The take
The Take
The Vibe
The 101 hotel occupies a converted 1930s office building and blends historic fabric with a casual‑chic, design-forward sensibility. It reads as a boutique, quietly trendy property rather than an ornate landmark: pared-back interiors, attention to details, and an emphasis on local culture place design and neighborhood rhythm at the center of the stay. The hotel favors a relaxed, approachable tone — modern and minimalist in its edit but rooted in the building’s past. Guests experience a balance of historic character and contemporary design, making the property feel stylish without feeling ostentatious.
Best For
101 positions itself for travelers who prioritize neighborhood and design over chain amenities. It is best for design-literate guests who like to arrive on foot, spend mornings at local coffee roasters, and seek evenings of Icelandic food and a small bar scene. The hotel functions as a base for slow city exploration rather than a hub for sightseeing itineraries; its appeal is the density of independent businesses and cultural institutions within easy walking distance. Business travelers who want a boutique feel and weekend visitors looking for a curated Reykjavik address also find it a natural fit.
Stay Tips
Prioritize the neighborhood when planning a stay at 101: book a room with an eye toward walkability rather than onsite amenities, and plan mornings around nearby coffee roasters mentioned in the surrounding blocks. The hotel’s value is its location in the 101 postal district, so build an itinerary that favors wandering Hverfisgata and sampling independent restaurants and bars rather than relying on hotel facilities. If you prefer a design-focused boutique stay, arrive on foot to appreciate the building’s integration into the street. Reservations at nearby restaurants help on busy evenings.
