The hype
Travelers love the free parking and breakfast but consistently complain about thin walls and the 'industrial' location.
Oddsson Hotel
$130-220/ gece
Şu durumda rezervasyon yapın You have a rental car, hate paying for parking, and prefer a modern, contactless base over downtown charm.
İnsanlar Neden Seviyorlar
- Free underground parking (a rarity in Reykjavík)
- Brikk Bakery downstairs is legendary for breakfast
- Spotless, modern rooms with smart TV casting
Hızlı Özet: A hyper-clean, self-service dormitory for grown-ups located in a strip mall—efficient, but don't expect a concierge to hold your hand.
@Sonya_Heath tarafından değerlendirildi: I rated this 10/10 for value! The free parking saved us so much hassle with our rental car, and the breakfast spread (especially the Skyr with frozen fruit) was the perfect start to our road trips. Not luxury, but super cozy and smart.

Reality check
The 'Midtown' name is marketing fluff—you are a 45-minute walk or 15-minute bus ride from the actual city center.
- You rented a car and plan to drive the Ring Road
- You want a high-quality breakfast included in the rate
- You prefer digital check-in and zero small talk

- Bathroom hygiene: Immaculate. Heated floors and modern grout lines show no signs of mold.
- Maintenance: Newer building feel; very few complaints about broken fixtures, though soundproofing is structurally lacking.
- Linens & towels: Crisp, white, and hotel-standard. No threadbare issues reported.
- Odors & scents: Neutral and fresh; no lingering smoke or musty carpet smells.

SSS & Gizli İpuçları
Rezervasyon yapmadan önce bilmeniz gereken her şey.
Is there a front desk?
No. It is entirely self-check-in via keypad codes. There is a 24/7 support phone number, but no physical staff in the lobby.
Is parking actually free?
Yes, both the underground garage and the outdoor lot are free. However, the garage fills up quickly in the evening.
How far is downtown?
It is not walkable for most (45 mins). You need to take the #14 bus (stop across the street) or drive 10 minutes.
Is breakfast included?
Yes, a continental buffet is included and highly rated, featuring waffles, skyr, and fresh bread.
Can I store my luggage?
Yes, there is a self-service luggage room available for free before check-in and after check-out.
Is there a gym or pool?
No gym or pool on-site, but Laugardalslaug (city's best thermal pool) is a 4-minute drive away.
İçeri Sakıları
- ✨
The 'common area' fridges on each floor are a lifesaver for storing road trip snacks since standard rooms lack minibars.
- ✨
Don't pay for coffee; the lobby machine offers free espresso drinks 24/7.
- ✨
The #14 bus stops right outside and goes straight to Hlemmur (downtown food hall) in 15 minutes.
Gitmeden önce bilmeniz gereken 5 şey
💡The 'Midtown' location is actually a warehouse district called Skeifan—great for grocery runs, bad for views.
💡The shower floors are heated, which is a surprising luxury in this price bracket.
💡There is no daily housekeeping unless requested; they clean every 3rd day.
💡The bunk beds in family rooms are surprisingly sturdy and adult-sized.
💡You can make your own waffles at breakfast, which causes a traffic jam at 9 AM.
