Hotel Review
Hotel Borg, Reykjavík, Iceland
A fantastic residence with a ritzy persona and an Art Deco vibe. Conveniently located so you can walk to the highlights of Reykjavík, it's ideal for anyone who wants to stay in style capturing the essence of the city with ease. Whilst the best eateries are moments away, the in-house restaurant is a must - service is seamless and the dishes on offer are smart in appearance and big on taste, utilising fresh local ingredients such as the highly regarded Icelandic seafood and fish. The rooms are chic and comfortable, flooded with natural light from large windows, with some overlooking Parliament Square. The spa is a serene, secluded space to refresh and retreat.
