Absolutely exceptional place. The staffs were amazingly friendly, the breakfast great selection, and the room was so elegantly designed. To some, the room may be on the smaller side, but really, if you're doing a short stay, its really more than enough. Just take a moment to enjoy and notice all the small details that this family had spent time and effort putting into every little thing they present (the toilet paper, the glazed cups, the umbrella!....so many little charming details).

Location of the property is ideal for the quaint Rooms are renovated and super clean. Beds are cosy and comfortable with whitest, Softest and smoothest bed linen!! Staff are very polite and courteous. Daniel was exceptional he is very hospitable and kind. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Akureyri.

Everything was perfect 👏👏

The decor is very nice - the reception/bar/lounge area is very attractive and a comfortable area to sit in. Plenty of parking and easy to find and only a few minute's walk into the town centre. The room was large and attractive with beds that were good. The buffet breakfast (cold) was ample - although space is tight when many people queue at the same time but there're two areas to eat in, one being the lovely lounge/reception area. One of the nicest hotels we stayed at in Iceland.

A few hooks/rail on the wall in the bathroom would help with wet towels.

Hotel Akureyri’s prime location on Hafnarstræti 67 offers easy access to the city’s attractions, including the Akureyri Botanical Garden and Akureyrarkirkja Church, both within a short walk. The lively bar, especially during happy hour, creates a vibrant atmosphere that attracts both guests and locals. The breakfast buffet was a highlight, featuring a diverse selection of fresh and local items. Additionally, the hotel’s proximity to numerous restaurants made dining options convenient and varied. (Tripadvisor) Despite the Akureyrarkirkja Church undergoing renovations during our visit, we found ample opportunities to immerse ourselves in the local culture. The Akureyri Art Museum offered a diverse collection of contemporary works, providing insight into Icelandic artistry. A leisurely stroll through the Akureyri Botanical Garden was a highlight; the well-maintained grounds showcased a variety of native and exotic plants. The on-site café within the botanical garden provided a cozy spot to enjoy a cup of coffee amidst the greenery. A short drive to the nearby village of Húsavík afforded us the opportunity to embark on a whale-watching tour, a truly unforgettable experience. The sight of majestic whales in their natural habitat was awe-inspiring. Following the excursion, we dined at a local café near the whale-watching office, indulging in what we considered the best fish and chips of our trip. The freshness of the fish and the crispness of the batter were exceptional, making it a culinary highlight. Hotel Akureyri offers a comfortable and well-located option for travelers seeking to explore the city. The prime location, and quality amenities make it a commendable choice for a stay in Akureyri.

While the accessible room featured a spacious bathroom, the layout presented challenges: the bed was positioned against the wall, making access difficult from one side, and certain amenities like nightstands and light switches were not easily reachable. Additionally, the on-site laundry facilities were out of order during our stay, with no clear timeline for repair, requiring us to use the laundry services at a nearby hostel, which, while functional, was less convenient.

Everything but breakfast. We where in a suite. The rooms where fabulous.

Breakfast room was rediculous. There was seating for 14 and they had a hotel full of guests including a bus full of Asian tourists People where eating standing, we fellt ashamed we had a seat. They ran out of everything, spoons, joghurt, knifes, plates absolutely everything. The two people in the breakfast room kept running to the kitchen, they where really trying to keep up and worked hard but they kept running out of everything. Never seen anything like this. When they sort this out it will be an absolute fabulous hotel.

Room was great and modern. A little bit small but all right. Not so much space to store your things though... Was great to have a coffee machine. Should be nice to have a dry milk :) Great to have a speaker that you can connect to your phone - nice touch! great huge TV! Bathroom - a little bit small but all right...Great nice mirror with good light. A a wonderful hairdryer - is it Tyson???? Nice and soft towels! Breakfast - continental and pretty basic. Good to have boiled eggs. All was fresh. great bread selection! Cheese and meat selection was nice! Location - a short walk to downtown. In general - very nice and comfortable stay. I would recommend!

Upon arrival at the remodeled lobby and our suite (suite with sea view) I felt that this stay would be rated as a 10. Spacious remodeled room, beautiful view, comfortable bad and excellent location. However, things turned sour shortly after. Firstly it was impossible to adjust the room temperature. Although we opened the window, since it wasn’t windy, the room temperature remained hot as hell despite using 3 fans.

We were reassured prior to arrival that the hotel has washing machines and dryers but upon arrival found out that all were out of service. We also couldn’t watch any TV channel due to some connectivity issue. Once the remodeling phase is complete, this place has a potential for a perfect stay

I liked the view of the fjord from my window. Bed and linens were exceptional. I got to play a Gibson Les Paul guitar that was in our room. Internet was really good. Breakfast was really great. The best place in the hotel was their main room with bar. Where locals come after week. It was really interesting to talk with local Icelanders and other travelers during the happy hours. Near wonderful restaurants. I would definitely stay there again in the future. Plenty of free parking.

Having to leave.

Our room was very modern, and looked as if it had been newly decorated. The bed was very comfortable. It was very central, for walking around the town. Good selection at breakfast.

Breakfast area needs to be redesigned. Very crowded, with one large table - smaller tables would have been better, and remove the large sofa and put more chairs and tables in. The people eating breakfast on the sofa looked very uncomfortable. Rooms need changes as well. Nowhere to hang towels, no shelves, hooks in the bedroom only suitable if you are very tall.
