101 HOTEL, REYKJAVIK

THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN REYKJAVIK

Sleek and immaculately appointed, the 101 Hotel in Reykavik was one of the first, and is still one of the finest, of Iceland’s boutique hotels.

Owned by interior designer Ingibjörg S. Pálmadóttir, the 101 Hotel has completely transformed since its humble, office building beginnings. Decorated in a chic palette of black, white and slate grey, the property today is a stylish haven full of clean, modern lines and contemporary Icelandic artwork. It even has its own gallery adorned with the work of local artists. Set in the busy heart of downtown Reykjavik, the city’s attractions are at your feet, including the Icelandic Opera House, National Gallery and Museum.

Minimalist yet comfortable, the open-plan guestrooms contrast glossy black furnishings with crisp white Italian linens, with the thoughtful addition of heated floors. Freestanding baths fill with geothermal waters, but you can also unwind in the steam bath or Jacuzzi in the basement spa. The futuristic, glass-roofed restaurant serves a mix of modern Icelandic and international dishes. The adjacent bar & lounge draws guests and locals alike with its trendy atmosphere, tree-trunk tables and wood-burning fireplace.
