The owner was really kind. Breakfast was really Icelandic and homemade as well as the dinner and very good. The place is beautiful and not too far from Akureyri. Highly suggested.

Nicely placed, close to Akureyri and Mývatn. I had not gotten the key box code when I got there, but a quick call to the "reception" solved that issue perfectly. Thanks for the stay!

The rustic-style lodge is situated in a spectacular location. The staff is impeccable, super friendly, and helpful. Since we had to leave early, they prepared lunch boxes for us. I really recommend this.

    In a newer part of Akureyri, with good views from terrace across the fjord, this modern warm and stylish apartment is great value and has plenty of room. Excellent cooking and washing facilities, easy parking and a great host. There's outdoor space too. It was down to -11c when I was there and the place was warm and cosy. Everything is super-clean too.

    This lovely guesthouse is a gem. The rooms are clean, warm and cosy. But the best part of the stay is the lovely host Elisabeth. She offered to prepare us dinner, because the stay is away from any other restaurants. She allowed us access to the washer and drier, so we could clean and dry our bathing suits and towels. All the little handmade details, the selected decorations and dishes give this place a special soul. The breakfast was delicious also, with everything you could want. Would really recommend this stay.
