I had a fantastic stay at Thingholt by Center Hotels! The location was a prime point for exploring Reykjavik, with major sites just a short walk away. The breakfast spread was impressive, offering a mix of hot and cold items that kept my mornings good. However, controlling the shower temperature was a bit tricky, which occasionally made my experiences less relaxing than expected.

The room was stylishly decorated with a modern Scandinavian touch, though I found it a bit small for my needs. Some features like the heated bathroom floors were great, but I struggled with limited storage and the shower setup could have been more convenient.

The staff here were incredibly friendly and helpful. Olivia at the front desk really stood out as she went above and beyond to assist me with settling into my room and navigating the city. However, there was one instance where another staff member seemed a bit nonchalant regarding a bathroom light issue I had.

While the hotel had a good array of facilities like a spa and gym, the shower controls in my room were somewhat challenging to manage. Once I figured it out, it was manageable, but it did add some stress to my mornings.

I had a great time at Thingholt By Center Hotels during my stay! The location was super convenient, making it easy to explore Reykjavík, but I did encounter some noise from the nearby nightlife that interrupted my sleep occasionally. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, especially when it came to booking tours and providing local recommendations. Overall, I’d rate my experience highly, though a peaceful night's sleep could be challenging on weekends.

The room was cozy and well-equipped, though on the smaller side for a city center. I appreciated the provided bathrobes and slippers. But I did struggle with the complex light switches and the occasional hit-or-miss heating.

The room was cozy and had good facilities, like a fridge, but it felt a bit worn and could use some upkeep. The unique glass wall in the bathroom was a quirky feature, but it might be a bit awkward for friends sharing the space.

Breakfast was plentiful with a great variety of options, although I did hope for smoked salmon given the local cuisine. Unfortunately, I didn’t dine for dinner at the hotel, likely due to it being less busy.

The hotel had a modern design and a few nice touches, but I felt like some of the amenities, like the spa facilities, weren't highlighted enough during my stay.
