We loved our stay at the City Center Hotel. The hotel was a short walk from the shuttle bus drop off. There is plenty of dining and shopping nearby. The hotel staff was friendly, giving suggestions on what to see and do while in Reykjavik. We would definitely stay at City Center Hotel again!

A great hotel located right in the middle of downtown. Easy to walk all over the place. Friendly front desk staff. Nicely and modernly decorated. Clean. Just note that because it’s centrally located, you do hear the partiers out and about especially on Friday night. My only request would be that the hotel have a microwave available to use.

Wonderful staff, so helpful with everything and chilled not like some corporate chain hotels this felt really relaxed and welcoming. Location is fantastic for eveything in and out the city. We had eveything we needed and more, brilliant view across the roof tops from our balcony (we were given a complementary upgraded room which was really kind and a lovely surprise). I would absolutely recommend staying here. Totally faultless thank you!
