About this property

Alafoss Apartments-The Bridge

The Unique Bridge - Studio Apartment ( 25 m2) has private entrance, located over the river Varmá which runs under the building. The apartment has balcony with a beautiful view over the river and open green area, king size bed, kitchenette, bathroom with shower.

Álafoss is located in Mosfellsbær, only 15 km from the City centre of Reykjavik. Perfectly located for guests seeking the tranquility and nature at the doorsteps of Reykjavik and being on the route of the Golden Circle.

Álafoss played a major role in the wool industry in Iceland starting in 1896 and still producing wool under the name Istex . The wool factory was both economically and socially important as workers came from all over Iceland to work and that created a colourful community with dances, indoor swimming pool and outdoor theatre.

Now the old factory buildings are occupied by the Álafoss wool factory store, restaurant, Sundlaugin (swimming pool) which was converted to a Recording Studio by the well known band Sigur Rós, artists- and crafts studios.

Álafoss Apartments building is connected over the river Varmá to Sundlaugin recording studio.

Green area surrounds Álafoss with vast selection of walking paths making it a good location to relax and get in touch with nature.

The apartment was exactly as advertised. Clean, well appointed, and convenient to Reykjavik. The nice surprise was the access to a nice walking trail along the creek and the adjacent woods. It made for a very pleasant way to begin or end each day.

Such a charming apartment close to the city
A well appointed apartment just on the outskirts of Reykjavík. Right inside a charming quarter where they used to make and wash wool. Cute little artisan shops close by. Apartment was super clean and had all the necessities. The view from the apartment over the water is so relaxing. The owner was amazing, she took the time to chat with us, feel us out for what kind of things we like to do and offered amazing suggestions, even typing out the spelling into Google for us. I would not hesitate to use this Home Away again.
