Information about staying in Iceland

Read these important travel tips before booking a hotel in Iceland

What cities in Iceland are best to stay in?

If you seek convenient and reliable connections to attractions in Iceland, consider finding accommodation in Reykjavik. The city boasts a good public bus system featuring frequent services to various metropolises and attractions in the country. Whether you need to access a specific destination or wish to explore Reykjavik like a local, the city's public transportation system is a cost-effective and enjoyable option. If you look to explore the city via public buses, consider purchasing the Reykjavik City Card. The card entitles you to unlimited rides on city buses and access to main sites and discounts at stores and restaurants. Alternatively, you can purchase a single journey ticket, which equates to a single fare within the city. Some of the best Iceland hotels in Reykjavik include Grand Hotel Reykjavik and Eyja Guldsmeden Hotel.

What are the best things to do in Iceland?

The Blue Lagoon is arguably the most popular paid attraction in Iceland, located in the Reykjanes peninsula. This attraction's proximity to Iceland's capital makes it an ideal pit break even if you are in the country for a brief stay. The Blue Lagoon boasts awe-inspiring scenery, featuring a unique combination of steaming milky blue water with the black lava rock backdrop. Soaking in the lagoon's warm, soothing waters can be an exhilarating experience, especially between June and August. Some of the best hotels in Iceland near the Blue Lagoo are Northern Light Inn and Hotel Volcano Grindavik. Another popular option is Vatnajökull National Park, the largest in the country. This park offers stunning landscapes formed by rivers, glacial ice, and natural phenomena, including volcanic and geothermal activity. The dominant features of the park are vast canyons, spectacular waterfalls, and lush wilderness. The park is busiest during summer when visitors flock to enjoy its thrilling outdoors. Finding cheap hotels in Iceland close to the park is well recommended. Some of the great options include Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon and Hali Country Hotel.

What cities in Iceland have the best nightlife?

If you are in Iceland for wild nightlife and food, Reykjavík is the place for you. The city may seem quaint and laidback during the day, but it comes to life once the sun goes down. During the night, the streets of downtown Reykjavík fill with party-hoppers and remain wild throughout the night. The city features several nightlife venues, from dancing clubs to bars, cafes, restaurants, and lounges. The venues are close as the city is relatively small, and they don't charge entry fees. Therefore, you can easily bar hop without any difficulties, making it easy for adventurous spirits. Also, the city boasts a vibrant, diverse culinary scene, featuring a plethora of dining options, from fine dining establishments to informal café services. Try out innovative seafood cuisine at Fish Markt or savor classic Icelandic delicacies with a contemporary twist at Apotek. For traditional Icelandic dishes, check out Matur og Drykkur, right at the heart of the city center. Some of the best hotels placing you within walking distance to the city's nightlife include Apotek Hotel by Keahotels and Kvosin Downtown Hotel.

What cities in Iceland are best for art and history?

If you seek to immerse yourself into Iceland's history, head to Reykjavík, where you can stay at hotels like Reykjavik Centrum. The city features various historical sites and attractions narrating the stories of the countries past. At the Saga Museum, you may discover much about the Norsemen and their effects on Icelandic history. The museum features exhibits that bring the Norsemen's early occupation of the region to life. You will encounter wax sculptures of these ferocious warriors and costumed Norsemen walking through the grounds. Another great historic site in the city is the National Museum of Iceland. The museum focuses on the Settlement Era, explaining the story of the chieftains and showcasing artifacts like swords, Viking drinking horns, and a bronze sculpture of Thor. Entry to the museum requires a small entry fee, and the museum is busiest between September and mid-April.
