A Playful Stay with a Cozy Touch

Hotel Akureyri is a pretty unconventional hotel situated in 4 unique buildings in the center of Akureyri.
Our goals are to provide modern comforts, timeless experiences & excellent value to all of our guests

We are here to help!

Our team isn’t just here to check you in; we’re here to check all your boxes.
Need the best local hike that ends with a lagoon soak? We’ve got the intel. Lost your mitten to an unexpected gust of Icelandic wind? We’ll track down a replacement (or at least teach you how to say “Ég týndi vettlingnum mínum” with flair).
Whatever Akureyri throws your way, we’re ready to catch it—with enthusiasm, a bit of local wisdom, and just the right amount of mischief.
Hyper local traditions

North restaurant was founded by chef Gunnar Karl Gislason who also operates Dill restaurant in Reykjavik

Inspired by the Icelandic landscape and dedicated to fresh ingredients, foraging, and sustainability, at NORTH, we aim to share an exceptional dining experience that reflects the compelling characteristics of our land.

Best available prices

Skip the middleman and book directly on our website—you’ll get more than just a room. Not only do you lock in the best available price, but you’ll also be greeted with a welcome drink (cheers to that!) and first dibs on free room upgrades when available. Because why settle for ordinary when you could be sipping something delicious in an even better room?
No hidden fees, no nonsense—just perks, priority, and the best stay possible.
Icelandic breakfast

Mornings at Hotel Akureyri start the proper way—fueling up like a true Icelander. Our breakfast spread is a delicious mix of local flavors and hearty classics: freshly baked bread, creamy skyr, and just the right amount of pickled goodness. Coffee? Strong enough to wake a Viking.
Whether you're off to chase waterfalls or simply conquer a second croissant, we’ve got the perfect start to your day. Góða ferð!
Happy Happy 🥳

During Happy Hour (16 - 20), we pour the best of Iceland, from crisp local craft beers to creative cocktails and handpicked wines. Whether you're after a classic with a Nordic twist or just a cozy corner with a well-earned drink, we've got you covered.
Come for the drinks, stay for the vibe—because every great Icelandic tale deserves a proper toast. Skál! 🍷
