10/10 Exceptional

Clean, affordable place to stay

Great, clean room to crash in while in Reykjavík, especially for the price. Nothing fancy. Slightly small for four adults. Great free breakfast.

8/10 Very good

Centrally located nice guesthouse

Clean spaces and sufficient facilities at the heart of Reykjavik. Early check in at 2PM and breakfast were nice.
Jaana, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Basic but adequate. Good location.

We stayed here twice. It wasn't flash but was all we needed. Unfortunately both times we had to leave before breakfast was served so unable to comment on that. It was a shared bathroom but we didn't have any issues with that - it was kept clean and was available when needed. We had a wee visitor through the window which was fun.

Great place

Very helpful staff - travelling with a baby and the cot was already in the room. Stored our luggage for us upon arrival. Great breakfast - perfect location for our short stay in Reyktavik

Craig, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I needed to make a last-minute reservation in Reykjavik and looked at Guesthouse Aurora primarily based on price and location. And it didn't disappoint. I had a clean room, clean shared bathroom and a good breakfast in a safe area very close to Hallgrímskirkja church. They also can do laundry for a cost and hold luggage.

10/10 Exceptional

Budget but great value and location

This is a budget guesthouse. That being said, the staff was very responsive booking us a return bus pickup to the airport and the breakfast was varied with fresh baked bread.
Lisa, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean inviting and friendly guesthouse in the heart of Reykjavik. Right by bus stop 8, perfect for tour pick ups, and an easy walk to the Main Street with food. Community pool within walking distance as well. Felt safe and comfortable as a female solo traveler. I stayed in the second building, which was also an apartment building on the other side. I needed 3 keys to get into my room which made me feel extra safe and comfortable. Breakfast was fresh buffet style and perfect to grab before a long day of adventures

10/10 Exceptional

We had a great time at Guesthouse Aurora. It is located right next Hallgrimskirkja, shopping, dining, and old Reykjavík. It was a five minute walk to the BSI bus station where many of our day tours left from.We had a kitchenette and were able to cook for ourselves. Everyone was very nice and they allowed us to store our luggage on day one and our last day before and after check in and check out. Breakfast had many options. The price was price was great for all these amenities!

Near Hallgrimskirkja Church and within 10 minutes walk to downtown and Central bus station the guesthouse is in great location. Lovely breakfast with warm breads in the morning. My room had a kitchenette which allowed me to make some meals (money saving as eating out is expensive).
