Top Glerártorg Hotel Reviews

Hotel Halond

10/10 Excellent

"So, this is a somewhat unusual hotel in that there were effectively no visible staff during my entire stay. Access to the building and to my room was via a pin code sent me (it came through Expedia’s message system and since the email notifications connected to it get mostly filtered into spam by gmail, I had a moment of panic while driving to Akureyri that I would arrive in the wee hours of the morning and not be able to access a room I paid for, but fortunately, that was not an issue. I didn’t get the breakfast either of the two mornings that I was there, so I can’t comment on that. The room was the nicest of all the rooms I stayed in while in Iceland and the in-room television supports Airplay so I was able to do things like watch streaming videos or play music from my phone to it which was nice. The one lack I would point at would be that the rooms have fridges but not microwaves, so don’t expect to make yourself a hot meal in your room, but otherwise, it was a great place to stay and should I ever return to Akureyri, I will definitely stay here again."

Hafnarstræti Hostel

8/10 Good

"We had a good stay here. The kitchen was a fully-equipped industrial kitchen with a very efficient dishwasher and lots of utensils, as well of heaps of space to sit in the common area. There was also free coffee and tea. Plenty of bathrooms were provided and they were clean and comfortable. The staff were also friendly to us. The pods were comfortable and there was a lot of room to store your belongings, as well as more room on shelves outside (less safe, but that wasn't an issue for us). The little lights in the pods didn't seem to go out at night, which was a little annoying, but we just covered them up. There was a TV in the pod that you could cast to, so that was nice, and the Wi-Fi worked well—I was able to take several Zoom calls with no issues. The soundproofing between the pods and the hallways isn't great, and it didn't seem like quiet hours were enforced. A large group of teenagers were quite loud during the night, so that was a bit frustrating and disrupted our sleep. Luggage storage was provided, but as it cost money, most people just seemed to put their bags on the shelves."

Akureyri - Berjaya Iceland Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"A good quality friendly hotel with good breakfast and a good restaurant for evening meals and good bedrooms for a very reasonable price and only 20 minutes walk down to the harbour, 10 minutes walk to the centre and shops. Would recommend."

K16 apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful host who made everything so smooth. There was no parking available at the location, but we were told we could park for free on a side street. The laundry was free and even the tide pods were free! Great kitchen and layout of the apartment."

Skald Akureyri, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property. New hotel. Definite recommend"

Sæluhus Hotel Apartments & Houses

8/10 Good

"Clean - but a bit run down. Hot tub balcony was run down and very small view of any water. Afraid to try the hot tub. Not many other people staying there. Which was kinda questionable. Which was"

Lava Apartments

8/10 Good

"Very clean and as advertised. Room was a little cramped for 4 people, but we kinda expected that going in. Located in the heart of town, many restaurants and shopping are within easy walking distance. Only issue was that for us the room was too warm even when the temperature was turned all the way down. We had to crack the windows to sleep which made the room noisy with the sounds of the town and wind."

North Apartments Suites

8/10 Good

"We really enjoyed our stay here. The apartment was clean, close to everything and the amenities were good. I am giving 4 stars though because I got into the hot tub and it was clear it had not been cleaed in a while. If I stayed more than one night I would have gotten in touch with the manager. Everything else was good!"

Hotel Norðurland

8/10 Good

"Déjeuner très bien pour le type d’hôtel. Chambre adéquate mais qui aurait besoin d’un petit rafraîchissement. Bien situé."
