I would not book this property again. I think a 4-star rating is totally incorrect. The view of the landscape around Akureyri and distance to the town akureyri are positives but there is not much else going for it. Rooms are small - like American college dorm rooms - and bathrooms are tiny and not all that clean. Property is old, the sheep are smelly, breakfast was significantly below average. Once I have issue with this property being passed off as 4-star. That is just false.

I wonder how this hotel is shown as 4 star by Expedia and Google. The room given to us ( No.13) is very small with a tiny Bathroom, it was difficult to move around freely and the hot water stinks. One can easily hit the wooden bar placed above the sink. Breakfast is very poor with limited options like bread, fruits and cereals. Would not recommend this place.

It was a beautiful quiet location. We wish we would have had dinner here but we were here 10 minutes before cut off.

It's a quaint and very old building, configured to be a hotel. It is 10 kms outside of Akureyri, so don't get fooled by the address. The restaurant was very tasty food (lamb of course) but for the price, very small portions. The staff are friendly and accommodating however, no front desk staff...kinda self serve when you arrive. After a long drive, a place to rest your head but no modern upgrades or mod-cons.

Located on a sheep farm close to Akureyri. Small but comfortable room. Great hot tub looking out over the valley and mountains. Excellent restaurant.

Excellent stay! The property is located in the most beautiful area and the hot tub had a gorgeous view. Our host was kind enough to offer a tour of the property & introduce us to the sheep & their sweet lambs. The breakfast was yummy too. Definitely would recommend!

The hotel was nice and cozy. Nice spacious rooms with a clean bathroom. Well maintained. The best thing about the hotel was the staff. Absolutely exceptional service and helped us out so much. There was a storm in North Iceland at the time and they made sure we had the right information and were safe throughout. Would happily stay there again

Nearness to town staff was absolutely wonderful. Room was fine but Bathroom was very very small. Very peaceful and quiet. Nice area. No TV place needed some upgrading.

The manager, Arthur, was excellent and provided us with super service. His restaurant recommendations were great and when we told him we had to leave early at 750 am to catch our ferry to Grimsey he provided the 8 am breakfast for us at 7 am! Thank you Arthur!

My partner and I booked a room here last week as a last minute booking and we were beyond thrilled with the room, the service, and the breakfast! The rooms were simple, but very clean and had everything we needed! The breakfast was also simple, but wonderful and traditional. Arthur was an EXCELLENT host! Very kind, very responsive, and he introduced us to the lambs/sheep around the property. He also helped us out with a few loads of laundry after camping for two weeks. I would 10/10 recommend a stay!

Johannes and Arthur were so welcoming, after a really bad journey through the mountains and deep in high snow they looked after us making sure we had plenty of food, helped us navigate the roads and made sure we were safe, we would highly recommend staying here. A good selection for breakfast and home cooked meals on an evening to save us going out in snow. Thank you so much for everything

Upon our arrival to check-in, I learned that I had reserved a room in error for the following night.
Luckily, Luna was very accommodating and able to arrange for us to stay in the last room available. The room was clean and spacious with beds that were comfortable. The breakfast, which was included, was delicious. My family and I were very appreciative of the staff's
flexibility and would highly recommend staying here.

Our favorite stay on our 10 day ring road trip by far.
The lamb dinner dish was the best meal I’ve had in Iceland. And I ate A LOT yummy dishes on this trip.

Quiet, beautiful location, 8 km from Akureyri. We had a room at the back of the building, with a beautiful view across the valley. We ate here in the evening, and were very impressed - lamb is not just in the name, but a speciality of the kitchen. Only criticism is that in some ways the room looked a bit tired and in need of updating, but it was certainly clean.
