area is ISK 80 (approx. £0.50 - $1 - 0.65 Euro) or for the first 2 hours ,

How does staying at the apartments compare to being in a hotel?
You get much more space and privacy at the apartments
and you can make your own meals
if you want to while getting full maid service
(or go to one of the great restaurants in walking distance from the apartments)
Is everything expensive in Iceland?
Not any more. The credit crunch has led to a great fall of the local currency, the
Krona, so Iceland is now one of the least expensive countries in Western Europe!
There is also a grocery shop in the arrivals hall.
What many people find most expensive here is alcohol and restaurant meals.
On arrival in Keflavik airport you can shop tax free for alcohol and cigarettes.
Reykjavik has many excellent restaurants and some of them are not very expensive.
However you can save a lot by making your own meals now and again.
Groceries vary in price from shop to shop, BONUS and KRONAN being the least expensive store.
There is a Bonus store in Hallveigarstigur, not far from the apartments.
Exchanging money
You can use international credit cards in almost all shops, restaurants etc. even Taxis.
Maestro and Visa Electron debit cards too.
Some UK, European and US banks will sell you Icelandic kronur at a much worse conversion
rate than you would get in Iceland.
Here
you can see the conversion rates in Iceland today. You would get the lower amount
(Kaupgengi)when changing money in an Icelandic bank. Compare this to what you would
get in your country and
you might well make a saving.
