The Old Bicycle Shop

In the heart of Reykjavík’s 101 district, this timber‑framed guesthouse sits on a quiet side street a two‑minute stroll from Laugavegur and under 10 minutes to Hallgrímskirkja. Harpa and the harbour are an easy walk, so it’s a perfect city base for sightseeing, museums and short breaks. Family‑friendly and ideal for solo travellers or couples looking to explore on foot.

Housed in a listed 1905 traditional Reykjavik townhouse, the property mixes contemporary Nordic colours and furnishings with a 2,000‑book library — popular with film crews as a location. Six individually decorated rooms feature small kitchens with stovetops and dishwashers, down comforters and Egyptian cotton sheets, blackout drapes, electric kettles and bathrooms with deep soaking tubs and separate showers. Weekly housekeeping keeps things easy after long city walks.

Complimentary wireless internet across the property, a cozy library to flip through, luggage storage and on‑site self‑parking (charges apply). Simple, comfortable touches throughout make it a great city escape — wake up to central Reykjavík mornings and step straight into cafés, shops and galleries.

Free Wi‑Fi for staying connected, plus luggage storage and paid self‑parking onsite for guests traveling by car.
