About Hotel Holt Bar

Tucked in behind the reception at Hótel Holt, this is the closest Reykjavík gets to a time capsule: plush leather armchairs, Persian rugs, and walls hung with Kjarval portrait sketches, which is to say the art is museum-tier and you are allowed to sit in it with a whiskey. There is a fire. The bar is open Tuesday to Saturday, 16:00 to 22:00, and happy hour runs 16:00 to 19:00.
