About Harpa

Harpa is Reykjavik's concert hall and conference centre, a glass building on the harbour edge that has become one of the city's best-known landmarks. Its facade of coloured glass panels catches the Icelandic light, and the views over the water and towards Mount Esja draw visitors even when no performance is on. People come for the programme of concerts, conferences, exhibitions and events that fills the calendar through the year, and for the building itself.

Tips for staying near Harpa

  • Check the Harpa programme before you book: concert and conference days fill the area around the building, and the closest hotels are the first to go.
  • For a morning flight out of Keflavík, choose one of the central hotels near Harpa so the transfer at the start of the day stays short.
  • Several apartments and hotels here, such as City View Lux in the City Center with Free Parking, include free car parking, worth knowing if you plan to drive to Harpa.
  • Evening performances mean the 1 to 5 minute walks back to the hotels on this list are done on lit city streets; book your room early for those nights.
