This hotel was literally perfect in terms of location. Right across from Harpa bus stop #5. Walking distance to all of downtown and has a beautiful sea view. Room was very clean and bed was comfy. Breakfast was ok. Didn’t have a chance to visit the sky bar or the spa. 10/10 will stay again in the future.

This hotel was lovely! I had a room overlooking the harbour which was absolutely beautiful. Comfortable but compact, and was a little cold, but very liveable. There was an issue with the key card reader when I arrived, but this was sorted quickly with no problem. The staff were super friendly and helpful. The hotel is in a great location for tours and for exploring the city centre. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here 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.

Center Hotels Arnarhvoll is clean and the staff is nice. It does not have a full gym, so some may be disappointed, but you can make good use of the free weights if you can endure the heat of the spa. With that said, this hotel's greatest advantage is its location. So many things and places are within walking distance of Center Hotels Arnarhvoll. Museums, restaurants, shopping areas, etc. All within a 20-minute walk of the hotel.

My husband and I stayed here for 3 days to celebrate our anniversary. We were so happy with the hotel — the staff were amazing and so helpful, our room was clean, the spa was beautiful, and the breakfast was excellent. We loved how close it was to everything as well, so we were able to walk everywhere. It was right across the street from the ocean, and up the street from restaurants and shops. We would definitely recommend this hotel!
