An apart-hotel down town, just a few steps from Laugavegur, the main shopping and clubbing street. The apartments are spacious, beautifully decorated and reasonably priced. On the forth floor, there is a big balcony with a hot jacuzzy where you can lie and enjoy the scenery of the bay, the mountains and the harbour, or just gaze up at the stars. Definitely worth the money!

Café Rosenberg is one of the few places in Iceland where you can get a good meal at a reasonable price (reasonable by Icelandic standards, anyway). It's a pub, restaurant and the centre for live music in down town Reykjavík. Every Friday and Saturday night there is live music and sometimes also during the week. All kinds of music, from local troubadours to world famous musicians. Very popular with tourists as well as locals, so you may meet people from all four corners of the world in one night. Check it out. You won’t be disappointed.
