Canopy by Hilton ¸é±ð²â°ìÂá²¹±¹Ã­°ì City Centre

¸é±ð²â°ìÂá²¹±¹Ã­°ì, Iceland

Comprising six historical houses that were once part of a furniture factory and later used as a music and cultural venue, this hotel is designed to feel more characterful and homely in style than other properties in Hilton’s portfolio. Located in the heart of Reykjavik just a short walk from the bars, cafés, restaurants, and shops of Laugavegur Street, you’re met with a contemporary Scandinavian decor theme throughout.

The individually designed rooms and suites are stylish and spacious, with all featuring local artworks and soothing blue and gray hues to reflect Iceland’s ocean and volcanic rock respectively. Modern amenities include flat-screen TVs, Wi-Fi, Nespresso machines, comfortable beds with memory foam mattresses, and en suite bathrooms with toiletries. There’s also accessible rooms that offer helpful extras such as audio and strobe alerts, vibrating alarms, and lowered furniture.

Elsewhere, you’ll find a restaurant for an imaginative menu of modern Icelandic cuisine, a bistro and bar for afternoon drinks, snacks, and cocktails, and a café for all-day sandwiches, pastries, and coffee. There’s also a basement gym, complimentary bike hire, and a team of helpful staff who can advise on the city’s best attractions.

OUR OPINION:

For those who want to stay in the heart of ¸é±ð²â°ìÂá²¹±¹Ã­°ì, this contemporary hotel comprised of six historic buildings has a homely feel and plenty of character. We love the graffiti paintings by local artists.
