Exclusive high-rise suites offering breathtaking panoramic views of Reykjavik, mountains, and ocean. Each spacious suite features modern Scandinavian design, full kitchen, and floor-to-ceiling windows. Private and sophisticated atmosphere perfect for special occasions.
Tower Suites Reykjavik offers an exclusive collection of eight luxury suites positioned on the upper floors of one of Reykjavík's tallest residential towers, at Katrinartún 2 in the city's eastern business district. The property is designed for guests seeking a private, apartment-style retreat with five-star amenities rather than a conventional hotel experience: there is no grand lobby, no restaurant, and no large common areas — instead, the entire concept centres on the suites themselves and the experience of inhabiting Reykjavík's skyline at height.
Each suite is spacious by any standard, spanning between approximately 80 and 250 square metres depending on configuration. Floor-to-ceiling windows wrap around the majority of the living space, offering uninterrupted panoramic views across the city, Faxaflói Bay to the north, the Snæfellsnes glacier to the northwest, Mount Esja to the east, and the Reykjanes peninsula to the south. The interiors follow a restrained Scandinavian style with high-quality bespoke furniture, full kitchens equipped with Miele appliances, and bathrooms featuring heated floors and deep soaking tubs. Every suite includes a separate living room and dining area; larger configurations add additional bedrooms and private outdoor terraces.
A dedicated concierge team manages all aspects of each stay: airport transfers, in-suite catering sourced from partner Reykjavík restaurants, private guides for Northern Lights excursions, helicopter tours over Iceland's highland interior, and reservations at the city's most exclusive dining establishments. Housekeeping operates on a schedule agreed with each guest to maintain full privacy.
The eastern business district location is approximately 2 kilometres from Austurvöllur Square and Laugavegur, accessible by taxi in five minutes or a 25-minute walk. The area's quieter residential character makes Tower Suites particularly well suited to guests prioritising privacy and unobstructed sightlines over proximity to bars and shops. Reykjavík Domestic Airport is within 3 kilometres for those arriving by private aircraft. The suites are especially well positioned for Northern Lights viewing on clear winter nights — upper-floor exposure and dark-interior design minimise light interference.
