Hotel Akureyri
Hótel is amazing. Loved the design and cosy feel of the hotel. This is by far the best hotel we stayed in all week. We done the ring road so have stayed in a different hotel each night. You can walk to many restaurants as well. Will definitely come back to this hotel. Great breakfast as well.
