Golden Hall is a gorgeous reception space and is truly dreamy with its stunning use of lighting, elegant framed mirrors, and architectural touches that can accommodate 50-75 people for your unforgettable Iceland wedding reception!

Set perfectly in what you could call the “town square” of downtown Reykjavik, Borg is centrally located to tourist attractions, dining, shopping, and varied nightlife! Especially with Reykjavik’s convenient positioning between local culture and the nearby options of multiple whale watching and sea excursions, the Golden Circle, and the majority of southern Iceland’s most beautiful attractions are all within about a two hour drive.

With beautiful views of the city, harbor, and “Midnight Sun-sets” the hotel offers many different styles of amenities.
