Grandi by Center Hotels
REALLY enjoyed this hotel and would stay here easy on a future trip. I esp liked the greeting of sweets when I came into the hotel room and my welcome msg on the flatscreen. This was my 5th scheduled trip to Reykjavik- but fulfilled 4th trip! This was my fav hotel, thus far. Clean, good 15 min walk ...
