There is an upbeat vibe, a bustling energy of tourists arriving, readying to set off, bags and backpacks, excited groups geared for adventures, tours, and whale cruises. EXETER HOTEL, Forbes Best Hotel in Reykjavik, is the popular contemporary budget friendly favorite, catering to those on the go. Conveniently located across from the Old Harbour, this is the colorful area where Whale Excursions launch and quaint fishing cottages house restaurants, shops, and tour companies line the walkway. The hotel entrance is unexpectedly flanked by the popular bakery, Deig, where travelers and locals gather to take out the best doughnuts and bagel sandwiches each day, and by the Le Kock & Tail, a popular bar and burger haven. The lobby and reception is busy with eager travelers, welcomed by the hotel’s friendly and helpful staff, efficiently easing check in and out, giving directions and suggestions, and offering luggage storage for early arrivals and late departures.

The rooms have a crisp clean ambience, accented by the unique artwork of Hrafnkell Sigurdsson which captures elements of the harbor experience with bold colors enhancing the calm palette and modern minimalism. From the street views of the Economy Double rooms to the upper floor Urban Styled Rooms and suites flooded by natural light and picturesque harbor views, guests find the comforts of VALHOLL Mattress, pillows, and cozy comforters, twin and queen beds, blackout curtains, desk, spacious tiled baths with rain shower, vanity mirror, and refreshing native Icelandic organic Soley herbal skin and hair products. An HDTV, ambient lighting, and convenient garment stand, complete the necessities for budget conscious travelers of all ages. Added to the amenities, the Nespresso machine in each room delights morning coffee drinkers with Sjostrand coffees and a tea station for relaxing tea times. The complimentary EXETER traditional Icelandic sauna is a perfect relaxing retreat to end a day of travel, hiking, and outdoor adventuring.

Enjoy the easy access from the EXETER to all that the city of Reykjavik offers with shopping, museums, eateries of all descriptions and menus, pubs and bars, and transportation only steps away.
