Great value, perfect location

Guesthouse Sunna has been my go-to since 2019, and I've just had my 7th visit. The rooms are very comfortable, the breakfast delicious, the amenities excellent, and the friendly staff go out of their way to be helpful. Not only is it great value, but situated as it is beside the Hallgrimskirkja - Reykjavik's tallest church - you'll never have trouble finding your way home after prowling the very walkable Reykjavik!

Guesthouse Sunna never disappoints!

The breakfast at Sunna is always excellent - and Sunna is especially easy to find, being so close to Hallgrimskirkja!

Fantastic location and very comfortable stay

absolutely loved the location of Guesthouse Sunna – it’s right next to Hallgrímskirkja, with a beautiful view and easy access to everything in Reykjavík. The room was very clean and comfortable. I stayed in a budget room, but it still had everything I needed, including a small chair where I could sit and relax, which was a lovely touch. There was a small sink in the room, which was great. My room was opposite a small kitchenette where other guests were cooking, but despite that, it was very quiet and I wasn’t disturbed at all. I had booked breakfast and initially thought it wasn’t included, but that was my mistake – I hadn’t realised it had been placed in the fridge. When I went to reception, they kindly offered to quickly prepare something for me, which was incredibly thoughtful and appreciated. There was no one at reception when I arrived, but the check-in process was exactly as explained in the pre-arrival message – simple and very easy to follow. Overall, a really pleasant stay. I would definitely recommend it!

170€ totally wasted!!

For this price, we got almost nothing! The bathroom & shower were not in our room, the breakfast was exceptionally terrible: bad coffee, no fresh fruit or cucumber even, green eggs, everything way too salty, only salty bread, cheese or ham. Cheapest of the cheapest yoghurt and tea. No other choices than that. We had to get our breakfast outside the hotel, to eat and drink something normal. Bad aftertaste. Outdated interior. We even have to buy shampoo or douche gel separately… what a scam!!
