GET TO KNOW US

Booking Terms

The total amount of the reservation will be charged if canceled within 2 days of arrival. In case of a no-show, the full reservation will be charged.

Bookings shall be made online through our website, or by writing to nordic@nordichostel.is.

Please include all necessary details for us to ensure maximum efficiency. For group bookings, a status list must be sent 8 weeks before arrival and a confirmed name list must be sent 4 weeks before arrival.

When making a reservation at Nordic Hostel, you have two options available: Standard and Non-refundable. Please note that for both options, a valid credit card is required to complete the reservation process.

To ensure safety and convenience, we require credit card information and a valid document registration during check-in. This is necessary for payment and fraud prevention purposes. Please be advised that failure to comply with this request will result in the inability to check-in. All information collected will be erased after check-out. 

Non-refundable Option: Selecting the non-refundable option means that the full amount will be charged to your credit card immediately upon booking. It's important to understand that once you've chosen this option, refunds for the amount paid are not available.

Standard Option: Opting for the standard option provides you with flexibility. You can cancel your reservation up to 48 hours before the check-in date. To cancel, simply send an email to nordic@nordichostel.is. Please note that if you cancel after this period, charges may apply.

We recommend reviewing both options carefully before making your reservation to ensure it aligns with your travel plans and preferences.

Group Policy (8 people or more): we reserve the right to charge a 30% deposit at the time of booking to confirm the reservation. Full payment must be paid at least 4 weeks before arrival, or upon confirmation if booked within 4 weeks of arrival. If the payment is delayed, Nordic Hostel reserves the right to cancel the booking and withdraw its confirmation of services.

By standard practices of the Icelandic travel industry, the following cancellation fees apply.

Notice of cancellation – Groups (8 or More): Less than four weeks before arrival 100% will be charged in case of cancellation, but a new reservation can be made for the same value within a year from the original reservation.
