4-star hotels in Keflavik
This shortlist gathers the 4-star hotels and apartments in Keflavik, the town beside Iceland's main international airport. It is for travellers who want a comfortable base near the airport, whether for one night before a flight or a longer stay to explore the Reykjanes peninsula.
Staying in Keflavik
Keflavik sits on the Reykjanes peninsula in south-west Iceland, right next to Keflavik International Airport, which makes it the natural first or last stop on most Iceland trips. The town itself is a compact coastal place with a harbour, shops and restaurants, and it works well as a base for the Blue Lagoon, the lava fields and the peninsula's rugged coastline.
The hotels on this shortlist are spread across the town. Several sit along the main thoroughfares of Hringbraut and Grænásbraut, while others are in the older streets closer to the harbour, such as Hafnargata and Klapparstígur. The mix suits different travellers: couples looking for a quiet apartment, families needing extra space and family rooms, and business or transit guests who want a full-service hotel with a 24-hour front desk and meeting facilities.
