Property is nice with a good breakfast in the morning. The rooms near the common/dining area however get A LOT of noise from that space leaking in. So if you ever want an early night good luck to you

Nice place to stay
Very strange decor for a hotel. Pools were not as I felt described. Do splurge on the dinner buffet….it was homemade and a very good meal.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Located in a nice area. Easy to get to with lots of place to park. Room was clean. I would say this place offered THE MOST solid breakfast I had on my trip. They had scrambled eggs! The one reason why I gave only a 4 star rating (and 3 stars for property condition) is the drain in my washroom. It was clogged or something as water would start boiling out of it while using the sink. How functional/clean a washroom is means a lot to me. Were it not for the washroom, this place has an easy 5 star rating.

Near Akureyri. Quiet and convenient to reach. And breakfast was great. However water had a very strong surfur smell and smelled like rotten eggs. Even shampoo and soap couldnt cover the smell. There was mold in bathroom and it could use some renovation. The staff didnt give us any explanation on amenities such as wifi, hot tub, etc during check in.

Best Hotel of our Trip!
This hotel was outstanding!! The staff was very friendly, the breakfasts and dinners were tasty, rooms were clean and simple but had everything you'd need. The patio doors opened to the hotel garden, which grew several things used for the dinner buffet. We loved meeting the neighbor's cat and the hotel dog - Bodi. And the VIEWS! The location was truly incredible - walking outside in the morning or the evening to see the fjords and mountains was surreal. Relaxing in the hot tub at the end of a long day and watching the sunset was heavenly! The location was ideal - made for easy day tripping to Godafoss, Husavik, and just 10 minutes from downtown Akureyri. We want to go back!!
Summer sunset.
Bodi!
