"The Loft is one of Reykjavik’s leading hostels." Full review
Independent "The Double Deluxe Rooms are basic but cosy, with large windows overlooking Laugavegur, soft beds and small-but-functional tiled bathrooms. Guests also have access to the top-floor balcony cafe."
Frommer's "This lively, HI-affiliated hostel with a clean, minimalist vibe has become something of a hub of backpacker activity in Reykjavík. Most come for the four-, six-, and eight-bed dorm rooms." 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."

"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
