The Reykjavik Konsulat Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton, opened last week as the brand’s first property in Iceland. Housed in a restored early-1900s high-end department store, the hotel preserves the building’s historic character while introducing contemporary comforts and design that pay homage to its past.
Located in downtown Reykjavik, the hotel is within easy walking distance of the Icelandic parliament, shopping districts, restaurants and nightlife, and provides convenient access to natural and historic attractions around the city. The property offers 50 guestrooms that blend natural materials and Icelandic-inspired design, each equipped with modern amenities including complimentary WiFi.
GOTT Reykjavik, the hotel’s restaurant and bar, focuses on inventive dishes rooted in local flavors and seasonal ingredients. Guests can enjoy contemporary takes on Icelandic cuisine in a relaxed setting. The on-site spa features an Icelandic-style bath experience inspired by the country’s geothermal springs, designed to offer restorative relaxation after a day of sightseeing.
Mark Nogal, global head of Curio Collection by Hilton, said the new hotel is a significant addition to the brand’s portfolio. He noted that Reykjavik Konsulat Hotel represents the Curio Collection’s first entry into Iceland and Hilton’s third property in Reykjavik. The hotel’s distinctive character and central location make it an appealing choice for travelers seeking both heritage and modern hospitality.
Brynhildur Guðmundsdottir, general manager of Reykjavik Konsulat Hotel, welcomed guests to the new property and emphasized its versatility. Whether visitors arrive to explore Reykjavik’s many attractions or to relax and enjoy the hotel’s stylish accommodations and dining, the property aims to meet the needs of a wide range of travelers.
To mark the opening, Hilton Honors members who book a three-night stay at the hotel before May 31 will receive 5,000 bonus points. This opening offer gives loyalty members an incentive to experience the hotel’s design, dining and spa amenities while discovering Reykjavik’s city center and nearby natural wonders.
