Welcome to Center Hotels, where hospitality feels like a warm family embrace! We're not just any hotel chain; we're a cozy, Icelandic, family-operated ensemble nestled right in the heart of Reykjavík's lively center. We began our journey with a small guesthouse back in 1994 and have, over the years, blossomed into a city-centered hotel chain with a family of 9 hotels in total, each boasting various services such as restaurants, bars, meeting rooms, and spa facilities. But here's the real cherry on top: every single one of our hotels is situated right in the heartbeat of Reykjavík. That means you're smack-dab in the middle of all the cool stuff – the artsy vibes, the mouth-watering eats, and the can't-miss cultural spots. And because we're all about keeping it real, our team is made up of folks who live and breathe Iceland. Whether you're here to explore your roots or just soak up the Icelandic charm, we're on a mission to make sure your stay feels nothing short of genuine. Trust us to be your home away from home and your insider guide to everything Icelandic.
