Nice farm location. Room was simple, but clean. Host was charming and the food was very good. I would recommend having them cook your dinner. Tasty and reasonably priced for Iceland.

Guesthouse Baegisa is an idyllic location a few miles outside of Akureyri. Just a gorgeous location in the countryside. The hosts at Guesthouse Baegisa were charming and helpful. The breakfasts there were wonderful. We loved the peaceful surroundings and wished we had a few more days to stay there. We highly recommend this place.

The guesthouse is on a sheep farm so it is very quiet. Yet it is conveniently located not far from a main road but away from the city nearby. The proprietress, Elisabeth, came out of her house to welcome us as we drove up the driveway and guided us to our room. It was a very warm reception. Our room (twin room) was on the small side but workable. It was clean and warm even though the wind was howling outside. The dinner we ordered turned out to be a typical Icelandic dish, and it was delicious. The main course was surpassed by the dessert. Breakfast was excellent; it included eggs cooked to order. We had a most enjoyable stay.

Guesthouse Baegisa is an absolutely beautiful property! The hosts were lovely and most helpful. The breakfasts were wonderful. It is located in some spectacular countryside. We would highly, highly recommend this location for those looking for a quiet, peaceful location but close enough to Akureyi to enjoy what the town has to offer

everything - elisabeth was so friendly and helpful; place was cosy, peaceful and quiet yet close to town; breakfast was superb (amazing homemade granola and granola bar); homemade cookies were delicious! only regret is that we didn't manage to try dinner as we could not book it in time, and that we couldn't stay any longer 11/10 would absolutely recommend to anyone, thank you again elisabeth!

Liked everything

The property is very beautiful with a Mountain View. You wake up next to cows, sheep, and dogs. The sheep came right up to the fence then we witnessed their dog going to work to herd the sheep away from us. Very neat experience. Elisabeth was a great host. Her son was right next door and was also very accommodating when we needed help late. The beds were the most comfortable beds we slept in our entire trip.

Warm atmosphere, kind Lady from the Guesthouse and breakfast full of good things to eat. The best one in our Icelandic trip so far!

The guesthouse was located at a perfect location, relatively near akureyri but it felt remote enough, surrounded by mountains, with a small waterfall and farm animals around the area. The host is very accommodating and friendly and made us feel directly at home. The room itself was quite spacious and felt modern, while the kitchen was very well equipped and cosy!

Everything was fine.

Elisabeth was incredibly welcoming and kind. She prepared a wonderful breakfast for us in the morning and offered tasty homemade cookies in jars in the kitchen. There were also card games and books available for entertainment.

Elisabeth was very accommodating and friendly. She made us beautiful breakfast in the morning and had delicious homemade cookies in jars in the kitchen. You could also find card games and books to amuse yourself. And not to mention the beautiful dogs that come to you for cuddles. My teenage daughter loved it. I recommend staying here, kids will love it too.

This lovely guesthouse is a gem. The rooms are clean, warm and cosy. But the best part of the stay is the lovely host Elisabeth. She offered to prepare us dinner, because the stay is away from any other restaurants. She allowed us access to the washer and drier, so we could clean and dry our bathing suits and towels. All the little handmade details, the selected decorations and dishes give this place a special soul. The breakfast was delicious also, with everything you could want. Would really recommend this stay.

Everything! Elisabeth is an amazing host. Greeting us with warmth and kindness, making us feel at home right away. She prepared a wonderfully delicious home cooked meal for dinner, the best we had in Iceland. And also breakfast was fantastic, everything homemade. Her attention to detail is remarkable. We wished we could have stayed longer.

We wished we could've stayed longer.

We loved everything, the reception with three dogs, the farm environment with animals, the clean and comfortable rooms. Fabulous breakfast! Unfortunately we didn't have a homemade dinner but the wonderful Astrid made a delicious homemade cake for my son's birthday - thank you very much, Astrid! - She also gave us information about the island. If you come to Akureyri, we would highly recommend Guesthouse Baegisa.

Everything was honestly perfect. We wished we could've stayed longer.

The hosts were absolutely fabulous. They greeted us, showed us our room, and were super accommodating with breakfast. We had an early morning, and they were super kind, giving us homemade baked goods for our travels. The rooms were super clean, and you get to enjoy their farm ambiance, the views, and peaceful serenity. The shared space is comfortable. This was our favorite place we stayed in Iceland and wish we had stayed longer than one night.
