Ideally located in the Reykjavik 101 district in close proximity to the Pint-sized Icelandic Punk Offbeat Museum, the smoke-free hotel has 130 rooms.

Location

A stone's throw from a lake, this Reykjavik hotel is only 0.8 km from the Lutheran Hallgrimskirkja Parish Church. Be sure to visit The Statue of Leif Eiriksson within reach of the Saga Reykjavik.

Solfar Sculpture is also nearly a 10-minute ride away.

Situated in the very heart of Reykjavik, the accommodation is a stone's throw from Hafnarhus bus stop.

The allergy-friendly rooms have a seating area, and are furnished with sound-proof windows. Bathrooms include a walk-in shower and a separate toilet, along with hairdryers and bath sheets.

Eat & Drink

Breakfast is served every morning in the restaurant. You can visit Froeken Reykjavik Kitchen restaurant for breakfast and eat local dishes. Guests can relax at the on-site lounge bar. It also features a lounge for guests' comfort. You can try international cuisine in a seafood restaurant which is located very close by.

Leisure & Business

The Saga has a sauna and spa therapy to help diversify your leisure time. There is a fitness club on site.

“The location beside the lake provides a quiet setting, but some may find the modern design prioritizes form over function, as evidenced by reports of tricky light controls and non-functional amenities. While the staff is friendly and helpful, a stay may require patience with operational details. I think guests looking for seamless convenience might consider these factors.”
