The hotel provides access to the spa at the neighboring Borg hotel, which includes a fitness centre, sauna, steam room, and soaking pool. On-site facilities include a business centre and meeting/banquet facilities. The 24-hour front desk offers concierge service, luggage storage, and a tour desk.

Location & Transport

Laugavegur shopping street is a 2-minute walk from the hotel, and Hallgrímskirkja Church is a 10-minute walk away. Reykjavík Harbour is 650 meters away. The hotel is close to bus stop 3, where excursion pickups occur.

“Apotek Hotel cleverly blends historical charm with modern luxury, occupying a beautifully repurposed apothecary building in the heart of Reykjavik; its prime location puts guests steps from major attractions like Hallgrímskirkja Church and Laugavegur shopping street. I found the combination of the building's original details and contemporary design particularly appealing, alongside the hotel's dedication to high-quality Icelandic cuisine. It's a sophisticated choice for experiencing Reykjavik's culture.”
