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

Had a great time at this hotel! Beautiful, clean, and very friendly staff. The breakfast is top notch as well! The laundromat was out of service but they directed us to an alternative in town.
Would stay again

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!!!

Super déco et lit confortable
Hôtel très bien placé pour aller en ville et marcher sur la balade. Intérieur superbe avec une magnifique déco à l’ambiance Chaleureuse. Happy hour en soirée. Restauration possible mais on conseille les kebab de chez Malik au top.
La chambre double qu’on avait été propre et le lit très confortable mais petite et très mal aérée. Une nuit c’est ok plus il faut prendre une chambre plus grande.
Petit déjeuner très bien.

Huggulegt og flott hótel með öllum þægindum
Dvölin var alveg upp á 10, góður matur á North veitingarstaðnum og frábær aðstaða og þjónusta á hótelinu. Starfsfólkið mjög vinsamlegt. Og huggulegt að sitja í lobbíinu og vinna og síðan njóta. Ég kem aftur síðar, takk fyrir mig
