About Iceland
Iceland is a refreshingly unconventional travel destination. The Icelandic nature is unspoilt, exotic and mystical with its spouting geysers, active volcanoes, tumbling waterfalls, towering mountains, vast lava plains and magical lakes. Iceland’s fjords, glaciers and highland plains present visitors with some of the most beautiful and enchanting places they will ever see, as well as a rare feeling of utter tranquillity.

For travelers on a quest for action, Iceland’s pristine nature offers great potential for outdoor activities such as snowmobiling, horse riding, cave exploring, hiking, swimming, skiing, river rafting, kayaking and mountain safaris on modified four-wheel drives, to name but a few. Iceland supports a surprisingly diverse Nordic flora and fauna and is an ideal place for ornithology enthusiasts, while also offering some of the world’s best whale watching destinations.

About Reykjavik
Reykjavík sometimes feels like a cosmopolitan capital and a tiny seaside village - all wrapped up in one. But Reykjavík has the best of both worlds; the qualities of a modern, forward-looking society complemented by a close connection to Iceland‚s beautiful and unspoilt nature.

Reykjavík’s legendary nightlife is bolstered by plentiful cultural and social happenings in addition to an abundance of first-class restaurants. The size of Reykjavik city centre is also limited enough to allow for easy navigation by foot. Reykjavík has been described as a young and daring city that is characterized by strong contrasts. Conveniently small, clean and safe, it is more or less free from the major problems that haunt many other capitals. Big city events are frequent, the winter lights festival finished recently with thousands of participants and more tourist at this time of the year than we are used to.

101 Hotel

The design at 101 Hotel, Reykjavík’s newest and trendiest locals, is something worth seeing. It is a new and hip spot located in an old building built in the 1930's in early modernist style on a busy corner in downtown Reykjavík.

101 Hotel is the work of the owner, Ingibjörg Pálmadóttir who designed the whole place in a minimalist style with a monochromatic palette of volcanic black and grays, reflecting Iceland's landscape. Warm American oak flooring stretches across the building's entire expanse. An impressive art collection, which holds many of the leading contemporary artists in Iceland perk up the walls and the cozy lounge with fireplace, leather banquettes and upholstered chairs makes the staying even more relaxing.

The hotel's beating heart is the casual restaurant and the narrow bar with high walls and glass ceiling where hamburgers with cheese and fashionable dishes sit side by side on the menu and all for a really reasonable price. The restaurant is one of the trendiest places in town and serves a delicious menu featuring a combination of modern Icelandic and international cuisine with Indian influences. You can also get soups, salads and small dishes. Breakfast is served from 07:00 until 10:30, and until 11:00 on weekends.
