6/10 Good

2-night stay

The location is great and the downstairs bar is excellent. The breakfast is good but a bit hit and miss with some items. Coffee is excellent! The basic rooms are very small, so if with two suitcases gets cramped. Staff is lovely.

Liane, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.

Cassie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Room was clean and modern. Bed was comfortable, and tap water also great to drink. Receptionist was really kind and helpful. He guided us with the parking in Iceland and also upgraded our room without asking. Hotel is located on a quiet street, but you are within walking distance of city center. I would definitely stay in Local 101 again :)

Nice staff, good atmosphere.
Doug, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Adequate for an overnight pit stop. Staff was excellent. Our room was small (but big enough) and somewhat awkward. It, along with one other room, was located in the building next door. The room came complete with not one but TWO tiny sinks. One (minuscule) was located appropriately in the bathroom and the other (very small) outside the bathroom. That said, we slept great and were very comfortable. The breakfast, served in the lobby… next door…was very nice. Perfectly fine, as I said, for our needs.
Eliza, 1-night trip

Absolutely brilliant. Would happily stay again.

4 dages tur til Island

It was great! The staff were very friendly and you felt welcome as soon as you came in. A small but cozy hotel, and it’s the perfect place to stay when you’re in Iceland. Only thing I have, is the breakfast. It was alright, but we waited quite a long time for the items to come, I’m thinking that there only were 1 person in the kitchen. Small thing. Otherwise, everything was good!

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent in every aspect

I stayed at the hotel for 3 nights and everything went smoothly. My room was downstairs and although on the smaller side, it was perfect for one. The bathroom was excellent and the bed ever so comfortable. Staff friendly and helpful, and both the drinks and small dishes at the bar/restaurant were tasty. I will stay there again.

Loved 101! Easy to park and then walkable to the Harp and harbor where we did a food tour and hit great places to eat. The staff at the hotel was very good and kept ahead of a bustling business.

The ladies at the front desk went above and beyond in answering our questions and making us feel welcomed.
Patsy, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a charming small hotel that feels like a Scandinavian minimalist version of an Italian pension. It's owned by an impressive and friendly young couple who were very welcoming and provided great info and a great breakfast. Highly recommended.

Greta place to stay. Late about a half hour with the room prep, so I had to wait.

I had an exceptional stay at this recently renovated boutique hotel! Redone with style and flair without being pretentious. Breakfast was a treat with everything I wanted! Staff were very friendly and helpful. Ask David about the elevator story!
Harold, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

All of the staff were wonderful. The room was nice. They offer a happy hour. I was a guest during the winter after a snow storm occurred. I disliked that the hotel did not shovel the sidewalk in front of the property. It was difficult maneuvering my roller bag along their sidewalk.
