Excellent hostel! Really convenient location in Reykjavik. Super close from Hallgrimskirkja (church). The room was clean and spacious. Every person had plenty of outlet, which was great for us with multiple devices that need nightly charging. The room got a lot of evening sun (June), so we needed to keep the window open to stay cool throughout the night. The shower rooms were conveniently located, and were available pretty much anytime we needed to use them. The kitchen had a fairly spacious dining area, but there's only one sink, so we needed to wait for our turn to do the dishes. Three fridges to keep our food refrigerated, but they were always pretty full (we found just enough space to put our food in). The code to enter the building was sent in a timely manner, so the check-in went very smoothly. Other guests were considerate, and we didn't have any issues with noises at night. (We stayed for 2 nights.)

Nice city stay

The location is great, beds were comfy and it was very clean. There is another hostel in the same building so make sure you find the right door for Baron's.

Location is excellent thats why i stayed there for the 2nd time. But this time my experince was terrible. Lot of people..bathrooms were nasty, not really clean, rarely will find any stuff member. If you reprot to any issue they dont care. My phone charger and some small items went missing as housekeeping took them. I had a buy all these items which cost me extra money and nothing is cheap in Iceland.

Baron’s hostel was amazing for the most part. The only issues I had with it was the elevator is the only access point but at one point the elevator broke/ needed maintenance so accessing the building was difficult. The other thing was the smell was a little disturbing but overall it was a great place and easy to walk around and have as a living access point in Iceland!

Considering Baron’s is a hostel, my teen and I felt safe and comfortable during our 2 night stay. The hostel was clean and offered us everything we needed. The location is fantastic. Parking is free. We went to the affordable pool / hot tubs next door and loved them.

First experience with a hostel. I had a single room which was nice. Fairly quiet-was next to the elevator so did have some noise from that. Kitchen area had a great view. People respectful. Easy walk to bus stop 8.

This is a good option to stay in town. Everything else is very expensive. The place has a share kitchen and dinning room area which helps saving money on food if you are willing to prepare your own food since restaurants are very expensive in the area. Bathroom and showers are clean as well as beds. 3 blocks away from the main street in town. Safe and quiet at night. Overall, a good option. Thank you!

As a solo traveler for a week in Iceland, I really felt safe at Barons hostel! There were plenty of showers and bathrooms that were always kept spotless, everyone was respectful of shared spaces and nighttime was so quiet by 9pm on everyday! Within walking distance to tour bus stops, rainbow street and plenty of places to eat or get groceries. Don’t forget to check out the public pools next door! I only wish that people maybe didn’t camp out in the kitchen during busy meal times, sometimes there wasn’t a space to eat while others worked on computers or just socialized. Otherwise absolutely fantastic stay and I highly recommend!

Typical Hostel setup

Typical hostel, but hotel prices (welcome to Iceland). Bare minimum in rooms. Shared bathrooms/toilets also pretty basic. No place for clothing, hooks broken off. Shared kitchen with everything needed. Not really any lounge area.

Customer service was good and staff was very helpful. Kitchens were clean and had everything you needed. The only thing is the cold showers if you don’t want to smell like sulfur from the geothermal heating. But otherwise, highly recommend it.
