This is is not a terrible hotel and it has a great location, but I would never stay there again because I don't trust them. I feel the manager is not overly burdened with ethics which is surprising because you don't expect it in Iceland- a very honest law-abiding place. We had reservations for 6 nights booked six months in... more

Before we went to Iceland I read some of the reviews on here and was slightly worried about our stay. But when we arrived I was pleasantly surprised! I found all the staff to be friendly and help with flights, directions etc. The place was simple, including the breakfast and the rooms, but all fine for what we wanted and... more

- The rooms are filthy and small - bathroom has many problems - the breakfast is exactly the same poor one every day - they use toilet tissue for napkins - there's jerk at the front desk during the night shift. more

On arrival to the Metropolitan we had the wave for attention infront of the so called receptionist who didn't welcome us in any way and barely said 2 words. We were then sent to a room which was twin rather than the booked double - this at least we could accept considering the small price paid. However things were only... more

We weren´t expecting much as we read the reviews from this site beforehand. Still it was a bit of a shock how bad the hotel was run. Location is the only reason to go there. Everything in the hotel is either weird or just in bad shape. Cleaning is done by a young girl with young brother or son like... more

Hotel is in a great location, 2 blocks from the city center. Rooms are small, even compared to the usual rooms in Europe. Most of the staff were friendly with exception of one man who seemed to have an attitude toward everyone in general. Not a bad place to stay. But I would suggest paying a little more at one... more

We went to Iceland through Airmiles to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and husbands 50th birthday. This hotel made it the worst experience ever. Bedrooms can only be described as closets. Booked a double got a twin. Moved to a double where i had either to climb over my husband or shuffle to bottom of bed! Moved to a triple... more

Imagine traveling 12 hours to get to Iceland - your dream vacation with your two children. Waterfalls, volcanoes, geysers, hot springs, and.... your very own (i.e., "private") hotel entrance covered in graffiti! Welcome to the Hotel Metropolitan! Among other amenities you will find: grown men in their underwear throwing up outside of your hotel window (which has no shade to... more

Location is great and we were able to find parking easily every time nearby. we didn't expect much based on the reviews and it was an average place, most of the staff is helpful, some are a little indifferent. there are mini fridges in the rooms but they don't work. we bought beer and then realized this so we were... more

Worst things about this hotel? * It's a bit shabby and not very clean (but not dirty enough to make your skin crawl). * The only service our room received during our three night stay was the addition of an extra toilet roll - bins weren't emptied, towels replenished, etc. * The pillows were floppier than a spaniel's ears -... more
