CenterHotel Plaza  

Good location, super service, nice breakfast

Perfect location in downtown Reykjavik, easy access to the shopping street, restaurant - everywhere. The hotel itself was quite ok, nothing special thou. The room was small and so was the bathroom, the drain was blocked which made the use of sink pretty uncomfortable. The bed was good and the room was clean. Breakfast was pretty basic but ok. The breakfast room was too crowded thou. The view from the room as real great (main square) but it was pretty noisy until around 5 am. That didn't bother us thou. An ok hotel, nothing special thou.

The location and breakfast were excellent. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would go back again.

The room could have been a little bigger considering we had upgraded to superior room. Annoyingly the bathroom light lit up the bedroom through a glass panel in the wall and there was no coat hooks. Petty but frustrating

Very good location, great design, friendly staff

We had little misunderstanding at the check in, where our room got also people after us

The location

The staff at the reception desk was a bit helpless. The tv did not work. The shower was not functioning very well. The bed linen was rather worn.

Our room faced the backyard and was quiet, in spite of the location at a central square in the old town

There was only a small elevator in our part of the buidling and no access by stairs. We occasionally had to wait forever to get to our room. It also gave me a creepy feeling if we for some reason had to flee the building. No wireless internet access. Bathroom sink was completely blocked. Breakfast room in the basement was not nice.

The room 441 was much better than 136 which was like a 1 star hotel. The room was comfortable and cleaned every day, but it was not vacuumed every day as the same white piece of paper wasin the same place every day.

Could not use my Mac in my room nor my iPad. Normally I stay at Tingolt which has WiFi in the rooms. Might be a good idea to have at service available.

Very central location and an efficient breakfast buffet.

Does exactly what it says on the tin, you can shower and sleep here.

Cleaness, modern design and good location.

It would be better if wi-fi was covered all rooms.

Everything was clean and new, and the room was very cosy. A really nice experience to stay there. And the location right in city center was perfect.

The hotel was right in the city centre, very convenient for getting to restaurants & shops (2 minute walk) and right next door to the Tourist Board Centre for booking activities. The hotel staff were extremly helpful, informative & friendly. We booked a Superior Double room which exceeded our expectation, clean, modern but very cosy and the beds were extremely comfortable. I would't say this would suit a family with young children. Highly recommended for business, city break or holiday.

As the hotel is bang in the city centre, Friday & Saturday nightlife can get a little rowdy into the early hours (depending on where your room is situated in the hotel) but this certainly didn't bother us but is worth mentioning. Breakfast was very nice (continental or eggs/sausages etc) but there was no varient, so if you are staying for more than a week it may get a little boring. Lastly, you can put any valuables in a safe at Reception but it would have been preferable to have a safe in the room so you didn't have to keep asking Reception to retrieve items. All of the above are minor points though, our stay at the hotel was fantastic and we highly recommend CentrePlaza.

CenterHotel Plaza has a great location in the heart of downtown Reykjavik. Lots of great restaurants and shopping in the area. Close to the harbor. It can be noisy at night - we were frequently awoken by people outside at 4am. The hotel itself is nice - nothing too fancy and our room was small but functional (lots of drawer and closet space) and the bathroom was modern and clean. Tiny but powerful shower although getting attacked by the shower curtain was annoying! Breakfast is fantastic - huge range of foods - fruit, cereal, eggs, bacon, bread, salad - so you can fill up pretty well. When the hotel is full on the weekend or when people can't leave because of a volcanic eruption (!) the breakfast room does get very crowded so recommend eating early or late. It's open from 7 - 10am which is also nice.

Supposed to have wired internet in the room but I couldn't get it to work so had to take laptop into lobby to access wireless. Would be nice if whole hotel had wireless and probably wouldn't be that hard to do.

Great view of Reykjavik through big windows of our top floor room (especially given the modest rates.) The staff was friendly and helpful, quickly accommodating our request for a room with a queen bed instead of twins.
