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.
We were offered to bid on a room upgrade prior to arriving - I liked that. We did have a winning bid and got a deluxe room (basically a bedroom & living room area separated by a TV) with a separate shower and toilet/sink areas behind the bed. Everything was pretty comfy and decent quality.
The included breakfast was pretty good, albeit with not enough variety.
The location of the hotel was great - walking distance to downtown, the pool, and it had parking included, which the other main downtown hotel lacked.
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.
I liked: The location close to the airport and close to the towns center. The staff at reception, that was located in another building at short walking distance from the hotel entrance, was friendly and came with me to show me my room. The a la cart breakfast was very good. There was a water cooker with tea and coffee available. The contents of the small fridge where ‘free of charge’ (2 chocolate bars, a bag of potato chips, 2 cans of coke and 2 cans of mineral water).
Friendly, great food, wonderful hospitality and beautiful location. 10 min to downtown Akureyri and 50 min to Godafoss. We were right on the water, clean and cozy rooms, nice hot tub and great restaurant. Wonderful breakfast in the morning with fruits, veggies, breads, jams, pancakes with Nutella, and amazing coffee and teas. We loved our stay there. Great for families. Wish we booked 2 nights.
The owner was quick and quite kind. The property itself was much larger than expected and very quiet and the view of the city from our room at night was beautiful. The beds were some of the comfiest we had experience in all of Iceland. The breakfast was very nice with a decent amount of selection for a small hotel. Overall a must stay. We will be coming back next year!
Very centrally located, this made a great base during our stay in Akureyri. It was also very well priced compared to other places of a similar level troughout Iceland.
Breakfast was good and the room was very clean.
While the hotel has it's own restaurant, we decided to eat out on that day and were pleased with the number of restaurants close to the hotel.
The location was very convenient, a short walk from the central restaurants/bars but just distant enough to not be noisy, and just off the main road (1). The quality of the breakfast food was very high (but a la carte, not a buffet like most hotels). Getting the PIN to unlock our room by text was very convenient for arriving late.
Location. Very quiet and close to a small village with a restaurant. When we arrived we saw some small whales close to the harbour.. amazing! The cabin had everything we needed and was already cozy and warm when we arrived. The hottub is a nice bonus after a long day of hiking and driving. Nice oasis close to Akureyri!
Brand new cottage with high end finishes and a fantastic view over the valley to Akureyri and the mountains beyond. The staff was very friendly, and the breakfast included with the stay was quite good. We had a lovely soak in the private hot tub on the balcony. We wish we could have stayed longer.
The apartment is well located - a few steps away from a parking lot, beside several restaurants and a very good cafe. It's in the city centre of Akureyri. The place is modern and is quite spacious.
As a side comment, the hallway towards the apartments is very cozy.
The breakfast was outstanding. Great selection and there was a steady flow of fresh food. The dinner we had at the hotel restaurant was outstanding too. Very delicious. The best beef I‘ve eaten so far. The bed was good, not to soft and not to hard.
Location perfect, just a short walk into town to grab an evening meal and breakfast in the morning.
The hotel and room were spotless and the facilities were great, especially the bathroom. The hotel was quirky and had a romantic feel.
Location was outstanding, in the heart of town, next to restaurants, shops, and at the foot of the iconic church. Breakfast was excellent, staff was efficient at check-in for our large group, and rooms were perfectly comfortable.
The restaurant on the bottom floor of the hotel is exceptional. Some of the best food we had in Iceland! Location is ideal, right in the middle of the city. Would recommend!
