"Loved the hotel except there's no staff there to help you. You have to communicate the entire time online. No parking onsite and you have to park in a public lot a few blocks away. It wasn't too bad but slightly inconvenient. The only thing I would strongly suggest is to provide better sun blocking curtains. During the summer the sun and their street lights are not good to get sleep. Please provide better darkening curtains or shade. The location was exceptional though and would definitely...

Top Jon Sveinsson Museum Hotel Reviews

Skald Akureyri, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property. New hotel. Definite recommend"

Centrum Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed with two kids. Room was great. Spacious and clean. Bathroom was very modern and clean. Great location and everything was walkable. We didn’t try the restaurant downstairs but it looked very good. Parking for free across the street from 4pm to 10am, and then in the harbor if you need to park free during the day. Lots of things to do in Akureyri - we went whale watching"

Sæluhus Hotel Apartments & Houses

8/10 Good

"Clean - but a bit run down. Hot tub balcony was run down and very small view of any water. Afraid to try the hot tub. Not many other people staying there. Which was kinda questionable. Which was"

K16 apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Great place, highly recommend. Great location, nice rooms, everything you need."

Hotel Halond

10/10 Excellent

"Very comfortable and clean"

Lava Apartments

8/10 Good

"Very clean and as advertised. Room was a little cramped for 4 people, but we kinda expected that going in. Located in the heart of town, many restaurants and shopping are within easy walking distance. Only issue was that for us the room was too warm even when the temperature was turned all the way down. We had to crack the windows to sleep which made the room noisy with the sounds of the town and wind."

Hotel Norðurland

8/10 Good

"Déjeuner très bien pour le type d’hôtel. Chambre adéquate mais qui aurait besoin d’un petit rafraîchissement. Bien situé."

Akureyri - Berjaya Iceland Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place to stay and local to restaurants and shops. It is a bit of a steep hike from/to hotel."

Akureyri Backpackers

10/10 Excellent
