Hotel Odinsve has welcomed guests since 1984 and sits in a quiet part of Reykjavík’s old town, where the surrounding streets are named after gods and goddesses from Nordic mythology. The hotel focuses on a relaxed atmosphere and personal attention, and the neighborhood has many restaurants, cafés, and bars within walking distance. Hallgrímskirkja church is about a 6-minute walk away, Harpa concert hall about 10 minutes, and the Old Harbour about 15 minutes. Two sister properties, Óðinsvé Hotel Apartments and Rey Apartments, offer apartment stays in the city center. Housekeeping is provided on request rather than daily, an approach the hotel says reduces water and chemical use, and guests can ask for daily cleaning, fresh towels, or linen changes at the front desk.
Rooms & Suites
The hotel has 50 rooms, ranging from single rooms and suites to two-bedroom apartments. All rooms have heating, internet access, satellite TV, a telephone, a kettle with a tea and coffee set, a clothes rack, and hardwood or parquet floors, and a wake-up service is available. Each room has a private bathroom with a bath or shower, towels, and a hairdryer. Children under 12 stay free when they use existing beds, and extra beds are available in some room types for an added fee.
Hotel Amenities & Facilities
Snaps, the hotel’s restaurant, is on the ground floor and uses carefully sourced ingredients in a homey setting. Breakfast is served there daily from 07:00 to 10:00. The hotel has one meeting room of 16 sq m (172 sq ft) that seats 10 to 12 people and comes with Wi-Fi, a flat-screen display, and catering. The front desk is staffed 24 hours a day and can help with tour bookings, car rentals, and dining suggestions. Private transfers from Keflavík International Airport can be arranged through the front desk. Early check-in and late check-out depend on availability.
