Guesthouse Sunna enjoys a superb location right by the iconic Hallgrímskirkja church, making it easy to explore Reykjavík's attractions, restaurants, and shops. Many guests appreciated the clean and comfortable rooms, some with a view of the church, and the convenience of shared kitchen facilities for preparing meals. Some found the rooms very basic. The guesthouse also offers practical amenities like laundry facilities and luggage storage, and parking is a plus, although it can fill up quickly, so arriving early is recommended.
