We spent one night here in March, and enjoyed our stay. The room was warm and clean, and the view splendid. The WiFi was weak in our room, but perfect in the lobby. The breakfast had everything we needed. The restaurant was only open if we booked beforehand, and only one menu was served. The service was excellent. We had... More

After traveling for 16 hours from Ireland we arrived well after dinner service was finished and the owner opened the kitchen and provided us with cold meats and bread, which was most welcome. Our rooms were clean and comfortable and we slept well. Breakfast was excellent with hot bacon and eggs along with old meats, cheese, cereal and fruits. The... More

This country hotel is just 10 minutes outside of Akureyri and does have an amazing setting and view. I much prefer this location than in town. The sunset from the deck on the front of the inn is spectacular. Blankets are provided for a chilly evening sitting outside on the deck and enjoying the view. Our room had a similar... More

Nice hotel, beautiful out-of-town Location We prefer country locations with a good view and this certainly what we look for. It would appear (maybe just our experience but we asked this) that the hotel caters mainly for German bus tours. Indeed I think that we were the only non-Germans there. Our room was spacious and had an excellent view over... More

My only regret is that we only stayed one night here... Just a short drive from Akureyri, it easily serves as a base to visit Myvatn and Godafoss. We were met with utmost hospitality at the reception, and were given a quick personal tour of the facilities on site: a huge kitchen n a whirlpool that guests can use: and... More

After a long drive we found the hotel on Route No: 1 but 15kms from the town. As it was low season the restaurant was not fully open and we were advised it would take about ten minutes to drive into town. As we were unpacking the owner came to say he could rustle up something for us if we... More

We spent two nights in Countryhotel Sveinbjarnargerdi in early November of this year. The location is perfect--right on the Ring Road with plenty of free parking, a large deck out front, a beautiful fireplace in the lobby, and a bar for an evening drink while relaxing. The hotel is only a 10 minute drive from Akureyri and you can easily... More

We stayed two nights in this hotel in october, as part of a 16-day tour round the island. Although there were very few other guests (the first night we we the only guests), the owner went out of his way to make sure we had a pleasant stay. He cooked us a lovely 3-course dinner each night, which was the... More

A well-maintained hotel with a view along the hillsides overlooking the water. It is only a short drive to Akureyri. Friendly staff greeted us and offered a lot of suggestions on where to visit. While the bathroom was a bit small, it was very clean, and the room featured hardwood floors. There was plenty of common area space at the... More
