The guesthouse is on top of a hill not far from the Church that looks like a spaceship. The hosts are absolutely charming and so helpful. It's a bright and cosy place to stay in town. It is small and friendly. Breakfast is set on the top floor in front of a large bay window with a stunning view on... More

We spend 3 nights at the guest house at the start of October - their winter season. We were not aware that it is no longer run as a guest house in the winter but used as accommodation by foreign exchange students. As a result the kitchen and fridge weren't really a viable option as they were always full, and... More

My wife and I stayed at the Guesthouse one night, arriving on a very early flight. It is nice and very clean and the owner is friendly, but I cannot recommend it for a stay. The Guesthouse is simply too expensive. The rooms are very small, the bathroom and shower are tiny. The breakfast room, while pleasant, is too small... More

Perfectly located (two blocks) to all the walkable downtown shopping, sites, and dining. We got a room with breakfast for two with a shared bathroom and a big common kitchen in the cottage behind the house for 97 euros. The owner was very nice and helpful, let us keep baggage there after checkout so we wouldn't have to lug it... More

We stayed here for 4 nights and only have good things to say about it. The owner is wonderful - helpful, friendly and kind. We stayed in 3 different rooms (as we returned ater visiting various parts of Iceland) and every room was spotlessly clean, light and airy. The breakfast was a traditional European affair taken in a lovely little... More

This was the perfect guesthouse - quiet, great central location (close to many bars, restaurants and the bus station), very clean, nice breakfast to start the day, and a helpful manager. We had a double room with a private bathroom - not a huge space, but plenty of room for two. I would definitely stay here again. More

Literally just returned (5/8/11) from seven days in Reykjavik staying at the Odinn. Great value for money, costing 840 euros. We had a triple room next to the communal kitchen. It appeared that we were the only guests using the kitchen so effectively it was like staying in a small flat. The Odinn is spotlessly clean and all the facilities... More

We appreciated very much the kindness of the Odinn-owner who answered very patiently all our questions and who took us to the bus station, so that we could manage to catch the bus to the airport! Besides the guest house is good located and has a very pleasant kitchen or living room! More

Dear guests, Thank you very much for the feed-back and I am glad you enjoyed the stay with us. It was my pleasure to take you to the Bus Terminal in order for you to catch the FlyBus to Keflavik airport. ... so you would not miss the flight back home. Wish you all the best and hope to see... More

Guesthouse Odinn has played a bigger role than we ever believed it would during our trip to Iceland. If you haven't been to Iceland yet, make it happen! The panoramic scenery is breathtaking. I concluded that only poets can do justice to the beauty of this country: they have a magical way of putting words together to bring about feelings.... More
