Some of the best views Reykjavik has to offer
If you’re after a modern and stylish stay complete with some of the best views in Reykjavik, the Center Hotels Arnarhvoll is the place to be. Situated near the waterfront, this hotel overlooks the bay and mountains in the distance, as well as the spectacular Harpa concert hall just across the road.
From the lobby to the rooms, everything at the Centerhotel Arnarhvoll has been designed with style and Scandi touches in mind. Whether you’re into whale watching or bar hopping, head out and explore Reykjavik and look forward to returning to a room full of comfort each evening. Release any stresses you might have at the spa (access is subject to a one-time extra charge). You can get your heart rate up on the cardio machines before settling down for a stress-busting massage, followed by some time spent relaxing in the hot tub or sauna.
The rooftop Sky Bar is an absolute must-see. Located on the seventh floor of the hotel overlooking the harbour, be wowed by views of the mountains and, if you're lucky, the Northern Lights. A plentiful buffet breakfast is served here in the mornings, and later on you can also sip on delicious house cocktails. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy the view – there's also occasional live music in the evenings.
Right outside the hotel is one of the main bus stops for excursions to popular attractions in the wider region, while the Old Harbour, the Sun Voyager and Laugavegur are all within easy walking distance as well, so this really is an ideal spot to make the most of your time in the Icelandic capital.
At the Center Hotels Arnarhvoll, the little touches make a big difference.

Find out more about Reykjavik City
As you traverse the lunar-like lava fields that characterise the landscape around Keflavik, Iceland’s main international airport, you may feel like you’ve arrived on another planet. A soak in the steaming, milky blue waters of the Blue Lagoon may further solidify that impression. Once you arrive in Reykjavik, though, you’ll discover a city with a cool, cosmopolitan vibe, a flourishing food and drink scene, and a kaleidoscope of brightly painted houses that offer endless satisfying photo opportunities.
