park. This was probably the only negative it’s quite expensive and the parking app pretty rubbish along with the pay machine. It scans your number plate on entry but when you leave you still have to put in your entry time. It was all a little weird and easy to get wrong. It is an underground car park though so protected from the elements! Overall a very positive experience and we will definitely stay again if in Reykjavík. Plus we saw the Northern Lights which was a massive bonus!

It was very nice. Close to everything. Parking can be a challenge. I would stay again. It is worth the extra money.

Our group of four enjoyed our stay at the Sif Apartments. The building looks brand new. It's situated just about a mile from most of the crowded spots of Reykjavik. We had a rental car so getting around was no problem. The building and our rooms were overall very quiet, but there was an unexplained fire alarm one night that went on for about 10 minutes. Just as I got all the way to the entrance from my 6th-floor room, it stopped. One thing that was tricky was the parking garage. Finding the entrance was easy, however, we had two stressful situations regarding the garage. First, it is an absolutely humongous garage that is laid out in a very confusing way. It connects to many different buildings including offices and restaurants, so it's very challenging to navigate yourself to the Sif Apt building. Plus, you have to actually enter the building from the outside main entrance since the front door code does not work on the doors in the garage. On top of that, you have to then remember the maze to find your car when you want to go somewhere. You might want to give yourself at least an extra 5 minutes to find it...no joke. Second, make sure you know how you're going to pay. You can do it via the Parka app or at one of the kiosks in the garage. Our first kiosk apparently wasn't working properly but it took us several tries before we realized that. Luckily, we found a different kiosk and it worked just fine. The Parka app is much more convenient and trouble-free.

Parking garage was very convenient but be prepared for the expense of parking. This is all around Iceland so no escaping this cost. Apartment was very nice and modern. Had everything we needed for cooking and washing clothes and dishes.

Every thing is great but not easy to park car.

Plenty of room for a family of 5. Easy access from underground parking, and surrounding grounds well maintained. Convenient location for walking downtown attractions, or nearby bus stops if you don't have a car.

Great location to everything. Just off the Main Street. Indoor garage for parking and very nice apartment.

We chose this property on a whim and were very pleased upon arrival. Bus Stop 12 is right out the door which is very convenient for most tours and there is an amazing coffee shop right around the corner! We were able to walk to downtown Reykjavik daily with minimal effort. We had a small issue with luggage storage code on our checkout day but quickly received assistance via email. I would highly recommend this property!

Great location, everything within Reykjavík easily walkable. Grocery stores a few minutes walk in several directions. Apartment was very spacious and modern we had so much room as a family of 4. It was clean, warm and well-maintained. We cooked a couple of meals and the kitchen had everything we needed. We had a rental car and parked on the next road which was free. There were always spaces available. Overall would highly recommend for a city break.

The apartment is very nice. Parking is the only problem. The building garage is very expensive. It would make things much easier if it was included in the price.

Kitchen fully equipped, really clean and warm. Lovely shower too! Could walk everywhere we wanted to go.

En general bien. Muy buena ubicación. Solo que falta limpieza. La cortina de baño olía muy feo incluso la tuvimos que lavar para usar la regadera. La terraza no era utilizable ya que todos los muebles estaban muy sucios y las cortinas enrollables estaban llenos de mosquitos

The laundry is the only benefit. And the location to bus stop 12. The sheets were stained and had hair all over, I had to go to the basement to get more. Worth it for laundry or if you need kitchen access. Not worth it otherwise.

Impeccable apartment, I can’t find one bad thing to say about this place. It was modern, clean and well equipped. Easy to find and get to the apartment with the instructions provided. We had the best time here.

The Sif Apartments was an excellent choice! The place is extremely clean, well equipped. Place is great located... bus stop #12 is just around the corner (most of the excursions companies can pick you up from there). 10-15 min walk to the most of Reykjavík's attractions... lots of places to grab bite to eat around. Communication with Sif Apparrtments very smooth and pleasant!

First, the good. The apartment is in a great location. It has all the amenities listed. It is spacious and an easy walk to the city center. Now the bad : we checked in at 3 PM. The apartment was filthy. It took the cleaner two extra hours to clean it so it in fact was not ready until 5 PM. We were two mothers traveling with children a nd we were exhausted. We emailed the apartment management multiple times with no response. Ultimately, instead of offering a partial refund, they offered us a late check out which was of absolutely no use to us. We paid for two hours and which we are unable to use the apartment at the most critical time when our kids needed to sleep. So if you care about location and space this is a good fit. If you care about customer service and regard for guests, I would not recommend this place. It was it was not ready in time Despite the notice that we gave management that we had landed. And when we arrived, I cannot stress enough, how dirty the place was until the cleaner was done. Another thing worth noting is that it took management 3+ hours to respond to emails or text and they still have not responded to the email. I sent saying that we did not want the late check out but would prefer a refund instead.

The bed was comfortable. Kitchen was decently equipped. We had a 1 bedroom apartment and there was a TV in bedroom but but the living room - which we didn't like. The Wifi is not secure... no password, which we find shocking in this day and age. This place is clean on the surface but don't look closer than that - dust everywhere... look at the headboard behind the pillows and there is a shocking amount of dust, same with the baseboards. We stayed 5 nights and the fire alarm went off 2 nights waking us from a sound sleep both times. Be sure to read fire alarm instructions - no one is coming to tell you it's OK to go back in the building... We felt safe here and were able to walk all over the place. Easy access in and out of town if you're driving.

The apartment is clean

Our stay was fantastic. The apartment is really clean and spacious. Communication with the host was excellent with immediate response. We would stay here again!

Comfortable and spacious 2BR 2BA apartment. Very well equipped kitchen!

The apartment we had was fantastic. It was clean, spacious and well equipped. The location was perfect, an easy walk to all the attractions, main street of Reykjavik and close to two well stocked supermarkets. The stand out factor was the incredible view we had. Would definitely recommend as the place to stay in Reykjavik!

Apartment was exactly as listed. It was clean and spacious. A very detailed guide is provided with information about the apartment, building and area. Only recommendation is to provide fans. Windows in bedrooms don’t open very much and the nights felt quite warm where you had to sleep with the balcony and bedroom doors open for airflow.

The Sif apartment were clean and had everything we needed for our short break in Reykjavik. The beds were comfortable and the location was handy for the city, although not directly in the centre. A couple of small things that could be improved : 1. A small welcome pack would have been helpful, although dishwasher tablets were included there was no washing up liquid or milk, so buying supplies straight away was essential. A pint of milk would have been very handy. 2. The sofa is very small and hard as it's a sofa bed, so not the most comfortable to relax on and only really big enough to sit 3 people. This is not ideal when the flat is marketed for 4 -6 people

The apartment was great! Within walking distance of all the shopping and food options. Very modern decor and comfortable beds. The only complaint was the microwave was situated above the refrigerator way out of reach.

The property is good and location is good. The only thing i would like to complain is the balcony door. It closed but there is a small gap so during our stay the wind was strong and at night i couldnt sleep because of the loud noise when the wind came from the gap

Spacious, clean, comfortable, walkable to all the sights - what more can you want? We stayed in the 2-bedroom apartment… it was beautiful and had so much space! Seems like a new building. You will not regret staying here, I promise.

Quiet location, close to main retail and restaurants. Very roomy apartment

Spacious apartment, convenient location for tour pickup and drop off.

Convenient location, nice apartment, having the washer and dryer was a plus. Check in process was a bit of a challenge as we were given the incorrect building and code information. After 45 min of back and forth we finally got in the apartment. Aside from that, a pleasant stay.

I prepaid for the apartment and then days before the stay SIG apartments charged me again for the stay. When they realized the error they attempted to reimburse the payment. However at the end based on currency exchange I was reimbursed less $75US. How is that fair and why am I at the end penalized for a mistake that was not my fault. Useless apologies, I want my money back!!!!!

Awesome property. Needs to improved communication as they have a robot that answers.

Our family of 4 had a great stay in this apartment. It was very clean, comfortable, fully stocked with everything you need to cook and clean up, including dishwasher soap, washer and dryer with laundry soap was also appreciated! Beds were comfortable, pillows were great. Hosts were very responsive when we asked for more towels- and same were easily accessible to us on site. Coffee maker wasn’t great so we picked up some instant coffee at the nearby market. The area was safe with lots of places to shop and eat within walking distance. Would totally stay here again!

Nice place for a central location while in town. Only 2 towels with no face cloth which is weird for 2 adults for 8 nights. I emailed about this but never heard back. All in all a good stay.

Apt was clean and spacious but lacked sufficient lighting in bedroom. Communication with management was very poor. Lighting in hallway dark upon entering. Decent location..walkable to stores and restaurants. No lobby . Maybe no one on site to talk to in case of issues! Overall 3.5 stars out of 5.

We were able to reach the staff at all times, which was very nice. Once when we first checked in and the code wasn't working and once pertaining to parking. They quickly gave us a new code which worked for the entirety of our stay and gave us some advice about parking. It's a city. Parking is weird in cities. The apartment was beautiful. Would definitely stay again.

Very nice location-within walking distance of the city center and right by bus stop 12. Our apartment was clean and easy to access.Communication with staff was easy and replied promptly! I would definitely stay here again!

Great apartment! Communication with management was excellent. Good location, clean, well equipped and would book again.

Great location and easy to access

Great option for travelling with teens, we had 2 large bedrooms so everyone could spread out, much better than a hotel setup! Accommodation was modern, immaculate, shower was fantastic, beds super comfy, kitchen had all amenities needed. Location is also great, right next to bus stop 12 where loads of tours pick up from. 5 mins walk to seafront. Highly recommend SIF Apartments, literally ticked all our boxes and was very reasonably priced too!

I recently had a fantastic stay at SIF apartments in Reykjavik and wanted to share my thoughts. The location is excellent, just a five-minute walk to the main Laugavegur street, making it incredibly convenient to explore the city. Plus, being close to the Hlemmur food hall and surrounded by restaurants and coffee shops made dining options a breeze. The only minor downside was the cost of parking in the building's underground lot, which could deter guests from leaving their cars there during the day. It would be great if SIF could negotiate a fixed rate with the parking owner for 24-hour or longer stays. As for the apartment itself, it was clean, spacious, and well-equipped with all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The only issue we encountered was with the shower in the en suite bathroom, which wasn't entirely water-tight, leading to some water spilling onto the floor. However, we hope this is specific to the apartment we stayed in and not a common problem. Overall, our experience at SIF apartments felt like a home away from home during our five-night stay. Despite the minor parking and shower concerns, we would definitely choose to stay here again for the wonderful location and comfortable accommodations.

Spacious very clean apartment with all the amenities~ Walkable to center of town!

The Sif apartments are really centrally located for Reykjavík points of interest. All are within walking distance, but the location is also very quiet. There are grocery stores nearby which offsets the high prices in Iceland. The apartments are clean, spacious and really well equipped. The washer dryer is especially useful as it means you can pack fewer clothes and get anything dry that falls victim to the Icelandic weather!

The apartment was lovely; clean, modern, well equipped. Walking through the arch of the apartment building across the street, then a second apartment building took us to a terrific food hall which starts the walk along the major pedestrian thoroughfare. We walked straight to the old harbor, and the rainbow road to the iconic church. We thought it was a great place to stay and easy to get out of town to do our day trips to visit the Golden Circle and the South Coast. We parked in the garage under the building. Easy but expensive. Download the Parka app and billing is automatic by camera. If we ever return to Reykjavik we’d choose to stay here again.

Clean, modern apartment in the center of Reykjavik. It was well-appointed and had everything we needed for a short stay. The beds were comfortable and having a washing machine & drying rack was a plus. We loved that we could easily walk everywhere in Reykjavik, but it’s also close to the highway to go exploring. Parking options are paid on the street or in the garage below the building. We never had an issue finding a spot. Highly recommend and would stay here again.

The property located is very convenient area. Walkable to supermarket and all restaurants. Nearby tour pickup bus stop #12. It is so convenient for.
