Truly a 5 star hotel, and we travel A LOT!!!! Our only stay ever at an Edition; we are typically Ritz, St. Regis and Mandarin people. This is my 3rd stay here in less than a year, and all stays have been great. This one was special! Celebrated our 25 year wedding anniversary with our kids, and the hotel went above and beyond. We booked 2 rooms cash rate through AMEX Fine Hotels & Resorts. I am a Marriott Ambassador. Hotel had BOTH of our rooms ready at 9 AM!!! Coordinated with my Ambassador. They upgraded one of the rooms to the Corner Suite, which was just stunning! Bottle of Prosecco and gin in the room. Waved parking, comp'd breakfast for 5 each day. Kristina Kretschmer, the manager, personally greeted us and worked to ensure we had an amazing stay. The hotel itself is gorgeous, the breakfast buffet fantastic, and excellent amenities. Bathrooms awesome with great pressure. But ALL the staff are really the 5-star show! They almost all remembered our names, and our previous stays and story. They remembered we are obsessed with their house-made granola bars, and made sure to give us a box of them each day! Parking was a cinch and valets were courteous and prompt. Truly THE place to stay in Iceland! We will be back again likely in another 6 months. Love it!!!!

Lovely hotel but beware the rip off, very expensive facility fee. They charge you over $50 per person and then offer a credit in the restaurant, but they failed to apply the credit and even through they now admit they should have (and sent me an updated bill) they applied a much lower credit to my credit card and now have gone silent. obviously this is a thing that they do all the time, as they didn't seem at all surprised or even apologetic when i complained about it.

Our stay at The Reykjavik Edition was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. The location is perfect right in the heart of Reykjavik and within easy walking distance of the city's attractions, restaurants, and waterfront. The hotel itself is beautiful, stylish, and exceptionally well maintained. What truly sets this hotel apart, however, is its incredible team. Every single person we encountered was kind, welcoming, professional, and genuinely eager to help. A special thank you to Kristina, the manager, who assisted us when we experienced an issue with the hot water. She handled everything with care, efficiency, and warmth, and was simply lovely throughout our stay. We would also like to recognize Elizabeth from Tides Restaurant. She is truly exceptional passionate, warm, thoughtful, and incredibly dedicated to her guests. She made us feel cared for from the moment we arrived. When we had a 14-hour day trip planned, she thoughtfully prepared an amazing goodie bag for us, which was such a kind and appreciated gesture. Every morning, Elizabeth and Kinga took wonderful care of us. Kinga was always friendly, attentive, and provided outstanding service with a smile. We stayed for six nights and had a fantastic experience. The combination of a beautiful hotel, a perfect location, and an extraordinary team made our visit unforgettable. Thank you to everyone at The Reykjavik Edition for making our stay so special. We hope to return one day.

This was our first visit to Iceland, and we selected this hotel primarily because it is part of the Marriott Bonvoy group. As an Ambassador Elite member, I was pleased to receive an upgrade to a suite overlooking the Harpa Concert Hall and Conference Centre. The room was comfortable and well appointed, particularly the spacious and well-equipped bathroom, as well as the additional toilet located near the entrance walkway. However, one disappointment was that the hotel did not offer Ambassador Elite members the option of selecting breakfast as an amenity. As we arrived late in the evening, we had dinner at Tides and returned for breakfast the following morning, although the quality of the food did not quite meet our expectations. For the remainder of our stay, we chose to dine at a nearby food court within walking distance of the hotel. The property is centrally located, with dining options and shopping areas easily accessible on foot. Overall, this is one of the more luxurious hotels in Reykjavik, and despite some shortcomings in the dining experience, we would consider returning should we visit this remarkable “land of fire and ice” again.

First time here. Stayed based upon reviews, location, and Marriott status. As an Ambsassor level they treated me very well. I had two rooms. Rooms were very nice. Blackout shades, comfy beds. The suite (we had a corner suite) was amazing. Huge. Hotel is in a great location. Staff were awesome. We had drinks at Tides. Only real issue we had was the rooms were warm. We could not get them below 20 even with the staff telling us they were adjusting them centrally. I just don't think Iceland does anythign cold. The windows DO open and helped maybe just a bit. I would stay again.
