My experience at the Loft Hostel was exceptional! Firstly the staff are very friendly. The location of the hostel is awesome, right in city center next to rainbow road, great location for an affordable price. I stayed in a 8person shared room and had no issues during my stay. They also have a kitchen accessible to guests, where you can have a bin with your own food in the fridge, as well as free food that other travels leave behind. Very walkable to other locations and grocery is just down the street. I never had to use a taxi. Lastly, the bar and shared space at the top floor was very cozy, nice to sit up there in the early mornings and at night hang out with other travelers and play some games and get drinks at their bar. I highly recommend the Loft Hi Hostel as I believe you will have a great time. I was a solo traveler and had no trouble making friends during my stay! Thanks for having me Loft!

Excellent experience! Had a double/twin with private ensuite bathroom. The facilities were clean. My only 2 notes: the shower curtain was not quite long enough so water did escape and the floor became wet, and the timer on the motion sensor for the light was very short - I had to keep reaching out to turn it back on. Other than that, no complaints!

I’ve never stayed in a hostel before, so this was my first experience. I spent two nights at “Loft – Hi Hostel” in Reykjavik, and it felt like a 7-star stay. The hostel is centrally located, making it a great choice in Reykjavik’s pricey hotel market. With restaurants, bars, and shopping nearby, and the bus station not too far away, getting around was a breeze.

The interior of the hostel was immaculate, and the kitchen was impressive, especially the “Free” basket where guests could leave items they didn’t need for others. The hostel also had a small library and an in-house bar. I stayed in a six-person room with an attached bathroom, and my roommates were friendly, respectful, and cool. One of them, a frequent guest, told me it was the best hostel in Reykjavik, and I couldn’t agree more.

My experience was incredibly fulfilling, and I returned to Canada with warm memories of both the hostel and Iceland.

Excellent hostel for solo travelers visiting Iceland that want to make some friends. I had such a great time here. I slept well in the 6 bed room. Wifi reception is good. I loved the rooftop bar with the solo travelers meetup. Location is perfect too.
