"Amazing apartment just close to everything :) Is my second time staying here, is clean, comfortable, kitchen has all the equipment needed :) There is free parking outside. The host was so lovely and very responsive when i needed something. Definitely the best place to stay in Akureyri. I will come back "
"Wonderful 3 night stay. The hotel was modern with an excellent bar and breakfast room/restaurant. Staff were polite and helpful. Ideal location. Close to harbour for boat trips and 40 minute walk along the fjord to the airport. "
"Lovely hotel - really clean rooms, comfy beds and lovely Occitaine toiletries. Had all the amenities we needed. Nice surprise that the Tv was mainly British channels so we watched a little before bed. We had breakfast included in our package - recommend as it was very filling. My teen loved the waffle maker. The location worked brilliantly for us - and was so quiet - using the metal steps up and down to town (from behind the synagogue to Rub 23) but not so good if you had mobility issues. The airport bus dropped and collected right outside. Lovely foyer/lounge and the hot chocolates are highly recommended - made by the lovely Polish guy on reception who was so friendly. If you choose not to have your room cleaned one day - you get credit to spend in the bar etc. "
"We had a lovely stay at this hotel. Our room was clean and warm when we arrived, and both the bedroom and bathroom were spacious and modern. At first, we were a little nervous because the road seemed quite tricky due to the heavy snow and the buildings looked quite rustic from the outside, but everything went smoothly. The breakfast was lovely as well."
"The view from our room was AMAZING! We stayed in the suite above the restaurant. The staff was very friendly and very helpful. Our room was welcoming and I loved the heated bathroom floor."
