Start your day like a local with a soak in the geothermal hot tubs at Laugardalslaug, then explore Reykjavík’s top attractions—all within easy reach. My calm, spacious home is in a quiet neighborhood near the city center, making it perfect for longer stays. Enjoy a fully equipped kitchen, fast WiFi, and a cozy workspace, or unwind on the sunny south-facing balcony. On rainy evenings, curl up with a book from my library, featuring classic literature, philosophy, and history in English. The apartment is 80 square meters, fully equipped and has recently been renovated. It's on the second floor in an apartment building built in the 60s (it's in great shape and has been well maintained) and consists of two large bedrooms, a bathroom (with both a shower and a bathtub), a large kitchen and a bright, spacious living room where you can access the south facing balcony and hopefully see some northern lights. There's plenty of closet space and the WIFI is powerful and fast. The beds are 160 cm x 200 cm and 140 cm x 200 cm...

At HousingAnywhere, in-person viewings are not supported — so everyone has an equal chance to rent, no matter where you are in the world. To help you make an informed decision, we recommend:
- Messaging the landlord on HousingAnywhere to ask any questions.
- Requesting more photos, video tours, or floor plans.
- Read up on Tenant Protection to learn how you’re covered if something goes wrong.
Use the ‘Message landlord’ button to start a secure conversation on our platform. You can ask questions, discuss terms, and safely exchange documents.
Keeping your conversation on HousingAnywhere protects your privacy and helps you avoid scams. All your messages are also saved in one place for easy access and as a record of your agreements.
Once your rental is confirmed, we’ll share the landlord’s contact info so you can arrange your move-in.
Tenant Protection is our service to help you rent with peace of mind. We hold all payments you make through our platform before move-in, including the first month's rent and any deposit. After you arrive, you have 48 hours to check that the place is as you expected. We only send your money to the landlord if everything is okay.
