Country and pretty. Off the path out of the city. If that’s your vibe

Beautiful, cozy cabin. Made dinner for 6 here no problem. The hot tub was great. Within walking distance of a grocery store if it snows hard enough to discourage driving, which it did.

Spacious and clean

We absolutely loved this place. Our second trip here and this time we rented a cabin. These are not ordinary cabins, these are small homes with a geothermal hot tub set in a small community setting. There is even your own bbq on a huge deck. We would absolutely comeback… only next time use the cabin as our base camp for the north!

Great location, cozy rooms and friendly staff. Issue in our room was there were few houseflies

Vacation. Quick stay here. Cute town. Not too big but not super limited. Nice place.

Stayed in 3 BR cottage. Beautiful space clean with comfortable bedding and common space

Ok overall. Only stopped for an overnight stay on our drive around Iceland, a little bit outside of town but less than 10 minute drive so easy to get to.

Great staff duringenteu

The rooms are clean and cozy, but very small, which is fine as they are priced accordingly compared to other hotels nearby. My daughter and I enjoyed our time there and would recommend if you're visiting Akureyri.

This is not a $450 a night hotel. It is basically a fancy version of a youth hostel. The rooms are tiny. The hotel is dirty with dead plants in the hallway windows and flies on the windowsills. The door we were told to enter through was blocked by dumpsters and trash bags. The entire hotel smelled bad. The elevator was unusable due to the odor. The outdoor seating area was dirty and dilapidated. Laura at the desk was very nice , but couldn’t help. I asked to cancel the reservation, but she was unwilling. We were in Iceland three weeks. Every hotel was great. Look at my other reviews as I post them. I have never posted a bad review until now. This hotel would have been okay at $200 a night.

Good price, clean and beautiful environment, I would stay there again.

clean and comfortable room, good location, nothing to complain

The room was clean and staff were friendly. Loved the area and the city

We were extremely excited to stay in one of the private cottage at Hotel Kjarnalundur. We got off to a rough start with unclear directions about how to get to the cottages from the hotel - a simple map at the front desk would have been enormously helpful. After attempting to find it ourselves, we had to return to the front desk and ask for an escort, who showed us to our place. When we got inside it was clean and just as pictured, exactly what we expected. But we booked this stay for the private hot tub. As soon as I turned the water on, dirt and debris flowed out of the drain. We ran about a foot of water that was very dirty, then snapped some pics and drove back to the desk to ask for assistance. She handed us some towels, said to let it drain, and try again. We went to dinner and when we returned we wiped out all the dirt and once again tried to fill the hot tub. Same issue. We filled the tub halfway and the water was finally running clear, but we had no way to clean the tub expect to drain it again and start the whole process over. At this point we were tired, wet (outside in December), and it would have taken another 2+ hours to drain, refill, and heat the tub. We gave up. My request for a partial refund due to this unusable amenity was not honored. I had planned a lovely and relaxing night for my family and with the hours spent trying to get the hot tub working it turned into the worst stay of our trip, and the most expensive. I would not go back.

Nice and clean hotel. Friendly staff. This was the only location where i was able to see the aurora borealis.

Excellent choice of hotel if you're staying around the Akureyri area. The level of service from all the hotel staff was exceptional! Going above and beyond to please their guests and ensure everyone was satisfied. Rooms were clean, comfortable and spacious. Hotel is only a short drive away from the main town centre while also being ideally situated far enough to have a chance at seeing the Northern Lights. We were lucky enough, with the guidance of hotel staff, to see the Northern Lights - and during a summer month! While the lights were barely visible from the city centre, staying at this hotel was the perfect choice as there was minimal light pollution. Left us with memories we'll forever cherish. Will definitely stay here again on another trip around Iceland.

This place feels like a low-end converted hostel than a hotel. The rooms were in serious need of an upgrade and everything had a musty odor. We were pre-warned about the sulfur-smelling showers, but it still was hard to deal with. Housekeeping was poor as well - trash and used tea cups were left as-is after they were done.

Property not well maintained. Rooms are tiny and not well equiped or furnished

It was ok

Very nice place

Nice place would recomend

Great hotel / hostel! Perfect for one or two nights in town. The staff are friendly and young, and the decoration feels home-y.

This was my second visit. Enjoyed the hot tub and sauna after a day of exploring. Staff were helpful and spoke good English.

Location was great. Overall a good hotel. Staff friendly. Was a little on the older side. Bathroom and other in-room entertainment needs better quality control. Would be nice if they offered other meals than just breakfast.

Good location 3-4 mins drive out of Akureryi. Was hoping to see the Northern Lights but it was too cloudy. Room was clean and comfortable. Enjoyed the hot tub outside and sauna.

The hotel was a nice hotel, but our least favorite of all the hotels we have stayed at thus far. The staff was super friendly and awesome. The bed was comfy, but none of our lights or the tv worked unless we had the bathroom light on. Was a bit frustrating. The shower water was smelly. Smelled of sulphur. One big plus is they stressed quiet while in the hallway containing rooms. I loved that.

It was a little way out of the main part of town so it was quiet.

Nice place

Overnight stay in Akureyri while touring northern Iceland. This hotel had nothing fabulous about it. Cleanliness was below average for Iceland. It was hard to find an outlet in the room to recharge our smart phones. We eventually had to disconnect the TV to free an electric outlet. There was not enough room to lay 2 suitcases on the floor. We had to unpack one at a time.

Location and views were great
