Johannes and Arthur were so welcoming, after a really bad journey through the mountains and deep in high snow they looked after us making sure we had plenty of food, helped us navigate the roads and made sure we were safe, we would highly recommend staying here. A good selection for breakfast and home cooked meals on an evening to save us going out in snow. Thank you so much for everything

Upon our arrival to check-in, I learned that I had reserved a room in error for the following night. Luckily, Luna was very accommodating and able to arrange for us to stay in the last room available. The room was clean and spacious with beds that were comfortable. The breakfast, which was included, was delicious. My family and I were very appreciative of the staff's flexibility and would highly recommend staying here.

Our favorite stay on our 10 day ring road trip by far. The lamb dinner dish was the best meal I’ve had in Iceland. And I ate A LOT yummy dishes on this trip.

Quiet, beautiful location, 8 km from Akureyri. We had a room at the back of the building, with a beautiful view across the valley. We ate here in the evening, and were very impressed - lamb is not just in the name, but a speciality of the kitchen. Only criticism is that in some ways the room looked a bit tired and in need of updating, but it was certainly clean.

Spacious room for 4. Breakfast was good with a good variety. Check in and check out was quick. We were in room 14 and could hear someone walking in the room upstairs. Also the shower drain plugged but we got someone to fix it immediately.

Zero complaints from me!
I read the mixed reviews and had apprehensions but turned out fine! Easy to find, great view down the valley to town and efficient check in - name and room number left at front desk, collect your key and done Same to check out Decent sized room and shower, the included buffet breakfast was great and a bonus in this expensive country. I can’t complain about any aspect of my stay here

Travis hotel is a nice “Mom & Pop” place where you truly feel comfortable. Located on the outskirts of Akureyri, the room was spacious enough for us, the breakfast was tasty and their customer service was quite welcoming

We had a lovely 2 night stay at Lamb Inn. The host and other staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The hot tub was divine. We also were lucky enough to have a dinner there, since the kitchen wasn’t officially open, and it was amazing. They were also happy to accommodate our group member who doesn’t eat meat. I highly recommend Lamb Inn!

We went to Iceland in the middle of February when the roads were packed with ice and snow. We spent three nights at the Lamb Inn and the service was excellent! Matt was so kind and helpful when we needed advice on road conditions…and even brought us dinner when we were snowed in! Couldn’t have asked for a better to place to stay.

Cozy and relaxing place a few minutes from city
Very cozy place, in a quiet location just few minutes from the city. Decor is amazing bringing you back to another time and makes you feel at home. Breakfast is great and the homemade items are delicious. Sad that their kitchen was not open for dinner during my stay, I read that their food is delicious.

The lovely huge bathtub in the living-room was unique ☺️ The beds in the cubbies were great and the master bedroom was fantastic. The special room service because of our late arrival was appreciated as was the wonderful breakfast. The only issue was the wifi poor connection, but it was an isolated location and a night without internet isn’t necessarily a negative thing. 👍

Lovely setting. Fairly close to Akureyri. Very nice owner - even sat and chatted with us as we were the only ones down for breakfast at that time. We noted an issue with a window in our room that didn't close all the way. Had to use a towel to block air coming in, but not a big deal. Would have been nice to have hot water pot in room, but it was available in common area which wasn't too far away. nice homemade goodies at breakfast. Highly recommend!
