Latest Review for Reykjavik Backpackers

This is a Trusted Review. Why?

Right down town. Standard small hostel rooms, but clean as a whistle. Great staff, even the poor bastards on overnight were helpful and smiling. FUll of advice etc. Room I was in fronted onto the street which was a bit noisy friday and saturday nights/sunday morning, so beware of that if its important to you.

This is a Trusted Review. Why?

Great location, and very helpful and friendly staff. Takk (Thanks, in Islenska). Right on party street, so unless you want absolute quiet at night, it's a steal of a deal. Would do it all over again.

Directions

Arriving at Iceland's international airport in Keflavík take the FLYBUS to Reykjavik. Tell the driver you are headed to Reykjavik Backpackers and you'll be taken to the doorstep. The FLYBUS will first drop you off at BSI, the main bus terminal in Reykjavik city center and from there you'll be taken directly to the hostel by a connecting bus.

The FLYBUS operates in connection with all arriving flights and your seat is always guaranteed.

Other transport within the city center is not necessary since you're already there.
