Reykjavik EDITION

Our experience at the Edition was 10/10 ~ from the moment we arrived until check out. The staff were amazing and so friendly! We spent one night here after driving the ring road and it did not disappoint. The atmosphere of the hotel was great from the lobby bar, to the roof and the Tides restaurant. The food and drinks were fantastic. The room was super cozy and the bed was very comfortable - we loved it. After dinner we arrived back to our room with a lovely hand written note and two face masks for us to try out. The spa was such a nice touch and we spent half of the afternoon there. In the morning we went to the cafe which was delicious and walked along the water. We hope to be back soon!!!

Amazing location - very close to everywhere we wanted to walk around and see. Room had radiant floor heating and was always comfortable. Staff were very helpful and friendly.

First time visiting Iceland and one of the best hotels and experiences I’ve ever had! Hotel was spotless, staff were amazingly helpful, friendly and proactive in ensuring a fantastic experience! Without any hesitation, and I’m picky, I would highly recommend the Reykjavík Edition. Truly helped to make our vacation in Iceland a wonderful experience!

We had an incredible stay at The Reykjavik EDITION as a group of 8 across 3 rooms, and it truly exceeded expectations from start to finish. The location is unbeatable—right on the water and perfectly central, making it easy to explore the city while still enjoying those stunning waterfront views. The atmosphere is unapologetically boujee in the best way—stylish, elevated, and vibrant without feeling overdone. The rooms were beautifully designed and extremely comfortable, with standout touches like heated bathroom floor tiles that made a big difference after long days out. Everything was impeccably clean—honestly some of the cleanest hotel rooms we’ve experienced. While I’m a Marriott Titanium member, I’d say this property definitely caters to a higher-end traveler, but the experience matches that level. It feels worth it for a special trip. Despite being lively, the hotel manages a great balance with noise—quiet and relaxing when you want it, but energetic and fun when you step into the social spaces. Service was a highlight. The team went above and beyond to celebrate my bachelorette—they surprised me with chocolates and even a “trophy wife” sash in the room, which was such a fun and thoughtful touch. That level of attention to detail didn’t go unnoticed. Amenities were fantastic—one of my friends especially loved the spa. And the energy at both the rooftop and bar was perfect for our group. The servers were not only attentive but genuinely fun and engaging, helping get us into a celebratory mood each night. Overall, an amazing stay and a perfect choice for a group celebration. Would absolutely come back.

I wanted to update my review of The Reykjavik EDITION because unfortunately my experience after checkout has been extremely disappointing. I am still waiting for the return of my incidental deposit, which was approximately $900 USD, over a month after checkout. I initially contacted the hotel and was told it could take around three weeks. It has now been almost over four weeks, and despite multiple follow-up emails, communication has become inconsistent. Sometimes I receive a response, and other times I receive no reply at all. The overall message I’ve been given is essentially that there is nothing they can do. For a luxury hotel at this price point, this level of post-stay customer service is extremely disappointing and stressful, especially when such a large amount of money is involved. I understand that bank processing delays can happen, but leaving guests without clear communication or meaningful assistance for nearly a month is not acceptable. I truly wanted to love this hotel, especially because I stayed there during a very important milestone birthday trip to Iceland, and while I was there the customer service was great, but this unresolved issue has unfortunately overshadowed much of the experience.
