At the center of Reykjavik’s booming creative quarter, you’ll find the stylish, industrial Grandi hotel. More than just a great place to stay, the hotel is a quite lively gathering place for those in the know with a bar and a restaurant that are always full of life.  We know how to do cosy as you can see while staying in our spacious rooms that offer classic comfort with modern frills. This Four Star hotel has a great location, next to The Old Harbor, restaurants, and bars. 

The restaurant Héðinn Kitchen & Bar is located at Grandi hotel. It is beautifully decorated, spacious and overall quite elegant in both looks and taste since it offers dished conjured up by the national team chefs. These delicious dishes are made from high-quality seasonal ingredients. The restaurant is open every day for both lunch and dinner.
