STYLISH HOTEL NEAR THE BANKS OF LAKE TJORNIN
An ultra-modern hotel that’s just a five-minute stroll from the tranquil waters of Lake Tjörnin, Hotel Reykjavík Saga first opened its doors in July 2022, and has been welcoming guests ever since. Expect to see everything that Iceland’s capital city has to offer if you choose to stay here.
Visitors from around the world flock to Lake Tjörnin to take in the sights, and, hopefully, grab a photo or two of the diverse species of birds, fauna, and wildlife that call it home. Stroll along its banks and you’ll come across beautiful sculptures and serene spots of natural beauty – striking a perfect balance between the tranquillity of nature and tasteful urban design. What’s more, Tjörnin freezes over in the winter, creating the opportunity for locals to use it as their own giant ice-skating rink. A spectacular sight if you’re visiting Reykjavík during the chillier months..
If you’re planning to see the Northern Lights at some point a quick stop at the Aurora Reykjavík is in order. Just a 15-minute stroll from your hotel, The Northern Lights Centre’s a hub of knowledge and interactivity that’ll keep you entertained for hours on end. Included in your visit is a guided tour, a Northern Lights movie, a virtual reality experience, and the best photographs of the phenomenon ever captured – all projected onto a huge screen in super high-quality definition. An ideal appetiser to the main course of taking a guided tour and seeing the real thing for yourself.
Reykjavík is a bustling cosmopolitan city, so you’re surrounded by upper-class eateries and high-end dining establishments. You’ll be amazed by not just the quality of the ingredients – which tend to be locally sourced with plenty of vegetarian options – but the eye-catching presentation, too. As Iceland’s main seaport, it’s all about the seafood here, so expect plenty of restaurants serving up the freshest fish, langoustines, and shellfish, occasionally served over ice to enhance their natural flavour.
Too spoilt for choice? The Art Deco stylings of Froken – your hotel’s restaurant and bar – is there to tempt you in with its diverse surf and turf menu of fresh seafood, steak, and lamb cuisine. There’s a hotel spa, too, just the thing for an invigorating steam bath or massage after a fun-packed day of exploring the capital.
