Fodor's "Across the street from the hilltop church of Hallgrímskirkja, this hotel is a short walk from most of Reykjavík's major attractions. Some guest rooms have balconies." Full review
Frommer's "The rooms of this family-run hotel are small and uninspired, with narrow beds, small bathrooms, and generic furniture -- but the location and friendly, relaxed atmosphere are key." Full review

There are many to choose from now in the city center, and the Plaza and Hotel Centrum sparkle a little more.
Lonely Planet "In the same family-run CenterHotel group is this old town house, round the corner on Laugavegur, with grandma-style orange-and-green decor. The curved corner rooms are best."
OysterBudget
"The 33-room CenterHotel Skjaldbried is a two-and-a-half-pearl property located on the city’s main shopping street and a short walk from lots of hip cafes and bars." Full review
