A quaint hotel with modern flair!
Hotel Lotus is a wonderful hotel. Its modern updated style is nice and the room and beds are very comfortable. It has a nice selection of breakfast foods and is location within walking distance of downtown Reykjavik. We chatted with the owner and she was very nice. She provided recommendations of things to do and see.

Home away from home
The Hotel Lotus is a great hotel and has a modern feel. This was our 2nd time staying at Hotel Lotus. At the beginning of our trip to Iceland we spoke with the Owner of the hotel and told her we were coming back at the end of our trip and how we really liked the accommodations and location. The Owner had upgraded our rooms for our return which was really nice. Unfortunately, we had to return early from our tour because of the bad weather, but it was really nice having the upgraded room for our now two day stay. We highly recommend this Hotel, the staff and the owner were wonderful, the rooms were great especially the heated bathroom floor, the beds and pillows were comfortable, and the breakfast selections were good.

A great hotel in a quiet neighbourhood with plenty of free parking. The staff and breakfast were excellent. It's an approx 30 min walk to the centre of town which was fine for us.

Staff here was very helpful, Allowing me to check in early, showing me highlights on a map of Reykjavík, and making a take away breakfast for a very early flight. The hotel is quiet, clean, uncluttered, modern. Decent breakfast and coffee and tea available at all times, I had a great stay and would come here again

The hotel was extremely clean and well kept. The art was unique and add to the charm.
The staff were lovely and very personable.
The chocolates in the reception and offering all day coffee and cake in the lounge area was was an extra nice touch.
Only recompendation is to turn the heat down a bit.

A nice, clean, and quiet hotel. We thought it was unique and great that each breakfast place setting had its own tongs for selecting food items.

This is a smaller boutique hotel. It was probably the best hotel room I ever stayed at. The room was luxurious and cozy with moody lighting and modern decor. The washroom felt like a spa - heated floors / towel warmer. Breakfast is included in your stay and it was delicious. Wish I stayed 2 nights instead of 1!

The host was fantastic. It was a nice boutique style hotel. It has an excellent breakfast and I heard multiple people complementing the host over it. I arrived early on my first day, and the host was able to accommodate me with an early check-in, which was quite nice. I would definitely recommend this hotel, and already have to several friends of mine
