Bien pour une nuit !
Pros:

Emplacement pratique pour une nuit avec choix de restaurant ( interne et externe à l'hotel)
Tres bon restaurant à l'hotel

Cons:

Excessivement cher pour la prestation car chambre un peu "vieillote"
La nuit la plus cher de notre périple ( certes nous sommes en Islande)

Vergane glorie
Cons:

Waarschijnlijk was dit eens een mooi hotell maar het heeft nu onderhoud nodig. En dan de kamer. We hadden een tweepersoons kamer gereserveerd en dat was het ook, maar meer ook niet. Twee koffers kon je er net in neerzetten en dan was de ruimte op. De douche cabine was zo klein dat je niet eens kon bukken. Dat men zoveel geld hiervoor durft te vragen is ongepast.

Cons:

There was a lot of noise coming from the party in the hotel hall, which was right under our room and didn’t stop until 1 am. Really difficult to sleep

Hotel in guter Lage.
Pros:

Das Frühstück war sehr gut. Die Lage sehr zentral. Kaffeemaschine und Wasserkocher

Cons:

Das Badezimmer war zu klein und es roch durchgehend nach Abfluss. Der Toilettensitz sehr instabil.

Pros:

It's a good location if you want to explore downtown. But the beds and pillows are old and uncomfortable. It's also a really loud hotel, you can hear all the doors slamming and everyone leaving in the morning.

Cons:

Expensive for the value of bed/pillows/toilet paper.

Cons:

Aamiainen oli todella kallis, tarjolla oli kuitenkin vain keskinkertainen valikoima. Aamupalaa ei voinut kiireessä laittaa huoneen laskuun, koska kyseessä oli "ulkoinen palvelun tarjoaja". Hotelli sijaitsi Akureyrin keskustassa, jossa tarjolla ainoastaan ravintoloita ja turistikauppoja.

Lovely hotel
Pros:

Beautiful quirky hotel right in downtown. Location cannot be beat. Try Rub 23 across the street -amazing good! The room was spacious. Nice bathroom and good bed. WiFi was slow. Breakfast was good , with lots of selection. Check out is late at 11, which was nice. Staff friendly and helpful. I would stay here again.
