Pros:

This hotel was truly a hidden gem in Reykjavík. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help with anything we needed.

Our room was fantastic — spacious, comfortable, and with a beautiful view that made our stay even more special. The location was also excellent, with all the main attractions, restaurants, and shops within walking distance.

Everything about our experience exceeded our expectations. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Reykjavík.

Very Difficult to find.
Pros:

I was unable to locate this hotel using either Google Maps or the iPhone GPS, despite multiple attempts. One of the primary reasons I selected this property was the availability of parking; however, there was no accessible street parking nearby that would have allowed me to safely stop and search for the hotel on foot. The only alternative was to use a paid parking garage, which would have eliminated the cost savings I received through my booking. Unfortunately, due to these challenges, I was not able to check in or evaluate the hotel itself. Lost my money for a hotel I booked but could not find. The hotel did not answer my call when I was trying to find it.

Would book again
Pros:

Wonderful room for 2 nights - got our favorite food recc of the trip (Seabaron) from a friendly clerk and got two chances to meet Baktus the cat who hangs around sometimes.
There were some rowdies causing quite a ruckus down the street our first night but thanks to the complimentary ear plugs CCH provided we slept great
Great value too!

I would recommend City Center Hotel and would definitely stay there again.
Pros:

The hotel was really quirky. The room was large. The location was perfect!!

Cons:

Due to the location there was a lot of street noise during the night. It was Saturday night, so very busy with the pubs around. However, the hotel supplied ear plugs. So can’t complain.

Tolle Lage aber sehr hellhörig, Bars direkt nebenan
Pros:

Top Lage für einen Kurzaufenthalt.

Cons:

Leider hatten wir ein Zimmer zur Straße und am Wochenende war in der Bar neben an so laut Party - man hätte meinen können wir haben keine Fenster. An Schlaf war leider nicht zu denken.

Stylisches Downtown-Hotel - gerne wieder!
Pros:

Stylisches Downtown-Hotel in top Lage, direkt in der belebten Innenstadt mit vielen Bars, Shops, Restaurants direkt in der Nachbarschaft. Sehr freundliches Personal. Unser Zimmer war rückseitig, daher sehr ruhig mit Blick auf das alte Parlament.
