Center Hotels Plaza

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in a good location, however the location is so centrally located the bars are playing loud music late. It’s not so bad on the weekdays but the weekends it goes pretty late. Even with a white noise machine we brought you could still hear the bass. Facing the plaza would definitely be the loudest. In the summer with no heat on we still needed to have the window open to get a cooler temperature. Which of course makes things louder. Other than the noise everything was great. There are some pretty good restaurants near the hotel as well."

Miðgarður by Center Hotels

8/10 Good

"The room was cleaned. Housekeeping only on request. Room was very basic, nothing like the 4 stars in other countries. Staff at the front desk were helpful and friendly. Breakfast was very basic. We had dinner in the restaurant on the day we arrived. It was 9pm, kitchen was about to close and they still served us. We enjoyed the meal."

Reykjavik Marina - Berjaya Iceland Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay, friendly staff and ideal location for excursions. Breakfast brilliant but expensive, though everywhere is expensive. Use the happy hours for cheaper food and drink, plus if you mention you are a guest of the hotel you get a discount, which unfortunately we only found out on our last night there. Also not mentioned if you forgo room cleaning you gain a credit to be used in the hotel, again we were not told till we were checking out. We still would return to this hotel but be more astute with all their discounts."
