There is no fee for staff to book a room for a meeting. However, there will be a fee if the services of a caretaker are required.

Guest accommodation can be booked via email: gestaibudir@hi.is.

The University of Iceland has several rooms on campus intended for the use of visiting scholars. The rooms are only available for those with a clear connection to the University and the booking request must come from a UI employee. All the rooms are located in the north wing of a building called Saga on Hagatorg. Please note that there is still ongoing construction in the south wing.

Rooms for group study can be booked once a week for up to three hours. If two or more rooms are booked during the same week, a charge will be applied to all requested rooms.
