This was by far our favorite place to stay in all of Iceland! Aesthetics were off the charts perfect, easily walkable to many amazing restaurants and shops. They have a restaurant attached but they were going through renovations at the time so we didn’t try it but even the free breakfast was amazing. The host and staff were so kind, we got snowed in and they had no issues with us extending our stay and recommended things to do in town. Free minibar snacks and drinks, the room was so cozy and quiet and even had heated bathroom floors. And the bathroom products smelled amazing! Can’t recommend it enough! It is a must if you are in Akureyri!!
This family-run hotel is found along the Ring Road/Route 1, 8.7 mi outside Akureyri. It offers a hot tub, sun terrace and views of Eyjafjördur. Wi-Fi and parking are free.

Breakfast was the old-fashioned Icelandic spread, which was delicious. The grounds are beautiful, facing the fjord, with walking paths and a cool observation tower.
Located in North Iceland’s main town, Akureyri, this budget summer hotel is a short walk from the city center and the Eyjafjördur Fjord shore. Free parking is offered on site.
Nice place to stay while visiting sites in North Iceland.
Nice place to stay while visiting sites in North Iceland. We were able to see the Northern lights while there in early October, but our lodging was slightly out of the main city lights. Nice restaurants and easy to walk around. Botanical garden was a very nice place.

Great place for a day trip, or two.
Great place for a day trip, or two. Limited eating options (compared to Reykjavik). The lagoons (Forest lagoon / Myvatn) are worth a visit. There are of course also some nearby waterfalls. There's a fantastic petting zoo which is definitely not to be missed.

Nice small city . Surprisingly bug infested in late summer.
Nice small city . Surprisingly bug infested in late summer. Wonderful sights nearby. Very few free parking lots . Dettifoss was awe inspiring. There are steam venting sites worth visiting. There are crevasses separating American and European plates you can walk across caves and crevasses where Game of Thrones was filmed . Restaurant 23 is a great fish restaurant

Akureyri is a beautiful little town in N. Iceland.
Akureyri is a beautiful little town in N. Iceland. Super picturesque, at the base of a fjord. We booked a whale watching tour with Keli Sea Tours and saw humpback whales.
Everything is walkable and there are some great restaurants, especially Strikið, where I had the best piece of salmon I have ever eaten.
The botanical garden is free and beautiful. The kids loved the little Christmas house on the edge of town.
If you are driving the ring road, you must stop here!

We was looking for local food but no one. we could find only pizza, burger, fried chicken restaurant. And we was found food truck which owner is very rude, we not recommend there but anyway bakery at the corner was very good.
We were able to checkin 30 min early. And check out very early.
The staff arranged for a very big take-away breakfast as we needed to leave around 5:30 AM. Thanks again for this kind gesture! Much appreciated. We even received lunch :)
We ate at the restaurant. Food was good but a bit pricey. Fush soup with chocolate is an experience I wouldn't try again though.
The room was big with lots of space to stow the luggage. Beds were confortable
Loved the location, the room, the breakfast and the staff behaviour. The northern lights viewing point, the hot tub, the sauna, the snooker table and the dart board were amazing value add-ons. They had coffee/tea/hot cocoa through the day at their restaurant, and a kitchenette to microwave meals. Highly recommended stay option near Akureyri. Special shoutout to Karl for his warm welcome and hospitality throughout our three night stay.
The hotel was right in the town center and everything is within walking distance. There is parking on street and around - for free after 4pm and until 10am on weekdays (super convenient).
The room was large and luxurious and staff was super friendly (TV was not working and they offered us a discount on dinner since we decided to eat there). Food was delicious (dinner and breakfast).
We had a great stay in Akureyri and totally recommend Akureyri Backpackers. Our room was comfortable and spacious. The stuff was very friendly (especially the brazilian guy, I think his name was nicolai). The Hostel ist very close to some shops, restaurants and the harbour. The atmosphere at the bar was good, we also liked the breakfast and the tacos! :)
Thank you! :)
My room was very nice and comfortable. Hotel was clean and within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and the botanical gardens. The food at the restaurant was very good. I would like to mention that the staff were very helpful.
Akureyri is a nice place to visit and you can take a day trip to Grimsey Island.
Because of Covid we have been given another room in Hotel Akureyri Dynheimar. Because the room was to small for our luggage (inkl. stuff to eat) we asked for a bigger room. Luckily we got an apartment and had a very nice experience there. Thank you so much for your flexibility!
Beds (2 twins) were comfortable. Windows let in good air. Good placement of outlets near beds. Staff was kind. Breakfast was included and consisted of toast, hard-boiled eggs, cheese and crackers, veggies. Hotel was right next to great restaurants and shopping (Icewear).
Location is great... a short walk to the town centre with lots of food. Windows overlook the water. Easy to spot from the main road. Breakfast is not included. Order directly from the restaurant. The waffles, skyr and salmon on toast were all delightful!
Great parking availability and location. Close to excellent restaurants and bars (like R5). Very cool decor and facilities, which were clean and comfy. The staff very very friendly and the breakfast was a great way to start the day.
The hotel is placed on the hill viewing directly to the Fjord of Akureyri.
The rooms has very big windows and you can view the planes landing and leaving on the airport.
The breakfast was very good and a lot of parking spaces
Breakfast was the best we had in Iceland 🇮🇸. There were too many options with fruits and cookies. We also like bunnies outside. My kids took lots of pictures of them. This hotel was conveniently located and had good views.
The hotel is in a beautiful location just 5 min drive from Akureyri downtown. It has a hot tub overlooking the valley which is perfect to unwind after a day outside. Breakfast was great and staff friendly and very helpful.
The breakfast was not worth the price. I know this is a limited staff hotel but there could be more variety of food and coffee pods that work in the coffee machine in the dining are.
Breakfast far exceeded expectations. The restaurant was closed but if breakfast is an indicator it is probably good.
Place is truly fair value.
Owner and staff are nice.
I was expecting a typical hotel, but instead I was greeted with an apartment just outside the downtown area. Easily walkable to restaurants and attractions!
