Featuring a self check-in service, this guesthouse is located in the heart of Akureyri.

Not appropriate for 2 single people as the sofa bed is very uncomfortable, with a big ridge down the middle. Also, I messaged and asked for 2 beds to be made, but we had to make the sofa bed ourselves.

Guesthouse Pétursborg has sea views, free WiFi and free private parking, situated in Akureyri, 41 km from Godafoss Waterfall. Guests staying at this guest house have access to a patio.

The guesthouse was close to Akureyri (8 - 10 minute) drive. The cottage was clean and easy checkin checkout instructions, in our checkout it was nice that we saw the farm chicken. Great experience overall and would definitely recommend.

Boasting a garden as well as a shared lounge, North Inn - Guesthouse and Cabin is situated in Akureyri, within 37 km of Godafoss Waterfall and 13 km of Hof - Cultural Center and Conference Hall.

Nicely placed, close to Akureyri and Mývatn. I had not gotten the key box code when I got there, but a quick call to the "reception" solved that issue perfectly. Thanks for the stay!

    The room was spacious, as was the bathroom, but the shower cabin was very small. The location in the city centre was great, with many restaurants and cafes nearby. The guesthouse was rather quiet, and the common room was clean.

    Great location, quiet street within walking distance of downtown and the Hof. Very lovely, with a beautifully equipped kitchen with plenty of space for food preparation. Hostess was very gracious, and obviously cares about guest experience.

    Beautiful guesthouse on a farm close to the ring road, very clean, cozy rooms with a charming, personal decor. Elisabeth was an extraordinary, very welcoming hostess, and her dishes were wonderful. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious with many homemade ingredients (e.g. bread, jam, etc.). It was definitely the best and most convivial accommodation during our stay in Iceland.

    Don’t let the outside fool you. I was sceptical when I saw the outside of the building, and no sign telling this was the guesthouse. But inside: so clean, nice and every guest was considerate and quiet. Also close to city center. Perfect for families!

    The quaint and cozy guesthouse is a perfect distance from the hustle and bustle of the nearby city with amazing scenic views. Elisabeth is a wonderful host - friendly, Knowledgeable and a great cook! The facilities were clean and quiet set in a lovely country side. Elisabeth was even kind enough to introduce us to her new born calf and lambs! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
