Top Akureyri City Center Hotel Reviews

Hotel Norðurland

10/10 Excellent

"Great location! The hotel is located in downtown Akureyri right by the tourist sites, restaurants, and tours. Fun stay!"

Hotel Kea by Keahotels

6/10 Okay

"The property is located in the downtown area. Close walk to all the external restaurants and shopping. The beds were way too soft. It felt like you were sleeping on a bag of marshmallows. The pillows were so thin you had to fold it in half to make it work. And if you wanted another one it was 500 Islandic Kronos extra per pillow. The scrambled eggs and beans at breakfast buffet were cold."

Hotel Sveinbjarnargerdi

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is definitely off the beaten path but the property appears to be quite new and has a refreshing look. Plenty of parking spots (including two EV chargers), lovely dog and cat. Clean room with functional TV and lots of space to put stuff on chair or on a rack. Bed is a bit small considering that it's a singles room. Room temperature leans towards the warm/hot side. Bathroom floor can take some time to dry up but there's enough space. Breakfast are always the same dishes, but they were cooked well. I especially like the coffee machine. It's available to guests for free 24/7, even if you want some chocolate at 11pm. Staff were plentiful during breakfast period, but it can be hard to find receptionist for check-in or check-out. It's well worth the price."

6/10 Okay

"We were there for two nights, and the first night was OK. Noisy location, with people yelling on the street right in front of the hotel until 1:00, during our second night at the hotel. Then heavy machinery started operating on the street at 6:30, during one hour. Earplugs made no difference. The same night around 22:00, there was a fire alarm, that made us go downstairs to evacuate the building. On the first floor at the bar and restaurant also serving as the hotel reception, life continued as normal. One employee was busy consulting the alarm control panel, trying to understand the reason for the alarm and to make it stop. The other employees didn’t seem to be concerned about the alarm, keeping serving drinks and meals as usual. Several hotel guests like us just stood up near the front entrance, waiting for some instructions of some sort, that never came. We even saw a group of 8 tourists or so going to the upper floors with their backpacks, as if everything was normal. Many hotel clients didn’t evacuate the building at all. When the alarm finally stopped, I inquired from the same busy employee who confirmed that it was a false alarm. No employee ever went to the floors and rooms to explain the situation to the clients. I saw the same employee coming from the evacuation stairs at the back on the third floor, perhaps to check if someone was still there. Good luck to anyone staying at this hotel, if there is a real fire alarm someday."

Acco Luxury Apartments

2/10 Terrible

"This was the worst property I have stayed during my trip. I stayed at different places in Iceland and This was the worst place to stay. Bathroom sink was stinky, no body wash, no soap for washer etc. It was on 4th floor with no elevator. They did not mentioned in their listing so traveling with full size luggage bag with family is tough. Front door keypad was not working so we have to call with. I proper response about service while staying outside in cold , we waited for almost 30 mins and were finally lucky that we were able to open the door after punching access code more than 50 times. In short this place is not worth staying for the amount we paid. It says it’s luxury apartment but there nothing g that you feel as luxury except location."

Torg Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Two 50+ year olds and a college student. Great location in the heart of town. Easy to get in and out of town to attractions. Great space in 1 bedroom. Cute room with great kitchen amenities. Does have a tight stairwell and no elevator so takes some lugging of luggage but not a problem for us. Bed for third person is a sofa (not a sofa bed). No issue for my kid. Will definitely stay again."
