Central Guesthouse Reykjavik

The worst and most terrible! You may waste a WHOLE AFTERNOON here to wait the host and fail to check-in! We booked one room very early, and when we arrived, there is nobody there. They put the keys with names in entrance, but we didn't find our names and keys. We called the hotel for two hours and nobody answered!! Also nobody answered emails and texts in time. We waited there for a whole afternoon and failed to find a person for check-in. We also missed our booked sky lagoon slot because of wasting hours there. Obviously the administration is messy and unresponsive. Finally we still cannot reach them so we change to another hotel. Please also note this room is NON-REFUNDABLE!!!

Best is location a block to a lake with swans and ducks, 4 blocks to Rainbow Street and shopping and restaurants. Negative is parking not as stated and no one was there when they said they would be. You have to figure everything out for yourself.

After reading so many negative reviews, I was afraid that our keys wouldn't be waiting for us or that there would be bed bugs. None of that happened and we loved the place! Just as described in the email, we used the access code to get into the lobby, and our keys were there waiting for us with our names on them. It took us a few minutes to find the doors to our studios, but we found them and they were quite spacious, with 4 twin beds and a kitchen and a bathroom in each studio. It would have been preferable to have someone there to greet us and check us in, but that's probably why the price for these studios was so reasonable. The location is right in the middle of numerous nice restaurants and bars. I highly recommend!

Older rooms and not terribly quiet between rooms but great to have access to a kitchen to make breakfast or lunch. Nice walkable location and bus stop right out front. Overall, pleased with stay.

Parking provided is normal public paid parking 8n Reyjyavik which is free after 6pm until 9am.

The previous day our reservation was canceled, but we were still charged the amount on our credit card. Do not book.

They cancel the reservation the sane day of the check in snd charged me!!! ******* and this guesthouse at the Moment stole 185 euro from me and cause ne troubles during My holidays.

I hai ti call ti talk with the not that Ford not understand anything to chat to send email and yes there is no respinse!

I like that it was clean. That our four beds were pretty comfortable and it was in walking distance to a lot of stuff. The parking was confusing I didn't see any free parking anywhere had to park in the street where it was required to pay. But it was pretty safe I wasn't worried about my vehicle.

BED BUGS!!!!! We stayed in room 6. Our child slept on the day bed. My husband and I on the two singles that were next to each other. My child was bit dozens of times in one night! I have contacted the property about this through two different platforms and have not heard back. We inspected our backpacks which were thankfully zipped most of the time and did not pick up any additionally travelers. Nonetheless we paid 25 pounds at our next location to have all of our clothes professionally laundered.
