Centerhotel Midgardur

We arrived into Reykjavik pretty early and got to the hotel by Flybus at 9 am and were given a warm welcome by the fabulous hotel staff. Check in time was 2 pm so we planned to leave our bags in storage and go exploring the city. We were pleasantly surprised as our room became available and Leah offered early check in immediately. After a red eye journey it was a welcome relief to rest, shower and change. This hotel’s location is ideal for transportation, dining, shopping, and sightseeing. Bus stop 13 and a taxi stand are right outside the hotel. The room and bathroom was spacious, bedding pretty comfortable. A hot breakfast consisting of scrambled eggs, sausage, cold meats, cheese cereals was available with many options. There was also early breakfast available at the bar with coffee and croissants from 3.30am and great for folks who have an early departure or excursions. There is live entertainment on Thursday evenings with extended happy hour (half price beer) so we took advantage of that. There is also a gym and spa with indoor and outdoor hot tubs, we did not take the spa package, however on one day our excursion was cancelled due to bad weather and Ana felt sorry and gave us free access to the spa to enjoy our day, this was so thoughtful. I have to make a special mentioned to Ana, Alice and Leah who were super friendly and very helpful in answering questions about sightseeing, dining, and shopping.

The room doors are pretty heavy and slam shut on entry and exit that you can hear the thuds from other rooms, it did not bother us but it may for any light sleepers. Other than that nothing negative and we really enjoyed our stay.
