Reykjavik hotellit lähellä Free Church

Plussat: Everything about this hotel is fabulous! From the location to the decor everything is thoughtful and inviting. It was such a great surprise to us the breakfast was served each day, it was made so well and I even got ideas for how I want to make breakfast at home!

Miinukset: Nothing! We had such a great experience. Thank you!!

Plussat: The hotel decor in this hotel is really well designed. The lobby, the lounge, the restaurant & the rooms were all super cool. We loved it! We stayed in a really great room. It had a living room with a pullout that our 2 year old slept on & a great big king in the bedroom. The bathroom had a really cool clawfoot tub & big shower. I loved the decor in our room! Blackout curtains were great as we were jet lagged & the sun doesn't go down in the Summer iceland. Breakfast was yummy & the coffee was excellent. Everything is VERY expensive in Iceland but this hotel was pricey even for Iceland. Luckily we had a free night from hotels.com do we only had to pay the taxes. I'm very impressed with Canopy by Hilton though & hope to stay in another one of their hotels.

Miinukset: It was a bit noisy as our room was right on the busy road side of the hotel.

Plussat: The staff was lovely and very helpful. The facility itself was exceptional.

Plussat: The hotel was really unique I really liked the design the staff was very nice and accomadating

Plussat: Great staff - always available and always helpful!

Plussat: Nice, quiet residential street. Short walk to shopping area & tourist sights. Having a kitchen (with coffee pot, kettle, dishes, utensils, cooking pots, etc.) in our room was great, since eating out was so expensive. There were 9 of us in three apartments. All of our rooms had different lay-outs, and one of them had a large living room where we could all gather comfortably (Apt. 2) Very friendly, helpful innkeepers, also!

Plussat: No fuss, just go and enjoy. Loved being able to cook a bit since eating out is crazy expensive.

Miinukset: Parking spots are difficult sometimes. The water smelled of sulfur.

Plussat: The hotel is centrally located in Reykjavik and next door to some excellent restaurants. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable of the area.

Plussat: Location in town.

Miinukset: Ridiculous price for room that had no amenities. Paid five star price for two star motel. Room small, bed uncomfortable. Everything extra.

Plussat: Excellent location within walking distance to busy city center Great value for the money Friendly staff Prompt service from staff & housekeeping Nice little restaurant in the lobby

Miinukset: For some reason the TV was messed up most of the time (would get frozen on certain channels and would have to get up and turn it off). However, was not in the room much, so this was not a big issue.

Plussat: The location was very nice and central.

Miinukset: The hotel staff were rude and not helpful. One night there was so much noise from people talking and partying until 3:00 am. Could not sleep. The buses no linger pick you up at the hotel. It the walk to the bus stop is less than five minutes. It was still inconvenient with all our luggage. We did not know that when booking.

Plussat: Close to old parts of town. In fact, hotel is built over museum for first settlement.

Plussat: The breakfast was amazing. The best we had in Iceland! The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly and the rooms exquisitely clean!

Miinukset: It got a bit hot in the room at night, but it was a minor issue.

Plussat: Location was good.

Miinukset: Parking was listed but it was public parking. We had to drive around and parked a few blocks away.

Plussat: It was clean, desk staff were pleasant

Miinukset: The hotel had messed up the reservations. My reservation through Kayak was fine. However, a hotel block that was to be released 45 days before my arrival was still on the books (I was joining a hiking group) and they tried to get me to pay for that supposed reservation. In talking with the agency that had arranged the room block for this particular hiking group, this is not the first time that this hotel has done this. In addition, a friend of mine who had confirmed her reservation at Hotel Centrum before leaving the US, received an e-mail that they were overbooked and she had to go to another hotel---even though Hotel Centrum had double bookings and indeed did have rooms.

Plussat: Outstanding staff. Very clean. Very central. Convenient bar and restaurant.

Miinukset: Slow wifi.

Plussat: Location! You can not beat the location of the Centrum. Also the front desk staff is awesome. They can book all of your excursions for you and if you would like dinner reservations, they can suggest where and then make the reservations for you. The hotel bar happy hour was excellent if you like beer and craft cocktails.

Miinukset: The room size was a little small and there was no place for a second piece of large luggage. Also, even with the radiator in the off position, the room was extremely hot. We were forced to sleep with the windows open. The amount of noise coming from the street from cars and people at all hours of the night caused us not to get a good nights sleep in the 8 days that we were there. I wish I would have brought ear plugs.

Plussat: It was homely, comfortable room, nice surroundings, fantastic location, love the building on the corner of the centre of Reykjavik, close to the harbour and lots of great restaurants & cafes & museums. Steff were friendly, breakfast was nice.

Miinukset: Breakfast was pricey especially when you could get a huge cooked breakfast and warm coffee down the road for less. tea and coffee facilitirs in the room were poor, there were 2 of us and they didn't have pairs of the same kind of tea bag, no milk, small cups, little sugar, we bought ours from the supermarket. Internet which we paid for kept stopping working but when we called it was fixed and when we mentioned it again at checkout it was deducted from our bill, so was ok in the end.

Plussat: cafe and breakfast

Plussat: Having travelled extensively around the world, it was a pleasure to be greeted by service minded, smiling, friendly staff. The hotel was relaxing and stressless.

Miinukset: Maybe, a little more attention should be made to controlling the facilities inside the room. Ensure things are regularly maintained in the bathrooms with drips, leaks, and edges correctly sealed with silicon. Minor issue, but essential to retain the hotel profile

Plussat: The Hotel staff was very friendly and helpful in giving suggestions about places to visit, providing maps of the city, and arranging the shuttle to the airport. The Location is perfect, right in the centre of the city and close to shops, restaurants, the city lake, and sites. I think it's so unique that the hotel is above a Viking settlement (museum). I Loved this hotel!

Miinukset: Although the breakfast is great, I do think it's a bit pricey per person (14 euros or $18 canadian).

Plussat: Staff are very helpfull , location of the hotel - it is very central.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: They have problems with American Express payments but not taking care of it

Plussat: service, warm hearted staff

Plussat: Proximity to the town center, cleanliness of the room

Miinukset: The cost of our New Year's Day meal ($160 per person was too high) and the meal was mediocre (at best)

Plussat: Freindly and helpful hotel staff

Plussat: centrally located

Miinukset: poor breakfast

Plussat: I really loved the hotel. Its about a 5 min walk either the shopping/bar areas or the water! But the staff was extremely helpful with everything!! They kept the hotel spotless and were great at suggestions for everything we inquired about! I would definitely stay there again!

Plussat: Our stay at the storm hotel was wonderul. The person at the desk even went out of their way to call our tour company when we missed out bus. The tour company sent a small van to just pick us up. So thankful for that desk person!

Plussat: + Only 5-10 mins to citycenter. Perfect for a nice walk through the heart of Reykjavik. + Clean and modern + Good complimentary continental breakfast + Happy Hours everyday + Onsite Parking

Plussat: We liked the location near city center and the view out our 3rd floor balcony. The room was spacious and comfortable. The shower was especially welcome after a day of horseback riding and sightseeing. The restaurant in the hotel, Snaps was very accommodating by seating us near closing. They served an excellent meal.

Miinukset: On street parking was a little unnerving but turned out fine. It seems that after 6:30pm free parking on the streets is a free-for-all in Reykjavik with anything goes.

Plussat: The front desc staff were absolutely wonderful and most helpful in both the usual ways and also in requests that were less common, Like coming out to help me use the parking meter

Miinukset: We liked everything

Plussat: Amazing staff and perfect location!

Miinukset: Room was a bit on the small side.

Plussat: Attractive Scandinavian decor, perfect location, cheerful and knowledgeable 24 hour staff.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Working on the room above use for two days. Couldn't. Be in our room during the day to relax. While on vacation till after 18:00..

Plussat: The location was great with plenty of street parking nearby. We are only a few blocks away from the main church. You can easily walk anywhere n the Reykjavik area. The room was also comfortable and very clean. The Snaps restaurant is also great for a meal.

Plussat: Perfect location, great duvet cover & bed

Miinukset: No mirror in bedroom

Plussat: The location of the hotel is perfect for walking around the shops and grabbing dinner.

Miinukset: Our room was really small especially the shower. We both banged our arms on it trying to shower. Not what we are used to.

Plussat: The front desk staff was amazing. They helped us several time with questions we had We rented one of their apartments for a couple days and it was huge. Wonderful street views and easy walking distance to everything you need. We never ate at their restaurant but we have heard is very good and reasonably priced.

Plussat: Great location. Easy waking distance to harbor area. Very nice staff. Very good Breakfast. Restaurant extremely busy every night with locals and tourists so difficult to have dinner without reservation.

Miinukset: Very noisy until after midnight every night as patrons exited restaurant/bar and hung around on street below our bedroom. Recommend you request room at back of hotel or bring earplugs

Plussat: Very central and for Reykjavik excellently value.

Miinukset: Breakfast and locale

Plussat: Location, view from room and very service minded staff.

Plussat: Nice room in great location. Simple, elegant hotel. Would definitely stay again.

Plussat: The friendly front desk staff + the view of city/harbor from the room.

Miinukset: No on-site parking. Free parking in nearby lot from 6 p.m to 10:00 am...I had to get up and move the car to an area about four blocks away for the rest of the day...otherwise pay about $ 1. per hour to park.

Plussat: The location and welcomig atmosphere. Easy to reach everywhere.

Plussat: siisti, erittäin hyvällä paikalla mutta tasoon nähden ylihintainen. Palvelu ystävällistä

Miinukset: Kulunut ja vanhahtava, aamianen leipää, kahvia ja juustoa, ei mitään lämmitettyä/paistettua/keitettyä,

Plussat: Hyvä näköala huoneesta. Raikas ilma.

Plussat: Extremely helpful staff; great room and food

Plussat: They served breakfast was from 7-10am, which was great for us late risers...also the food was great with lots of choices. The hotel was in a great location for walking downtown to eat/shop. The staff was very helpful. Our room was nice with a beautiful 4th floor view of the city.

Miinukset: The restaurant was closed for a month for renovations. It would have been nice to know this, but it was not on the hotel's website.

Plussat: Very good, though quite expensive meal

Plussat: outstanding food at the restaurant

Plussat: Very near centre of city.

Miinukset: We weren't notified in advance that Centerhotel had moved us to another hotel. We were exhausted from traveling and would have appreciated nothing more than going to sleep at the hotel we booked. The staff at the Arnarhvoll did order a taxi that took us to the new hotel. The hotel we were bumped to, Centerhotel Plaza, was in a better location in the downtown.

Plussat: Breakfast buffet is good and great views from the restaurant Room kept clean Staff friendly and helpful

Miinukset: Some cracks showing on the walls in the bedroom and the shaving mirror didn't light up show that it needs a little bit of attention on the maintenance front but nothing that impacted my comfort. The pillows were feather and were not very comfortable for me as I prefer a firmer synthetic pillow.

Plussat: The design of the hotel is great. Its very modern and sleek. The views are fantastic. Whether you're at the Sky Lounge or the comfortable lobby, you can clearly see the beautiful harbor and mountain range. The location of the hotel is also great. Its right by the downtown area and can easily walk to the strip without the barrage of traffic. The hotel is also 5 minutes from many museums and shops by the harbor and beyond.

Miinukset: Because of the central location, space is tight. The room offers minimal storage and the bathroom has a convertible shower that takes advantage space. The design was beautiful but the quarters were close. The breakfast was OK. It was the first meal I had where fish was not an option. The crumbled eggs were dry and actually crunchy. Bacon was either burnt or raw. However, the view from the top of the hotel easily distracted these inconveniences.

Plussat: A great hotel, staff great, great location

Plussat: Restaurant at top floor with views that make your breakfast memorable. Nice room. Free of charge parking.

Plussat: great location, quiet as can be but near everything in the centre-- lovely room with amazingly comfy bed, and terrific staff. Breakfast is great, as well! Terrific hotel!

Miinukset: not applicable.

Plussat: Our room was kept quite clean. We also paid a 10 euro charge to use the spa area which was a very nice ammenity.

Miinukset: There was very little room for unpacking clothing and storing luggage. However my wife and I were able to manage with the hanging rods and shelves provided (no dressers). The shower is a bit odd since there is no tub and just a swinging door, but after the first use we figured out how to minimize the wetness and made sure to shower with the door and window cracked to remove moisture more quickly. As others said, there is an issue with air circulation but we opened the window and were fine (we were there mid September). However this may not be a workable option during the winter. There was also construction which unfortunately blocked some of the panoramic views but was surprisingly quite and did not seem to interrupt our rest.

Plussat: Lovely linens and light airy rooms.

Miinukset: The fact the it is adjacent to a large construction site and this was not advertised. Hairs on the bed when I checked into my room. Poor value for money.

Plussat: Nice rooms, comfortable beds.Very good location.Buffet breakfast good including Icelandic selections.

Miinukset: Bathroom small and modernist rather than functional.

Plussat: Aamiaishuoneen näkymät hienot

Miinukset: Huonevaraus jätetty huomioimatta ja vaohdoimme kolme kertaa huonetta; ensimmäiseen mahtui vain vuode, toisessa kylpyhuoneessa todella paha haju, kolmas hyvä

Plussat: Aamiainen ok. Henkilökunta auttoi lennon netticheck-innissä. Nettikone käytössä ilmaiseksi.Hiljainen huone.

Miinukset: Likaiset ikkunat. Huone vähän karu..

Plussat: Erinomainen aamiainen ja keskeinen, hyvä sijainti kaupungissa Rauhallista.Hinta ainakin sesongin ulkopuolella todella edullinen tasoon nähden.

Miinukset: Huone ehkä vähän ahdas, varsinkin jos on paljon talvi-ja retkeilyvarusteita mukana.

Plussat: Yksinkertaisen tyylikäs sisustus ja ilme. Siisti ja käytännöllinen huone. Miellyttävät vastaanottovirkailijat. Rentouttava pieni spa-osasto.

Miinukset: Aamupalan sisältö olisi voinut vaihdella hiukan enemmän viikon aikana. Aamupalan asiakaspalvelu oli varsin pidättyväistä. Siivojat kolkuttelivat välillä hiukan liian aikaisin oveen.

Plussat: Aamiainen oli erittäin hyvä. Hotellissa oli oikea sauna ja mukava lämmin istuma-allas. Henkilökunta oli avuliasta ja puhui erittäin hyvää englantia. Ravintolassa oli myös illalla erinomaista ruokaa. Hotellista sai varattua kaiken mahdollisen eikä turisti-infoa tarvittu.

Miinukset: Yleisissä käytävissä leijui hirvittävä ruoan haju koko ajan. Ilmastointi oli huoneissakin huono, eli tuuletus ikkunan kautta. Hotellista ei saanut aamupalan ja päivällisajan välillä mitään pientä syötävää. Hotelli sijaitsi rannassa ja ruokapaikat lähellä mutta korkeammalla joten liikuntaesteisille epäsopiva.

Plussat: Location near the city center. Transportation from the airport well organised. Nice view from the breakfast room.

Miinukset: The window did not close properly, bringing important noise from the street.

Plussat: 24 hours reception, close to the center

Plussat: Well laid out and spacious rooms. Comfortable beds. Great location and super friendly, helpful staff

Miinukset: Washing machine would be nice! They offer a service but I’d prefer to do my own

Plussat: Classy breakfast buffet, wide spaces in the dorm rooms, not too cramped, evening shift front desk worker "Gary the Great" is a not a cool friendly dude, but extremely helpful.

Plussat: Friendly staff,decent location, clean dorms, nice locker for suitcase.

Miinukset: Not having bathrooms for both sexes on both sides of the floor. Layout of dorms not great. Bad internet

Plussat: Staff was very responsive to our request to change rooms. Rooms had a nice (small) outside sun deck.

Miinukset: It's a little far from the tourist area (shops and restaurants) but that might be an advantage as we got more exercise.

Plussat: This review is about the two floors of the hotel which are a hostel, not a hotel. They lend you a tiny (nearly a joke, I guess) lock to put on the small cubby boxes in the room. 1000ISK deposit. The kitchen contains dishwashers.

Miinukset: I stayed in a room with 12 or 14 beds. The doors on these rooms are "underdamped", meaning they are designed or adjusted to slam very very loudly if you let them close by themselves. It shakes not just the room, but is even obnoxious during the day if you're in a common kitchen or lounge down/across the hall. The door in my room was slammed AT ALL HOURS of the day except 12h30 -- 03h00 a.m. by the absurdly inconsiderate guests. The problem is that there is no effort by the hostel to tell people how to behave, and for some reason a large cross-section of the sample of young travellers in my room seem entirely oblivious to the surely-obvious effects of their actions on other people. There were no quiet hours announced. No one was told to close doors quietly. I was dumbfounded how people stayed up shouting, drinking, etc inside the dorm room (there are couches) until midnight, even when others were obviously trying to sleep, and the same people when they were on a different schedule, were up at 03h a.m. sharp talking loudly, and slamming the door countless times again. I mentioned to the staff that there was an educational solution (maybe) to this problem, but they didn't seem very interested. In addition to all that, the rooms, which look nothing nice as clean as in the pictures online (of course), have little cubby boxes below the beds where you supposedly can lock your valuables. The locking tabs are a bit of a joke, maybe, but in my room several were actually broken off anyway, so there was no way to lock them. This was my worst hostel experience ever.

Plussat: laid back fun atmosphere

Miinukset: There was nothing I didn't like

Plussat: Just the cutestest hostel ever. Very trendy, clean and comfortable. Spacious rooms, clean bathrooms and showers. Guests were very respectful. Had no trouble sleeping in the evenings. Great bar and sitting area in the reception area to drink and meet other travelers. Food was delicious at the restaurant. Excellent location, located on the main road, central in downtown. Most tours pick up just outside their door steps, as well as local bus stops. Although, it's easy to walk everywhere from there. Absolutely, love it and hope to stay there again one day.

Miinukset: No negatives.

Plussat: Decent price and location

Miinukset: Much dirtier in person Kitchen appliances don't work (stoves, ovens, microwaves) so use and need of kitchen is pointless People staying there do not clean their dishes, and cleaning crew doesn't do them either, so there's always a sink full of dirty dishes and no utensils. Advertises soap and shampoo provided yet they give 1 tiny bottle of shampoo that people end up stealing so no soap or shampoo Same with the soap in the bathrooms. No soap. Checked out a day early (almost 30 hours early) yet told that no refund would be given because not given 24 hours notice (?)
