About Borgarleikhúsið

Borgarleikhúsið is a theatre in Reykjavik and one of the city's main stages, known for drama, comedy and musical productions. People visiting the Icelandic capital for a performance often look for hotels near Borgarleikhúsið so they can walk to the auditorium and back without arranging transport. The surrounding streets mix residential blocks with everyday shops and cafés, which gives the area a calmer feel than the busiest parts of the centre while still leaving guests within reach of the rest of Reykjavik. Evenings here are built around curtain times, so an early dinner nearby or a drink afterwards fits easily into a short stay. Because the theatre sits in a lived-in neighbourhood, guests staying close by tend to get a quiet night and an easy start the next morning, with the city's other sights a straightforward walk or short ride away. A good share of the accommodation listed on this page is self-catering, which suits visitors who want a kitchen, free parking and their own schedule around a show.

Tips for staying near Borgarleikhúsið

  • Theatre evenings fill the surrounding streets quickly, so plan to arrive at your hotel earlier in the afternoon on performance days and leave the car parked once you have a space.
  • Early flights are common into Reykjavik, and a self-catering apartment with a kitchen lets you settle in and eat before a show rather than hunting for a table at the last minute.
  • Free car parking comes with most of the hotels listed here, which matters if you are driving between the theatre, the coast and the rest of the city during your stay.
  • Weekends and the run-up to premieres are the busiest times near the theatre, so book a room well ahead if your dates are fixed around a particular performance.
  • If you are staying 11 minutes or more away, allow extra time on foot in winter and keep a short ride as a backup for the return after the curtain.
