This spacious 1-bedroom flat in central Reykjavik sleeps up to 6 +1, overlooks a playground and is across the road from one of the city’s best thermal swimming pools. Decorated in Scandinavian spartan style, with white walls, white linen and wooden floors, it has a large bedroom, spacious living room with piano and harmonium and a kitchen and bathroom. A cot is available for young children. We love the views from the balconies, of the playground in one direction and a patchwork of colored rooftops and sea beyond it in another. It’s an easy place to stay in the city with kids - a short stroll from the rugged coastline in one direction and the shops and city’s cultural attractions in the other.
What we love
- Great views: overlooking the kids playground at the back of the building and city rooftops as far as the sea at the front
- Vesturbaejarlaug, an outdoor thermal swimming pool, is just across the street, with a kids pool and adult pool, saunas and hot tubs
- Large living space with views of the city plus dining table, piano, harmonium and space to play
- Mattresses for up to 4 people for use in the living space
- Kitchen with fridge, stove and oven
- Black tiled bathroom with shower and bath
- Crib, high chair and toys available

101 Reykjavík, Reykjavík
The heart of the city
The centre of Reykjavik is pretty, with multicolored corrugated iron-clad houses, restaurants and shops. Feed the ducks and the geese at Tjornin, the city pond, or explore the museums and shoreline - staying in 101 Reykjavik means that you’re in the heart of the city, walking distance from boat trips at the old harbor too.
