Decent place close to town. Fit our needs for the most part. Felt that it was a little more expensive than the facilities reflected. But it looks like there is a new kitchen going in the basement.

    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.
