Perfect location close to the water and walkable to the main shopping area and restaurants within 5 minutes on the flat (which was ideal in the ice/snow as the hills looked slippery) The hotel has been beautifully decorated, the included breakfast was great and the basic double room was plenty big enough. Will be recommending to anyone I know if they travel to Akureyri.

Our stay at Akureyri

It was a good stay for overall except the room was extremely small and we could find any space to open even our luggage properly. Besides of that the hotel staff, location, cleanliness was terrific and i cannot say any negative things about it

I would like to recommend this hotel because of the experiences I lived here during my stay. I booked a whale watching tour and the following day I saw the whale from the comfort of my hotel room. The hotel itself is cozy, clean, warm and I had my room being looked after daily (tea, coffee, towels). Be prepared to sit at breakfast table with other guests and share the travel experience, as the restaurant is quite small. Enough breakfast options to fuel the day. Walkable distance from town centre, bus station and even airport if you're keen.

Really tiny room

The room was really tiny. The bathroom is to tiny that it’s impossible to even change inside. The shower can’t even bend down to wash legs.

5-star feel makes the room size a non-issue

This is a decently appointed albeit on the small side accommodation. We got stuck in Egilstaddir for a few hours with the closure of the Ring Road segment connecting to Akureyri. We pushed our Hotel Akureyri check in for a day thinking that we might have to spend another night in Egilstaddir. The hotel was very accommodating due to the circumstance. When the road opened back up, we rushed up the mountains and headed to Akureyri. We showed up after 7 PM and the owner (I believe it was) received us and changed our check in dates back to our original booking. No hassles. What great hospitality! The property is a short walk to town proper and within easy walkable access to restaurants. I strongly recommend Eyja and their delicious Nordic cuisine. I will stay at Hotel Akureyri when I’m back in these parts of Iceland. I will time it with their restaurant’s open days. It’s amazing that they grow their own veggies in one of the buildings close to the hotel. Very sustainable. I love that about the place. And the view of the bay is defunct a huge plus. It was refreshing waking up to the bay view as the rising sun clears through the fog. Very memorable mornings!!!
