These Northern Iceland wooden bungalows are 50 minutes’ drive from Akureyri. Each has a private terrace with an outdoor hot tub and mountain views of the Tröllaskagi Peninsula.

This place is such a vibe. It is so cosy and simple. It really gives of country vibes. All needed amenities where there. We were only four people staying there but it is equipped for up to 8. When staying there definitely consider using the nice hot tub at night. Its just great.

A good location for a stress-free getaway in Ólafsfjörður, Klara Guesthouse is a guest house surrounded by views of the mountain.

Smartly designed and maintained interior, comfortable beds, convenient bathrooms and breakfast room which is small for the house but if one can arrange its shared use with other guests, no problem there. Nice coffee on the ground floor unfortunately opening as we were leaving at 10:30. As is usual in Iceland you don't meet the host (all is beautifully informal) but feel cared for anyway.

Located in Litli-Árskógssandur, within 35 km of Hof - Cultural Center and Conference Hall, Waterfront Fjord House is an accommodation offering sea views.

Super cozy studio with a beautiful view of the fiords. Bonus: we managed to see the Northern lights! The studio had everything needed, cozy room, nice shower and amenities plus coffee and laundry machine if needed. You feel at home there.

Salt Guesthouse is situated in Siglufjörður. Free WiFi is provided throughout the property. At the guest house, every unit is fitted with bed linen and towels.

The room was tiny but super cozy and comfortable. We did not use the big communal space, but the guest house is nice, well kept and organized.

Located in Hrísey, Syðstibær Guesthouse features a garden and a shared lounge. The guest house provides mountain views, a sun terrace, and free WiFi is available throughout the property.

This was an excellent experience to visit Hrisey. Despite the outside look it was very clean well equipt and cozy. The beads were amazing the check in was simple. I loved it here.

    The accommodation was easy to find and easy to check in. The accommodation had great cooking facilities and plenty of room in the shared refrigerator. They also had a complimentary coffee, tea, and cocoa machine. The room was quiet. It was small but comfortable.

    Basic but very good. Klara guesthouse offers self-check in, rooms were spotlessly clean. Good hot shower and a small kitchen that is well-equipped. A great place to overnight if you need a break from the tent/are going to see the whales in dalvik the following morning. Communication from the host was very reactive. Our stay was exactly what we needed 😀

    Easy late check in. Quiet accommodation in panoramic surrounding. Although I forgot to order breakfast in advance I was offered coffee and tea by the very kind hostess Ida.
