We stayed just one night at 101 Local since our tour started the next day. This is an excellent small hotel ideally situated for walking to downtown dining and harbor. The room we booked was very small but we did choose the cheapest option. Clean and functional with a popular dining and bar area. If staying for more nights, ensure your room size meets your needs.

Very nice and cosy hotel. The rooms are pretty small but nice. The bathroom is tiny but functional. The staff is really helpful and kind. Breakfast has great healthy and sweet options and is served with a smile. WiFi is great. Location is very good, close to restaurants and Harpa. You can park for free a few streets from the hotel, make sure to download the Parka app (it shows you which sites are pay zones). Suggestions for the hotel; a wiper in the bathroom and a towel rack.

Small but comfortable!

The room is small and there is limited storage space but the bed was more comfortable than some 5 star hotels. The room was cleaned well and breakfast was good… it would be nice if they had changed the menu a little each day and if they had skyr. The staff was friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a great stay and the location was convenient. I would definitely return.

Staff try to ensure meeting needs of travelers and very accommodating. The property is old and needs some upgrades which are expected given its age. It is a cozy and charming place for sure. I recommend travelers who value cleanliness, charm, and human touch with staff.

Very helpful staff. Stayed in one of the 2 rooms across the outdoor hall from the front desk. Quite small room, but for 2 nights it was fine. Wifi kicked out, especially the further from the door of the room. They could use a wifi extender in that part of the hotel, really good signal in the lounge/restauant. Happy hour drink specials, didn’t eat here. Lots of walkable restaurants and about 10 minutes to the rainbow street and lots of shops and cafes. Could use a fan in the bathroom as there was no ventilation after a shower.
