This was by far our favorite place to stay in all of Iceland! Aesthetics were off the charts perfect, easily walkable to many amazing restaurants and shops. They have a restaurant attached but they were going through renovations at the time so we didn’t try it but even the free breakfast was amazing. The host and staff were so kind, we got snowed in and they had no issues with us extending our stay and recommended things to do in town. Free minibar snacks and drinks, the room was so cozy and quiet and even had heated bathroom floors. And the bathroom products smelled amazing! Can’t recommend it enough! It is a must if you are in Akureyri!!

Everything! Would definitely stay here again. Will be recommending to anyone traveling to Amureyri.
Nice place to stay while visiting sites in North Iceland.
Nice place to stay while visiting sites in North Iceland. We were able to see the Northern lights while there in early October, but our lodging was slightly out of the main city lights. Nice restaurants and easy to walk around. Botanical garden was a very nice place.

Great place for a day trip, or two.
Great place for a day trip, or two. Limited eating options (compared to Reykjavik). The lagoons (Forest lagoon / Myvatn) are worth a visit. There are of course also some nearby waterfalls. There's a fantastic petting zoo which is definitely not to be missed.

Nice small city . Surprisingly bug infested in late summer.
Nice small city . Surprisingly bug infested in late summer. Wonderful sights nearby. Very few free parking lots . Dettifoss was awe inspiring. There are steam venting sites worth visiting. There are crevasses separating American and European plates you can walk across caves and crevasses where Game of Thrones was filmed . Restaurant 23 is a great fish restaurant

Akureyri is a beautiful little town in N. Iceland.
Akureyri is a beautiful little town in N. Iceland. Super picturesque, at the base of a fjord. We booked a whale watching tour with Keli Sea Tours and saw humpback whales.
Everything is walkable and there are some great restaurants, especially Strikið, where I had the best piece of salmon I have ever eaten.
The botanical garden is free and beautiful. The kids loved the little Christmas house on the edge of town.
If you are driving the ring road, you must stop here!

We was looking for local food but no one. we could find only pizza, burger, fried chicken restaurant. And we was found food truck which owner is very rude, we not recommend there but anyway bakery at the corner was very good.
This lovely guesthouse is a gem. The rooms are clean, warm and cosy. But the best part of the stay is the lovely host Elisabeth. She offered to prepare us dinner, because the stay is away from any other restaurants. She allowed us access to the washer and drier, so we could clean and dry our bathing suits and towels. All the little handmade details, the selected decorations and dishes give this place a special soul. The breakfast was delicious also, with everything you could want. Would really recommend this stay.
Favourite hotel that I stayed in during my Iceland trip. Full length glass windows with views of mountains in the distance. 2 bedroom Suite – Master bedroom and smaller room with 2 single beds. Beds were so comfortable and quilt was fluffy and warm. Suite had private soaking tub overlooking snow capped mountains 😊
There was a kitchenette and barbeque grill – it would have been lovely to have a BBQ in the midst of this beautiful and tranquil surroundings. Hotel had a good buffet breakfast spread.
The location was walking distance to many shops and restaurants. The view from our room was the apartment building across the way plus a mini park with a slide- was fun if you like to people-watch. The bar/restaurant downstairs served a great breakfast with homemade eggs, bacon (was a bit too salty though!), melons/fruit, cereal, continental items, and many juices to choose from (plus coffee, etc.). Room had a tv, water kettle, and small refrigerator. There was a small kitchenette to use on our floor too!
- Location was perfect - managed to catch the northern lights. just on the outskirts of Akureyri, but no light pollution/noise
- The barman was exceptional. Answered any and all questions we had (even not about the hotel, about forecasts etc)
- Modern rooms (Netflix on the tv etc)
- Excellent breakfast buffet
- Free hot chocolates, tea, coffee on tap in the main area (open til 10, nice to sit in and relax, too). ask for milk if you need it
- great WiFi
- mini fridge in the room
the larger room was very comfortable . THE ONLY issue we had was the noise from the bar and it's patrons until 4am! my son and daughter in laws room was on the 2nd floor and at thr front of the hotel. they got absolutely NO sleep the 2nights we were there. if you stay there pay the extra money for the larger rooms on the 3rdfloor. it was near some very good restaurants.
The hotel is 3 min drive from the center and a bargain price to other places we stayed in. The staff was very accommodating after there was a mistake with the booking they even offered us free breakfast as a compensation. They have cottages however, we were in the hotel main building what was very clean.
This is an exceptional guesthouse, just outside Akureyri. The sharing bathrooms are clean and smell nice (the hot water in Iceland smells of sulfur, so this is quite a feat). And the breakfast was phenomenal. Akureyri, and this place, is a great base for exploring the northern parts of Iceland.
Location is great... a short walk to the town centre with lots of food. Windows overlook the water. Easy to spot from the main road. Breakfast is not included. Order directly from the restaurant. The waffles, skyr and salmon on toast were all delightful!
Beautiful hotel. Easy check in. Great location & easy parking. Wish we could’ve tried the restaurant & breakfast out but it was bank holiday. Not clear if the fridge drinks were included or not?
Need to fix the fan & mood lighting as it was flickering.
Comfortable beds, very good breakfast, very nice walking path to the shore, a lot of activities to do at the hotel, we tried: frisbee golf, table tennis, the hot tub, sightseeing tower.... Wonderful stay
Good place in the center of the city. All shops and restaurants - 5 minutes by walking. Rooms were clean, and it was very warm what is important in December. Breakfast is included but it is very basic.
I almost always stay at Icelandair hotel when I am in Akureyri so I like it really much. The rooms are really nice and comfy beds. The location is also good. Nice happy hour bar in the lobby.
The breakfast was not worth the price. I know this is a limited staff hotel but there could be more variety of food and coffee pods that work in the coffee machine in the dining are.
Conveniently located in the area full of shops and restaurants. Nice room, not very big but definitely ok for a short stay. Simple but good breakfast. Everything ok!
