Apotek Hotel

Hotel Borg

Opened in December 2014, the Apotek is a brand new high-end boutique hotel in the heart of Reykjavík. The historic building formerly housed the Reykjavíkurapótek pharmacy and was designed in 1917 by Guðjón Samúelsson, a former State Architect who built some of the most celebrated buildings in Iceland including Hallgrímskirkja church.

The sleek and stylish Borg is a grand art deco hotel in the heart of Reykjavík. Overlooking Austurvöllur Square – the location of the Icelandic parliament and the city’s cathedral – this 1930s landmark is surrounded by bustling cafés and historical buildings, and is within easy walking distance of a huge variety of galleries and restaurants.

The hotel’s 45 rooms and suites have a sleek, contemporary feel, with urban-style bathrooms and flat-screen televisions. Ask a Regent Iceland Specialist about upgrading to the marvellous three-floor Tower Suite.

A charming mix of art deco elegance and modern style, all 56 rooms have custom-made furniture, period black and white bathrooms with heated marble floors, flat-screen satellite television and high-speed internet connections. For an extra touch of luxury, ask a Regent Iceland Specialist about upgrading to a superior room or suite, where Bang & Olufsen flat-screen televisions and luxurious Hastens beds are among the high quality additions. The two-floor Tower Suite, which often accommodates visiting celebrities, boasts a magnificent 360° view of Reykjavík.

Due to the prime city centre location, the hotel’s restaurant and bar have a wonderful atmosphere, and Reykjavík’s shops, galleries and attractions are all close by – stroll five minutes north to the colourful harbour with views over the mountains, or head south on foot for five minutes along the lake shore to the Icelandic National Gallery. Just 200 metres east is the renowned Fish Market restaurant – one of Regent’s favourite places to dine in the capital.
