Great parking availability and location. Close to excellent restaurants and bars (like R5). Very cool decor and facilities, which were clean and comfy. The staff very very friendly and the breakfast was a great way to start the day.

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.
The bungalow was very comfortable and cosy, located in the woods. Fairytale and very romantic place. There is a queen size bed, video option with movies, table and small kitchen inside. The bathroom was enough big. We will recommend for dinner the Eyri restaurant on the lake, only 10 minutes away from the property. It´s a gourmet one (higher price level) but all very tasty with an excellend wine choice. Near Akureyri we will highly recommend also to visit the Forest Lagoon (thermal baths).
- 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
Loved the location, the room, the breakfast and the staff behaviour. The northern lights viewing point, the hot tub, the sauna, the snooker table and the dart board were amazing value add-ons. They had coffee/tea/hot cocoa through the day at their restaurant, and a kitchenette to microwave meals. Highly recommended stay option near Akureyri. Special shoutout to Karl for his warm welcome and hospitality throughout our three night stay.
The hotel was right in the town center and everything is within walking distance. There is parking on street and around - for free after 4pm and until 10am on weekdays (super convenient).
The room was large and luxurious and staff was super friendly (TV was not working and they offered us a discount on dinner since we decided to eat there). Food was delicious (dinner and breakfast).
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.
I have always liked staying at this hotel when i have stayed in Akureyri, before it changed from its name and other bought it. It is not the same hotel as before but the location is good and I didn’t have breakfast because it is too expensive and not worth spending all that money
The self check-in was nice so we could arrive at any time. The use of the kitchenette in the morning was ideal to make some breakfast for our family. It was about a 10 minute walk to downtown. The town was lovely to walk around and had some nice stores and restaurants.
There's Netflix. Location very strategic as it's in the city centre. Great options for food as there are many restaurants around. Great cafe just across the hotel for breakfast. Description of getting and finding a parking space is very helpful
The staff was incredible. The view of the mountains were beautiful and the location to Akureyri was so convenient. The breakfast was very nice with your choice of specialty coffee machine. Highly recommend.
I stayed at multiple places in Iceland and this was by far the largest and fanciest!
In-hotel restaurant, hot tub, absolutely stunning views and the staff was incredibly friendly/accomodating!
This hotel has nice breakfast restaurant for breakfast at very reasonable prices and has free parking outside of the hotel. Hotel is located in very convenient location of Akureyri.
Breakfast far exceeded expectations. The restaurant was closed but if breakfast is an indicator it is probably good.
Place is truly fair value.
Owner and staff are nice.
Great old hotel right in the center of Akureyri. Very clean and modern. Great restaurant with very good food and cocktails. Definitely the place to stay.
