			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Halfway between Europe and America, flirting with the Arctic Circle, Reykjavik is anything but a frigid city. And it is certainly not the funky, offbeat elegance of the <a href="http://en.hotelborg.is" target="_blank">Hotel Borg</a>, which is going to deny it. Built in 1930 and restored in an Art Deco style, this prewar hotel, located just steps from the street Lauvagengur and the Icelandic Parliament, has quickly become a prestigious showcase for Reykjavik. At this point it was at one time the stronghold of the large transient state leaders and Hollywood stars. Marlene Dietrich, Anthony Hopkins, the King of Denmark settled down there.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-8855 aligncenter" title="hotel-borg-icelande" src="http://news-e.hoosta.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/hotel-borg-icelande-2.jpg" alt="hotel-borg-icelande" width="500" height="375" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If the tailor-made and eccentric charm of the place attractes visitors it is because it signs within its walls the new components of an avant-garde art. Chairs shaped like scallop, debauchery mirrors and gold stamping are still trying to distinguish themselves from a heavy wood paneling, warm colors and period furniture. The rooms relive  through the 30&#8217;s in a very contemporary interpretation. On a polished wooden floors, Hästens beds and the Philippe Starck items find their perfect balance with cream and chocolate walls decorated with artwork and unique prints.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-8856 aligncenter" title="hotel-borg-icelande" src="http://news-e.hoosta.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/hotel-borg-icelande-6.jpg" alt="hotel-borg-icelande" width="500" height="375" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Silfur restaurant is the place to be in Reykjavík. Its art deco new age dazzles the eye before the buds! Italian neobaroque lamps project their play of light on designer furniture and original Versailles chairs for a visual feast for the best effect. At the helms the chef Stemn Oskar Sigurdsson implements confusing compositions influenced by French cuisine with northern accents. Finally, remember that the shops, galleries and bars are on the doorstep of the hotel and take you on an urban unlimited journey!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-8857 aligncenter" title="hotel-borg-icelande" src="http://news-e.hoosta.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/hotel-borg-icelande-10.jpg" alt="hotel-borg-icelande" width="500" height="375" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Rates: starting from 296€ for a superior double room and 390€ for a suite.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Birth as an Icelandic, the interior designer Gull Jonsdottir was inspired by the nature of his country to imagine the design of <a href="http://www.centerhotels.com" target="_blank">CenterHotel Thingholt Reykjavík</a>. A huge source of inspiration as the diversity of its climate and its reliefs is the one that create the reputation of this island, situated in the middle of the Atlantic. Jonsdottir Gull creates from an ancient printing of a cozy and design hotel, between lava and ice, a perfect place to stay in the heart of the Icelandic capital.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-4469 aligncenter" title="centerhotel" src="http://news-e.hoosta.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/centerhotel-3.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="339" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Iceland is partially covered with ice, Gull Jonsdottir imagined a glossy and luxurious hotel bar: ebony soft sofas like a lounge bar, illuminated with large white chandeliers that seem to be frozen. On the ground, the animals skins give this polar universe cozy touches that make the hotel comfortable and soft. Just like on a particular island, we found in the hotel, the volcanoes melt the ice in Iceland: the black wall at the entrance seems to have been carved in a cooled lava and in a mask on the wall, flows clear water reminiscent of the geysers that can be admired throughout the country. A work of subtle art for this elegant and somber hotel, that gives an artistic dimension to each of its rooms by collaborating in the future with lots of Icelandic artists.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-4465 aligncenter" title="centerhotel" src="http://news-e.hoosta.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/centerhotel-4.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="339" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The 56 hotel rooms were also designed in colors and natural materials like white leather, gray scale or salmon. Elements of rough and wild, like the indomitable Iceland. In response to the decor and clarity, the hotel is a friendly place where you feel at home, thanks to a very friendly staff and services. Surrounded by bars, discos and trendy restaurants trends, CenterHotel Thingholt promises you a modern, luxurious and explosive stay in this country, where thousands of glaciers recovers the volcanoes.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-4466 aligncenter" title="centerhotel" src="http://news-e.hoosta.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/centerhotel.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="339" /></p>
<p>Prices: between 170 € and 380 €.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-4467 aligncenter" title="centerhotel" src="http://news-e.hoosta.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/centerhotel-1.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="339" /></p>
