Hôtels de luxe en Iceland

Tower Suites Reykjavík occupies the upper floors of a contemporary tower on Katrínartún, artery of the business district that runs along the port. The suites play the card of Nordic minimalism: light parquet, low furniture in bleached oak, anthracite grey textiles, grazing light that changes every hour according to the course of the Arctic sun. We sleep facing the cranes of the old port, snow-capped Mount Esja, the ocean that turns from lead to steel blue. The service remains discreet, efficient, without folklore. From 607,50 € per night, average rating 9,5/10 on 339 reviews, which places the address in the Icelandic top trio. The absence of an on-site restaurant requires us to venture out, but Grandi and the city centre are a five-minute walk away ✨

The Black Pearl Apartment Hotel occupies a contemporary building on Tryggvagata, in the old port district of Reykjavik. We are in the spirit of a high-end apartment, not a palace: kitchenettes, open spaces, clean Scandinavian lines, light wood and polished concrete. The large windows overlook the port or the rooftops of the centre, the light changes throughout the day according to the season. The Wi-Fi works well, the private parking is a real plus in this neighbourhood where parking is a challenge. From 444,60 € per night, it is expensive for an apartment without palace services, but the Booking rating (9,2/10 from 583 reviews) reflects the impeccable cleanliness and appreciated autonomy. We would have liked a bar or a breakfast corner, but the address assumes its hybrid positioning. Ideal for stays of three nights and more, when one wants to experience Reykjavik like a well-off local.

Reykjavik Residence Apartment Hotel occupies a contemporary building on Vatnsstigur, residential artery a stone's throw from Lake Tjörnin. We sleep in apartments of 35 to 80 m², light parquet, Bosch kitchen, anthracite grey Scandinavian sofa, large windows overlooking the colourful roofs of the centre. Lighting is soft, materials sober (blonde wood, Icelandic wool, brushed steel), acoustics excellent. The formula suits families who want to prepare their meals and couples who stay a week, from 421,85 € the night. The airport shuttle service simplifies arrival (Keflavík 50 km away). No restaurant on site, but Laugavegur, the shopping street, begins 300 metres away.

The Hotel Reykjavík Saga occupies a modern building on Lækjargata, central artery of the Icelandic capital. We appreciate the score of 9.2/10 from over 1,100 reviews, a guarantee of consistency in service. The rooms adopt a clean Nordic style, light wood and neutral textiles, without frills but well thought out for comfort. The fitness centre allows one to keep the pace, the restaurant serves correct Icelandic cuisine without gastronomic pretension. From 424 € per night, the rate remains high for Reykjavik, but the location and reliability justify the investment. The free Wi-Fi and room service work without a hitch. A solid address for those seeking an efficient pied-à-terre rather than a palace of appearance.

The Reykjavik EDITION occupies a contemporary building on Austurbakki, facing the basins of the old port. We enter a lobby of black volcanic stone and bleached oak, Nordic light filtered by six-metre bays. The rooms play Scandinavian sobriety: Icelandic wool, tanned leather, grey marble bathrooms. The 700 m² spa offers sauna, hammam, heated pool with view over the Faxaflói fjord. The restaurant serves contemporary Icelandic cuisine, cocktail bar open until 1am. From 696 € the night, we pay for the EDITION signature and the portside location, two minutes from Harpa and the historic centre. Booking score 8.8/10 on 680 reviews, which remains solid for a recent address ✨
