    Not a phone in the room to contact someone. The reception was the same with the bar area and gave you the sensation of something cheap

    It was close to the center of the town. It was pretty clean and comfortable bed . Nice view They paid attention to my request of baby cot free of charge.

    It was very warm in the room and hard to have the window open since staff was smoking right below the window and the room started to smell like cigarettes. However after calling the lobby it stopped and it was a very nice lady who answered the phone. It get really loud outside with people partying during the weekend until 3-4 am. If it would’ve been possible to sleep with window closed, there would’ve been no problem.

    The location is great for people who are going to explore the town. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was nice and clean. The bed was comfortable.

    A strategic stop for anyone on a road trip. The property is very welcoming and the staff is fantastic. On the ground floor, there’s a restaurant/bar where we had two excellent Icelandic gin and tonics. Great breakfast.

    The room was small and the furniture old. There was only one night stand and bed side lamp and sockets only on that side of the bed. On the other side was a small cooler. The wall behind it was scratched. When we asked for croissants that had run out at breakfast we were told that they didn’t think they would need more, so now we would have to wait half an hour for a new batch. The same applied to the bread.

    Great location, decent price.

    Nice and comfortable hotel in a central location
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Twin Room

    The room was described in the Booking.com listing as having a city view. However, the two rooms that I stayed in were at the rear of the hotel and overlooked a courtyard surrounded by what appeared to be views of apartment blocks. This may be confusion between the hotel and Booking.com as to what types of room are being available; if so, the discrepancy needs to be corrected. It didn't seem right to make an issue of this at the time, having already been moved to a new room! The area was a bit noisy on the Saturday night/early hours of Sunday from some people walking through the city centre after a night out, but this had already been identified in reviews on other hotels in the area that were featured on Booking.com and was therefore not a surprise.

    There were a couple of technical issues identified in my room after my first night staying at the Centrum, which were quickly, helpfully and generously sorted out for me for the remaining two nights by moving me to a better room. Friendly service from the staff. Very good breakfast with lots of variety. Very welcoming and comfortable bar area, with meals available. Very good location in the centre of Akureyri, close to shops, bars, eateries etc. A five minute walk from the Hof concert hall (which was also where the stop for the airport bus is located), and in the other direction to the very distinctive mid-20th century church. About twenty minutes' walk to the Gleraraug shopping mall. And don't forget to take the opportunity to go whale-watching on the fjord and obviously make the most of any opportunity to see the Northern Lights.

    The beat of the music from the downstairs bar could be easily heard, it didn't stop us sleeping though.

    An alright room above a decent bar with friendly staff that does nice food. They have a small separate kitchen area off the landing for tea/coffee plus microwave etc to allow a slightly broader range of self-catering food options than most hotels.
