Contrary to the negative reviews, Natura offers a lovely breakfast buffet, fitness room, free wifi, and spa. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Can booktours directly from them.
Get the bus card from the hotel to head to downtown Reykjavik. It's free of charge provided you return the card. Remember to get the bus schedule as well. The bus stop is just across the hotel.
Basic rooms and a little walk (20mins or free bus ride) from town but beautiful and trendy interior, fantastic breakfast and great value! Ideal as a base for adventures
Don't listen to Drew's tip, RE: breakfast. They offer a great selection of local foods, including Gluten-free options. Fruits, veggies, breads, pastries, etc! Very good.
Quite dated, but still well kept. Every thing else is far. But we were on vacation and Reykjavik is a nice walk in spring! Lots of good food in town! Taxis are expensive like everything else .
Natura Spa here was great. I had massage then used pool and sauna facilities. Book an appointment for tourist helicopter ride and go here afterwards. Perfect.
As of April 2011, there is heavy remodeling going on. The breakfast isn't that great, but overall the hotel is great. It's a bit of a walk to the city center but there is a free shuttle.
Avoid the hotel breakfast - it's truly terrible. The are lots of great cafés are coffee shops in the city centre, around 20 minutes walk. Head towards the spire.
