Super nice staff and great location (you can take the free shuttle from the cruise terminal here). The room and bathroom was very small. I found the price high but that is the norm in Iceland.

This particular Center Hotel “Arnarhvoll” has a breakfast buffet but does not have any other dining options available in the hotel. There are options within walking distance which are good. It’s a detail we missed when making our booking. Spectacular seaside views from the rooftop area. Staff were very helpful and friendly. We would stay there again.
