Where it is
The address in the listing is Laugavegur 120, 105 Reykjavik. Postcode 105 covers Hlíðar.
In a straight line it is 1.2 km (0.7 miles) from the centre point this site measures from, in the old town by Lækjartorg, to the south-east. On foot that should take roughly 20 minutes. That is an estimate, not a measured route: the straight line with 30 percent added for the streets, at an ordinary walking pace of 5 km/h.
Booking.com's own location score for the property, from its guests, is 9.2 out of 10.
On parking the listing says: “No parking available.”

Rooms on a sample search
On a search for two adults, 12 to 14 October 2026, the listing offered 3 room types, set out in the table below. Availability changes by the night, so this is what existed then, not a promise about your dates.
Of the 31 rate options on that search, 15 allowed free cancellation, so a flexible rate existed for those nights; whether one does for yours is on the booking page.
Breakfast appeared in the rate options as “Good breakfast $31”, “Good breakfast included” and “Breakfast & dinner included”.

Arrival, departure and the fine print
Check-in is from 3:00 PM and check-out until 11:00 AM. The listing attaches this to check-in: “You need to let the property know what time you'll be arriving in advance.”
The fine print, as the listing words it: “When booking 8 rooms or more, different policies and additional supplements may apply. Please inform Midgardur by Center Hotels of your expected arrival time in advance. You can use the Special Requests box when booking, or contact the property directly using the contact details in your confirmation. In response to the coronavirus (COVID-19), additional safety and sanitation measures are in effect at this property.”

How much the guest score can carry
8.6 out of 10 from 1,815 reviews. At that number of stays one unhappy or delighted guest barely moves the average, so the score is a fair summary of how guests have found it.
Within “Every place to stay in the Reykjavik catalogue” it stands 155 of 458 when the group is sorted by score and number of reviews together, so that a 10 from one guest does not outrank a 9.1 from two thousand.
