Orlygshofn Holidays from AU$1,288

We stayed at the Center Hotels Arnarhvoll in Reykjavik, Iceland in June 2026. The hotel was chosen primarily due to its location. The hotel is located near the waterfront, across from the Harpa Concert Hall. So it is a nice walk to/from bus stops, historic part of town, the church, and boat pier for whale and Puffin watching tours The rooms are small, but clean. Surprisingly, the shower is nothing that we have ever encountered! It shares the floor with the rest of the small bathroom, with a curved plastic door to keep water from hitting the bathroom door. Everything else gets wet. There is a squeegee provided to move water to the drain after showering. This was our biggest disappointment at the hotel. There is no air-conditioning, so there is a small window that can be opened to let in fresh air from outside. There is no screen in the window. The room had a big crack across the ceiling and some paint was chipping. Our room had 2 twin beds, a desk, 2 strange chairs, and a small refrigerator. The TV had some channels that had weak signal scrambling problems. The Wi-Fi worked fairly well, as it does in most of Iceland. My bed sheet had a small hole in it that was clearly visible on by the pillow area. So not perfectly maintained room. It was refreshed everyday, at our request. The breakfast cost extra to the room price, and was located on the top floor bar area. It had good food and an excellent view of the harbor and music hall. The front door needs to be aut

The perfect location, with everything you would need. We loved our stay and hope to be back!

The bathroom was a bit small, but the bed was very comfortable and staff were wonderful. Would definitely stay here again, in the heart of the city!

Centrally located in Reykjavik, we found the hotel's convenient location an excellent point for all the things we wanted to do in the city, and easy to leave the city by car for adventures around Iceland. The staff here was incredibly helpful and worked with us to find a room that was available for early check-in as our flight arrived early in the morning. The room was wonderful. It was spacious, and the kitchen amenities were a nice touch. Highly recommend this hotel.
