Gamli Garður (lit. Old Dormitory) is a dormitory at Iceland's Háskóli Íslands (University of Iceland), first opened in 1934. It is Iceland's oldest residence hall and the oldest building still standing on campus.[1] International scholarship recipients reside at the dormitory for the duration of their stay. The dormitory was originally employed to house Icelandic students exclusively and currently serves as a hotel during the summer. It contains 43 single 12-square-metre (130 sq ft) rooms.
