Incredibly convenient. After 40 hours of travel my room was ready 2 hours early and I was very grateful. The breakfast is very well-appointed, the staff are warm and professional, and the rooms are small but clean and bright.

This particular Center Hotel “Arnarhvoll” has a breakfast buffet but does not have any other dining options available in the hotel. There are options within walking distance which are good. It’s a detail we missed when making our booking. Spectacular seaside views from the rooftop area. Staff were very helpful and friendly. We would stay there again.

Amazing stay!

The hotel was great! Amazing staff, the buffet was pretty good, and the view is incredible. The rooms are of adequate size, but the only thing we thought was uncomfortable was that there’s no separation between the shower and the rest of the bathroom.

Just a lovely place to stay

A wonderful stay for our first time in Iceland. Witnessed a beautiful sunrise at 3am from our room. Hotel was very close to the main area of Reykjavik with its many restaurants to chose from. Lovely rooftop bar and breakfast spot for a great breakfast.

Central location, though the back side of the building was overlooking an industrial area with garbage dumpsters.
