Description

Centrum Hotel in Akureyri is a 3-star property offering a wide range of room types from Economy Double rooms with city views to Royal Suites and Apartments with balconies. The hotel provides essential services such as free WiFi, a restaurant and bar, luggage storage, and free parking. Rooms vary significantly in size and layout, with some recent renovations noted but with mixed guest feedback on functionality and amenities. Notably, the hotel does not provide TVs or in-room internet passwords by default, which has been a point of contention among guests. The hotel is air-conditioned and features shared kitchen facilities and grocery delivery, appealing for travelers who prefer self-catering options. While customer service receives praise, particularly for staff members like Barbara, there are also reports of problematic interactions with management. Overall, Centrum Hotel is a centrally located accommodation with practical amenities but mixed reviews on comfort and service.

Amazing location on the main street! Stylish, relaxed atmosphere. Bar & great restaurant with quality food. Extra special thank you to the wonderful Barbara who is an absolute diamond 💎 Exceptional customer service person with a twinkle in her eye and made all her customers feel very welcomed and special. You are definitely in the right job! 10/10 and give her a raise 😎👏

It’s a small room with full of small kitchen. We can cook a small plate in the room. The bathroom is small but not bad for a price and location.

This is not a hotel as you will expect! No tv in room and by the time you've put 2 suitcases on the floor and rack there is hardly room to move!! One has to climb over your partner to get into bed as there isn't space to walk around your bed!! The restaurant next door is excellent with good food.

We have stayed at this place a few times, but this was most likely our last visit.

The room was spacious and recently renovated, but it felt as if the renovation had not been fully completed. There was neither a TV nor a radio, and there was no internet access without a password — a password that was nowhere to be found in the room.

The room layout appeared poorly thought out and not particularly functional.

We stayed on the top floor with a balcony, which was probably the best part of the room. The elevator that took us up must have been ordered from Temu, because each trip felt like it took a full year :-)

We had originally booked two nights, but on the final day we considered extending our stay by one or two additional nights. That idea quickly faded when we asked for the price — the cost for the extra nights was double the price we had paid for the previous nights, even though we had received no housekeeping service. The towels, the extra pillow we requested on the first day, and the additional cushion we asked for never arrived.

The only thing I can truly recommend is the location, which is excellent. Other than that, I would strongly suggest considering alternative accommodation options when visiting Akureyri.

Luxury orientation on rooms with early released to public, no tv-excuse 'speak to each other' bold but very risky excuse to not have tv in the room, not even WiFi password....no coffee, no tea..again no explanation. Defo not worth 40k to extend for 3rd night. Especially when there is upgrade suit for 30k with mountain view next door, with elevated service ready to discover. Choices to improve are there, choose wisely 😉

Excellent location, room and amenities. The service was also good.

The only flaw is the lack of a kitchen, everything is brand new.
18.07.2025 zhangjun
The sofa bed is not very comfortable to sleep on, but the other room facilities are good and you can cook.
