This was our first hostel in Iceland - in fact, our first hostel ever. Before that, I had always preferred hotels, but during the road trip through Iceland there isn't really much of a choice. We were arriving to Keflavik airport around midnight, and needed a place to sleep before heading down along the south-east coast. Going to Reykjavik would... More

Wanted to charge 1000 kr (like $8!) extra for the duvet, which is an abomination in a cold country! Hard to find, in a warehouse district a few miles from airport. I had a rental car, so can't comment about taxis. Absolutely no charm: just a crowded through-place. The staff man was efficient at 2 am, to his credit. Sleep... More

This was the worst place I've ever stayed in Iceland. Looked more like ex-army barracks, the advertised hot tub doesn't exist any more, apparently it is broken. I had hoped to catch a bus at 7am to get to the airport, but buses don't start that early in the morning, so I had to pay for a taxi 2500 Kronas.... More

not very good service to airport better to be prepared to hitchhike if you are staying here for short way to the airport but if it is not busy time you can ask reception to give you ride nice walking route along the shore

We had great service from all other Icelandic hostels except this one. There were no staff on duty for the 2 days of our stay. We phoned the reception number to arrange for someone to come so we could pay our bill, but it took another call and 2 hours before someone arrived. As for the facilities, the bathrooms smelt...

I stayed here last week, and I really liked this hostel. Someone's earlier review said that Fit Hostel is hard to find. It's EASY to find. Just get off the exit to Njarvik, and drive toward town. After you pass the lighted trail by a small lake, it's there on the right, with a big sign--JET HOSTEL. Hard to miss.... More

We really enjoyed Fit Hostal. Our advice: don't waste time at City Hostel! After a really bad, noisy and uncomfortable night at City Hostel in downtown Reykjavik, we moved to Fit Hostel in Njardvik for three days. We were at the end of ten day trip in Iceland, and we were really happy to finally find a place that was... More

I was traweling with a friend on a trip arond iceland and stayed in Fit hostel. It is convinient to stay ther the first nigth and the last because the airport is so close to the hostel if you are travelling far. It was clean but no luxsus and fair price.

Don't expect too much; its best asset is its proximity to the airport. A very primitive ugly-looking place, with small rooms, located in an industrial area. Few washrooms. Helpful staff, though. Breakfast OK.

Like many, we booked this hostel because we had an early morning flight out of Keflavik. It was extremely difficult to find, and we eventually found it sandwiched in an industrial estate behind a building that is similar but more dilapidated. We kept asking people in Nardvik, and nobody even knew about it. One person said they thought it closed... More
