I love the location and it was clean and comfortable

Anna

Found it comfortable, but the location was not to our liking. Busy street and very loud restaurant with blaring music next door. We didn’t know the city before and perhaps should have done more research on the location first. Very convenient, but too loud for us!

Very nice hotel in a great location. Family run by very accommodating people.

Seneca

I like the location. Also check in and out processes were automized which was great. Just it is important to keep an eye on the e-mail as they send the entrance code via e-mail.

Very centrally located and great food downstairs. Staff was very helpful and friendly!

Ryan

Great location, attentive staff and very clean!!! Will definitely stay again when back in Rey!

Datsal

United States of America

Location is excellent - can walk to absolutely anything in Reykjavik in just minutes. Even can walk 15 minutes to main bus station where most tours and busses to airport leave from. Don't pay the extra pick up fee if you stay here and book a tour! Room was simple and straightforward. Small kitchen is available on the third floor for simple meals which is always nice in Reykjavik where going out to eat is expensive!

Place is in mainstream street. Everything is near by. We really enjoyed our stay.

An Inside Look at Centric Guesthouse

The house was built in 1904 which makes it one of the oldest houses in Reykjavik. You will feel it when you enter the front door and you will hear it when you walk the stairs. It has played a big role in Reykjavik history for instance was the telecommunication service in this house at the time of the second world war. Since then it has hosted many buisnesses, for instance photo developing company and camera repairing, optical studio and clock repairing. Many restaurants have been at our first floor and today we have Messinn, who is popular seafood restaurant.

“Good central location shame about the noise and lack of toilet paper”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group
There was no toilet paper and I couldn't get in touch with anyone for more. We had to close the windows as the noise from the bar downstairs was loud, albeit we went to bed early. The soundproofing wasn't good enough to keep the road noise out even with the windows closed. The shower didn't look like it had been cleaned properly.
The location was good, right in the center of town near a lot of places to eat and shops. The twin beds were very comfortable and the shower had good pressure and was hot.
