Reykjavik rental apartments, flats for rent and flatshares

The capital city of Iceland is a marvel for both its local residents and the expats that decide to make this wonderful city their home. The city is closely linked with its surroundings and natural wonders such as glaciers and the blue lagoon are never very far away. Reykjavik is a small capital in terms of European cities, but its compact nature means that it is easy to travel by bicycle or on foot (only during the summer months though!).

Reykjavik apartments come in all shapes and sizes, and the price is dependent on which district the apartment is located in. In city center districts like 101 and 102, expect to pay premium prices as these are very popular areas close to the city center. One of the most popular neighborhoods is called Miðborg and it is also the tourist center and business hub of the city, downtown Reykjavik apartments in Miðborg will be at a higher price than outer-lying districts.

Those expats with families that are looking for a flat for rent in Reykjavik should consider Laugardalur 104 as their choice of neighborhood. The area is quiet, safe and a little out of the way of the city center. Residents love its laid back atmosphere whilst maintaining a close community feeling and inclusive neighborhood with good local schools.

For people who are worried about prices of flats in Reykjavik for rent, the best area for cheaper accommodation is Hlíðar 105 and Laugardalur 104, these neighbourhoods are a little outside the centre yet are just a short bus ride away. Public transportation in Reykjavik is very good, cheap and consistent, thus for those living on the outskirts it is a short, simple and painless commute to downtown.

The studios can be found all across the city in many different areas including Miðborg, Hlíðar and Laugardalur. The main bulk of cheap apartments in Reykjavik are in outer-lying neighborhoods such as Hlíðar and Laugardalur.

Rooms for Rent in Reykjavik

Long term rooms and flatshares in Reykjavik

The hub of Iceland’s government, business and infrastructure is also the northernmost capital on the planet. The small size of the capital means that transport around the city is very good, from a suburb on the outskirts you can be in downtown in less than twenty minutes. If you travel in the other direction, you can be watching the majestic glaciers in under an hour!

To find a room with a view Reykjavik, then look to the little town on the outskirts called Seltjarnarnes. The neighborhood is surrounded by the sea and many properties in the village have an ocean view. The town itself holds the Gretta lighthouse and is a tourist attraction in itself. Transport to the center of Reykjavik from Seltjarnarnes should take no more than 30 minutes.

One of the cheapest options in terms of price is to rent a room in Reykjavik in a shared apartment. As the city itself is pretty expensive, even by European standards, funding an entire apartment on one salary can be challenging. That's why many people choose to share an apartment with friends or colleagues.

To rent a room in Reykjavik is also a great way to find a new social group, which is especially important for those people moving to the city without many contacts. Rooms in Reykjavik are easier to come by than entire apartments, as many people have a spare room or two that they dont mind subletting to expats for a share of the rent.

Student Apartments & Rentals in Reykjavik

Iceland is a great place to study, and the capital city in Iceland is the best place in which to do it. The university here is internationally accredited and the city itself is small enough to navigate easily for new students. Student accommodation in Reykjavik is very central and close to the university campus, so students can easily walk to class from the dorms.

The nightlife in Reykjavik is extremely good and diverse, especially considering how small the city is. If students crave something a little more independence when choosing their accommodation there are also plenty of options for private rents in shared apartments across the city.
