A self-catering base in the capital

Lundur Apartments is a stay in Reykjavik itself, a city of 139,804 people within a greater capital region of 253,230. The apartment sits within the 244 square kilometres (94 square miles) the city has covered since its charter was granted on 18 August 1786. There is no stated duration for a stay here, and no entry price is published, which suits a property you book by the night rather than a tour with a set length. The rating of 8.9 comes from 635 reviews, a substantial base of experience that tells you more than a handful of perfect scores ever could. This is a place for travellers who want to arrange their own days in the capital, cook their own meals, and come back to a flat rather than a hotel corridor.

Position within Reykjavik

The catalogue places Lundur Apartments in Reykjavik without naming a street, so the precise address is not something you can plan around in advance. What you do know is that the departure city for any excursion you book from here is Reykjavik itself, which puts the capital's bus terminals, harbour and tour operators within reach. The city proper covers 244 square kilometres (94 square miles), and the greater region holds a quarter of a million people, so the apartment could sit anywhere from the dense centre to a quieter residential edge. Without a stated location, the sensible approach is to ask the operator for the exact address before you book, then judge whether you need a car or can rely on the city's bus network. The lack of a published position is the one real unknown about this listing, and it matters more than most details because it decides how you will spend your first and last hours of each day.

What the catalogue does not carry

This listing has no free cancellation, which is the exception among the 1,392 stays in the wider catalogue where 730 do grant it. You should factor that into your plans from the start, because a change of dates or a cancelled trip will not be covered by a blanket policy. The operator also does not publish a price, so you cannot compare the nightly rate against the four comparable listings, one of which starts at 557 US dollars while the others state no price at all. There is no duration stated, which is normal for an apartment but means you will need to ask about minimum nights. The catalogue records no address beyond Reykjavik, no details of the apartment's size, layout or facilities, and no description of the building or its surroundings. None of the comparable listings offers more detail, so this is not a gap unique to Lundur Apartments; it is simply how this catalogue records apartment stays. What you do have is the rating, the review count, and the location in the capital, and those three facts are enough to shortlist the property before you contact the operator for the missing specifics.

What the score is worth

An 8.9 from 635 reviews is a strong signal, not because the number is high but because so many people have weighed in. In a category of 319 apartment listings, this property ranks 32nd by the number of reviews, which puts it in the top tenth for the sheer volume of guest feedback. That volume means the score has not been set by one or two enthusiastic visitors; it has been averaged across hundreds of stays, and it has held at a level that most properties would take. The rank of 128 out of 319 by the catalogue's own ordering, which weighs evidence rather than raw score, looks modest by comparison, but that ordering is not a quality judgement. A property with 635 ratings will always sit lower in an evidence-weighted list than one with a perfect score from a single review, and the 8.9 is the more honest measure. Among the comparable listings, every one of the four alternatives carries a 10.0 score, but each has only one or two reviews behind it. Lundur Apartments has more than six hundred times that weight of opinion, which makes its 8.9 a far safer bet than any perfect score built on a single stay.

Season and time of day

Reykjavik's temperatures peak in July, when the average high reaches 15 degrees and the low stays at 9, and the warmest stretch runs from June through August, with highs of 13 to 15 degrees. May and September sit either side of that, at 10 and 11 degrees respectively, still workable for a city stay. From October the averages drop: 8 degrees in October, 5 in November, and then the winter plateau of December through February, where highs hover at 3 degrees and lows fall to minus 2. For a self-catering apartment, the season changes what you do with your daylight more than whether you can visit at all. In summer, the long evenings mean you can shop for groceries, cook, and still head out afterwards without the dark cutting the day short. In winter, the short daylight hours and the cold mean you will spend more time inside the apartment itself, so the quality of the heating and the kitchen matters more. The mildest months for a city break are May through September, when you can walk between the centre and the apartment without needing heavy layers, and when the lows stay above freezing from May to October.
