Holiday rentals in Reykjavik, Iceland

If you are interested in holiday rentals in Reykjavik that will give you easy access to the local nightlife, then you will be pleased to know that there are plenty of holiday rentals in the city. The main street where people go partying in Reykjavik is called Laugavegur, a hip and contemporary area of the city where you can find clubs to party and bars to sit and talk. A stay at the B14 Apartments and Rooms are well-placed so that you can walk to the area and try out some of the more famous bars like Prikið, which plays ‘90s hip hop and has two storeys where you can find people dancing. Another bar worth a visit is Kaffibarim, which is a little more relaxed, and is often somewhere where you can start the evening with a few beers and a chat before starting to dance as the night progresses.

If you plan on visiting Reykjavik with your family and your children then you will be pleased to know that there are plenty of family-friendly activities that you can do during your stay. We recommend that you stay in Reykjavik holiday rentals such as the Odinsve Hotel Apartments as they have family rooms, and TV networks for children, and even have some outdoor play equipment. The accommodation is close to the Hallgrimskirkja Oservation Tower, where you can ride the elevator to the top and enjoy 360-degree panoramic views of the city. If you stay at the Reykjavik Residence Suites, they offer babysitting and childcare services, should you need them, and it is well-placed so that you can go to the Reykjavik Saga Museum. The museum is self-guided, with an audio recording that describes the history of Iceland. Some parts can be quite gruesome, but when you reach the end, there is an interactive section where your children can dress up and pose for photos as berserkers and Viking warriors of old.
