Spent 7 nights here during "Geek Week" - The CCP Fanfest. Friendly receptionists, any time of the day & night. Bar has been upgraded since last year - now called Micro Bar, serves 8 local microbrews, and a staggering amount of beers on bottle. Room: small, but the bed was good, walk-in shower with rainfall head was fantastic. Will return... More

Located on the main thoroughfare, with a great array of bars, restaurants and clubs right on the doorstep. The reception staff were unfailingly helpful, one of them dealing immediately with my lost coat that I had left on the transfer bus. He made a few phone calls and the item was located within the hour. The room was awesome -... More

We stayed at the City Centre Hotel for weekend break in April 2013. On arrival at the hotel it was discovered that my fellow traveller had left his jacket and wallet on the transfer bus from the Airport. Even before we’d had chance to check in Farouk on reception was straight onto the phone trying to find the jacket from... More

We spent three nights here in late March and were unfailingly pleased with the friendly, professional staff; with our spacious, bright room; and with the healthy breakfast choices available on the buffet. The hotel is three minutes walk from justly celebrated restaurants and many interesting shops. One would expect to pay much more for a hotel as charming as this,... More

Great hotel, very clean, very central location (hence the name), extremely friendly staff always willing to make your stay more pleasant. We had no issues with any noise and slept great. We stayed here 5 nights. The bar downstairs, Micro Bar, has a great selection of Icelandic microbrews on tap as well as dozens of bottles of local & imports.

We stayed for a long weekend in February, hoping to see the Northern Lights which unfortunately we didn't manage to catch. The hotel is in an excellent location in the heart of Reykjavik, which is a relatively small city in comparison to UK cities. There are plenty of bars and restaurants nearby and the main shopping street and major sites... More

They assisted with restaurant bookings, directions, heck they even went out of their way to pay my parking ticket for me. The breakfast was pretty decent and the location is --as... More
