Radisson Blu Saga Hotel, Reykjavik

Room was a nice size. The hotel is not in the center of town, however, my daughter and I easily walked to City Center every day for shopping and restaurants. Bring your own pillows and towels if possible...towels are coarse and thin, and pillows are extremely flat. Reception is very friendly and helpful. Housekeeping knocks and walks in without giving […] you time to answer. Enjoyed the Northern Lights with the two tours we took (one by bus, other by Jeep). Cold but fun! Read more

The Staff was all kind. Our room was large and enough for two persons. The restaurant during christmas time was closed so that it was very hard to have dinner.

The hotel is good for a tourist or business traveler that is using it as a base to go elsewhere during the day. We used a rental car and there was abundant free parking. The room was decent size by Iceland standards. Included breakfast was average. The in-room safe was large (about 15 x 12 x 10 inches) which was great for computers, cameras, etc. It […] was an easy walk into the center of town, there was a nice bakery a block away. Read more

The room was quite large especially by European standards and had a nice sitting area. It was very clean. The restaurant had a buffet and a large selection of food and they charged me a greatly reduce price for my kids, less than $10 and it included a ice cream bar. The chef in the restaurant even asked me what he could make for the kids. The staff […] was also very helpful. It is a bit of a walk though to town. But that didn't matter because most of the stuff we did we had a pickup from the hotel. Read more

We stayed a week in April for a vacation. The interior looks like it was recently remodeled and was very clean and upscale. The staff were friendly and all of them spoke English. We had a great view of the city from our room. If you use the mini bar/fridge, make sure to keep track of everything you take. We never used it once, but when we checked out […] they tried to charge us $140. When we told them we never used it, they took it off the bill so it wasn't a big deal. Read more

Hotel is well kept up, in a quite location 1/3 mile from downtown (nice walk past the ponds), and has a fairly good fitness room. Clerks/staff are readily available and helpful. Large (by European standards), well lighted rooms, with good blinds to keep early morning sun out in spring/summer. Unless you want to be right downtown, a good choice. I've […] have stayed there 6-7 times and always been pleased. Read more

Finding a nice hotel in Reykjavik is difficult. Most of the hotels in the city center are older and run down, and the noise in the city center is loud during the night (especially on weekends). The Radisson Blu Saga (different than the Radisson Blu 1919 in City Center!) is about a 10-15 minute walk from the center, in a quiet location near the university. […] It is a very nicely-kept hotel with modern amenities and furnishings. The restaurant upstairs is excellent, though pricey. The downstairs restaurant is ok, but better options can be found in the city. Breakfast buffet is ok if included in your room rate, but not worth $27 if you are paying separately. Read more

I was extremely happy with the service at Hotel Saga however at the end I was charged for breakfast... this would have been fine if I wasn't under the impression that it was included for free. Other then the unexpected charge I had a pleasant stay, the hotel is a ten-fifteen min walk to the downtown area.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This hotel was great for us. It was located just a short walk from town, which if you have nice weather is a great walk. The rooms were a decent size and clean. We had a nice night time view from our window. We were pleased with the service we received at the hotel, everyone was very helpful. The breakfast which was included was great to keep eating […] out costs down! We did find the restaurant expensive for other meals though. Overall a great place to stay in a fabulous city! Read more

The elevators were small and narrow, and there did not seem to be enough of them for the size of the hotel. We had to wait quite a long time to use them to get to our room with our lugguge. The 2pm check-in time was quite firm. No early check-in times were allowed, despite the suspicion that rooms were available. The restaurant served an average breakfast […] buffet. The room was clean, comfortable and had good room darkening curtains, which is a bonus because in June, the sun did not set until 11pm. The hotel was only a 15 minute walk to the center of Reykjavik, so was very convenient. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel was very nice, though a little dated. I think there are plans for renovations soon. With everything being so expensive in Iceland, the included breakfast buffet was key. We filled up on this to skip lunch. The staff were extremely helpful as Iceland air lost our baggage and the staff stayed on top of helping us track it. Very convenient, about […] a 5-10min walk to dowtown, but private enough to stay away from the noise. We also really appreciated the travel concierge right in our hotel, making top notch recommendations for tours, etc. The tour buses picked us right up in the lobby everyday. Would definitely recommend! Read more

A nice stay, friendly staff and very helpful. The room could have been cleaner, quite run down and had to ask for my curtains to be rehung. Only 7-10 minute walk to town centre. I would stay here again.

IT'S A VERY BASIC PROPERTY. ROOMS ARE SMALL , FUNISHINGS ARE SHABBY AND WORN OUT.ELEVATORS ARE POORLY MAINTAINED .IN SHORT NO VALUE FOR MONEY.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Booked this because Radisson have a good name. I'm surprised that they are willing to put this hotel in their portfolio. The room was spartan, showing its age and far too hot. To be fair it was scrupulously clean but was far from the treat it was intended to be for my wife's birthday. Breakfast food was cold - I have never had a stone cold fried egg […] before - and the tables were left uncleared so that it was impossible to find a space to sit down. I must say however that the staff were lovely, helpful, knowledgeable and made it difficult to complain. Not much point though as I guess one room would be much like the others. I liked the location a little outside of town and parking was easy. This hotel needs some serious TLC before I would stay again though. Read more

The hotel is a bit dated but is clean. The rooms are large and the bathrooms very nice and in good condition. The location is OK, a 10 -15 minute easy walk to downtown. Breakfast was included and it was a buffet. They served the exact same thing everyday. It was plentiful and makes it a good value! The hotel accomodates early check-ins by storing luggage […] and making their spa available on arrival. There is concierge service for booking excursions and assisting with the excursions pre-booked on line. There is another Radisson Blu hotel which is located Downtown. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

The rooms were dated, it was like the room had been decorated with 70/80s Ikea furniture, but it was comfortable. The TV was small but the view out over Reykjavik more than made up for it. Location wise, it was a bit too far from the centre to walk to but it was near enough to bus stops and the BSI terminal to be able to get to where you needed to […] be. The hotel was normally the last stop for drop offs after excursions but we were always picked up with plenty of time to spare so we were never in danger of being late for an outing. The only downside to the hotel for me was some of the staff in the tourist information shop. Some staff were very helpful, others would wheel themselves around on their office chair! Not what you expect when the rest of Iceland seems so friendly. Food in the restaurant, for both breakfast and dinner, was very good and the rest of the hotel staff were very helpful. Would happily stay there again. Read more

The hotel has all the amenities of what you would expect of a Radisson hotel. Overall a great stay with lovely dinning area suitable for dinner with good ambience. The rooms though clean and spacious even for the basic executive room, looks bit dated and need renovation.

Comfortable and clean room with good view of church and mountains. Breakfast copious and staff pleasant although sometimes there was long wait at reception. Lifts need new doors and were a little erratic! Once or twice we had to walk up and down 6 floors rather than wait for lift! Surprisingly the hotel is only 10 min walk from town centre despite being […] in a rather desolate part of town! Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

We arrived into Reykjavik on a wet and grey Sunday which initially gave the hotel and the immediate surrounding area the look and feel of an Eastern Bloc country circa the mid 1970s. Saying that though once inside the reception and bar/restaurant areas were modern and comfortable very much in line with the design of a business like hotel. Very friendly […] reception staff on arrival. Our room was on the 7th floor with a view over the domestic airport. This wasn't a problem at all regarding noise as flight arrivals were few and far between and were all turbo prop aircraft. The room was clean and well fitted out with the usual business hotel mod cons. Our stay was just for 1 night before our early departure from Keflavik airport back to London the next day. We chose this hotel as it had free parking and was only 10 mins walk from the centre of town (which coming from London is no distance at all). It was also well located for an easy to follow drive out to Keflavik airport the next day. The property does very much have the feel of a chain business hotel so if you are looking for something with more local flavour it probably isn't for you. For us it was a place to stop over on the last night of our trip and matched all our key requirements (decent standard of accommodation/free parking/location - easy to follow drive to hotel/short walk to city centre) .

Good size room with great views, Sony LCD TV, comfortable chairs and good bed. The pillows were a bit firm for me but overall a good bed. The view from room was very good but the outside of the windows could do with a clean. Location was great and parking ample, if you wanted a pizza from dominoes then all you had to do was pick up phone and press 4 […] to get straight through to dominoes. Bathroom was good. I looked forward to going back after a long day shooting (photos). Warm and comfortable with easy access to the city whether driving or walking. If you have a car there is a shell right on the edge of the hotel car park which is 24 hour (24 hour fuel only). There is a Subway (sandwich shop) at many of the petrol stations throughout Iceland so you can refuel and get something to eat. Would definitely recommend and plan to stay again sometime. Read more

The staff in the hotel and for the services were generally very good. One of the ladies in the tourist centre wasn't much help at all and was pretty much glued to the chair behind her desk making it difficult to get anything out of her. Other than that, the staff at reception and even the cleaners were all very helpful and friendly. The room we had […] did have a very good view of Reykjavik, but the furniture was dated, the TV was small and badly positioned and the wall had torn wallpaper that had probably been like that for a long while now. Bed and other amenities were good and the free wifi made it easy for us to check the weather and find things to do at our leisure. There was confusion over wether the breakfast was included as we got different answers from our Expedia booking info, the staff and the in-room TV menu, but if you have it, I think it's pricey for what it is. The bus stop outside the hotel made it easy to get around the city and was a real plus for us, as was the free spa centre in the basement. The Reykjavik Excursions tour company always seemed to pick us up last for tours, which worked in our favour going out, but we were always last to be dropped of afterwards, which was a bit of a pain.

Grear service and always genuinly willing to help. Hotel was central and had excellent views. Dinner was excellent but only a limited bar menu, however as the city centre was close this was not a problem (try the icelandic bar). However if you want to see the Northern Lights consider a hotel out of town.

The rooms was spacious. The towel radiator in the bathroom wasnt working and the sink kept blocking first night which fixed by itself. The breakfast and dinner food was good. The best part was the service by staff. The staff were pleasant and helpful. The travel agent in the lobby wasnt much help. There was free internet in the rooms and rooms were […] very well heated. There were magnificant views of the city from our room. Read more

A nice hotel which maintains the standards of the Radisson chain of hotels. Parking was free which was good. A 10 minute walk takes you to the city and tourist attractions. You can order pizza to be delivered if you don't want to use/pay for the hotel restaurant(s). Breakfast wasn't included in our deal and we felt the price of the breakfast was too […] high so we walked to a bakery in the city past the city pond which was really good. Overall a good quality, clean hotel for a stop over in Reykjavic. Read more

I stayed at the Saga in September 2010 for several nights in one of the suites and it was very good. I booked at the Saga again but only for a one night stay at the end of my Iceland trip this summer. Again, the suite was spacious and easily accommodate four adults. The room was clean, sunny and well set up. The only criticism I have is that we had […] booked for four people but there were only towels, glasses and coffee cups for two. While this is minor, it is a little irritating to have to call down to get the proper number of basic items for your stay. A second problem was with the single cup coffee maker. The first one didn't work at all but was replace quickly with another which worked. However, by the next morning the coffee maker would only spew-out hot water through the frothing apparatus. The engineers cam to fix it, taking it away for a few minutes before returning it 'repaired'. We went on to make a cup of coffee a only to have it erupt again. with only two hours to check-put we gave up. Read more

Rooms assigned were not those we had paid for. One of the rooms had a broken hairdryer, which is fine that can happen. Unfortunately, maintenance guy that fixed it also used the bathroom and left cigarette ash in the toilet. Hot breakfast is never hot although good selection most days. Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful once you learnt which […] ones to ask. Chef happy to make special meals on request which was very helpful for us. It is in a ood location if you want a bit of peace and quiet but a short walk into town and the restaurants. Would not recommend, we just had too many problems with the hotel although they were quick to try and rectify and make amends. Read more

Friendly staff, good breakfast and excellent spa. The decoration in bedrooms and halls is a bit dated but the reception, bar and resteraunt are very nice. There was a pretty, central firepit thing in the downstairs resteraunt that complements the candles which seem to be all around. Although when you come out of the hotel it seems that you are in the […] middle of nowhere it is a pleasant 10min walk round the lake (called the pond) into the town centre. But not for those that don't like to walk. We were there in December when they serve a Traditional Icelandic Christmas Buffet in the evening which is delicious and recomended. Breakast buffet is good but don't expect quite an english breakfast. We were more than happy with the variety they had each day and I filled up till mid afternoon every time. Spa is a must as it is very quiet has a really hot steam room and is free to guests. Read more

Fint hotell med god frokost og bra fasiliteter, men rommet hadde sett bedre dager. Det var rent, men skikkelig slitt. Man skulle nesten tro at rommet ikke hadde blitt pusset opp siden hoteller var nytt på 60-tallet. Til den prisen hadde jeg forventet mer. Det var ikke noe å utsette på servicen, men neste gang velger jeg et annet hotell.

Radisson Blu Saga er et dejligt hotel og komforten er i top. Restauranten på toppen har fin udsigt og maden og vinene var yderst delikate. Den lille bar ved siden af er også ganske hyggelig, omend lidt for lille, hvis man er flere mennesker. Morgenmaden var ok, men lidt kedelig efter 3 dage, da der ikke var den store udskiftning i udvalget. Beliggenheden […] er ideel hvis man ønsker at bo lidt uden for centrum.
