Iceland’s first luxury hotel, on Austurvöllur since 1930: Art Deco rooms, a spa and a Tower Suite over the old centre.

Hotel Borg, at Pósthússtræti 11 on Austurvöllur square, was completed in 1930 and, in its own words, has been Iceland’s first and most celebrated deluxe hotel for nearly a century. Its founder made his fortune as a circus performer in America, the hotel records. Today it has 99 rooms, from singles to the Tower Suite with views over downtown Reykjavík, and a spa and fitness room.
