    We do not recommend taking the breakfast. Small buffet with little choice, crowded at opening time, we were lucky to find a seat and it was difficult to get something you want because the best stuff was taken quickly and you're left to wonder what you'll put on your plate. The staff were quick enough to refill but price for value is low.

    The room was great, modern, clean, had a smart TV, great bathroom, fridge, couch etc. Drying lockers are a plus. There are washing machines at your disposal and you can park your car right outside your room.

    The shower was awkward. It also has nowhere to put your own bath products.

    The room was a nice size. Beds were comfortable. Amenities were good, but a hair dryer would have been a great addition.

    If I had to nit pick, I’d say I would have like to have a kettle to make hot drinks and a hair dryer, thankfully I brought my own. Also it is not central - because I didn’t drive I had to take taxies. Despite all of this I would still choose this hotel.

    Modern, very clean, very spacious room. TV had all the apps, I love the patio doors, the view is incredible. The room had plenty of towels, bedding. It’s very quiet, I never heard any outside noises.

    The jacuzzi closes at 10pm so we didnt get to use it. I think they could keep it open all day as there is no staff anyway.

    Beautifully designed, spacious rooms. The automated check-in and check-out makes it very easy to arrive and leave the property any time. There was a coffee machine with capsules in the room, very nice touch. Black outs worked perfectly. The hotel is situated just outside of the main part of Akureyri but if you have a car it’s really not a problem and in exchange the views are amazing. You can park you car right outside at the terrace of each room so it’s very easy to move heavy luggage in and out.

    Automatic doors can be finicky.

    Great place to stay when exploring north Iceland. Myvatn area is fairly close by as well as the diamond ring. The hotel is very new. The rooms are big, modern, clean and comfortable.

    This place is very modern, extremely clean and located on a small hill in Akureyri, meaning that the view is great from up there! It also has two outdoor hot tubs right outside the main entrance (they don't have the view, but are still so cool!), a vast kitchen and even a storage room for bikes and ski equipment! We really enjoyed our stay and Akureyri is really a gem worth visiting!

    The hotel complex has great promise and may have reached it by now, but was still under construction when I stayed there (spring 2023). At least one more building looked around half-completed, though the one my room was in seemed to be basically done and there was nothing about it that in any way detracted from my stay. Construction noise in the area was minimal and never at inappropriate hours.

    Facilities and overall location have great promise. I visited during the spring, so can't comment on the neighboring ski resort. But the hotel is clearly outfitted to make trips there easy with a changing area and (large!) self-service equipment lockers that will easily fit multiple sets of skis and snowboards per room. Room itself was great - large, clean, and with modern furnishings, although I could not for the life of me figure out the dimmer light switches. Either I'm dumb or they were wired incorrectly, probably the first.

    One thing that was a little weird was no jets in the hot tub. Might just be a European thing, definitely not a deal breaker though.

    Decent location, the rooms were modern and the code lock system for the room was convenient. No fumbling around for a room key or card. Was thoroughly surprised by how nice the room was considering the price and location. probably one of my favorite towns from my trip

    The hotel had a "slightly unfinished" feel in certain areas; just a few final touches were lacking. That said, it was really not a significant impact on our stay. An extra washer/ dryer or two would be a welcome addition, given the number of rooms in the complex.

    We arrived late around 8pm but check-in was easy, using the pin codes that we'd been sent. The room was spacious, had a fresh new feel about it, excellently appointed bathroom. The communal dining area was adequately equipped and functional. The washing machine and dryer were very handy. Easy access from carpark to our room through the sliding door off the external courtyard. Expansive views over Akureyri.
