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.

location was absolutely perfect to spend a few days in Akureyri. Right along the main strip, close to everything you could want. Room was big, comfortable, and felt luxurious. Huge windows were a great bonus with curtains that provide a good level of darkness for sleep. The bed was extremely comfortable. The breakfast is lovely - yogurts, oatmeal, toast, etc. coffee was delicious.

    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!

    We loved everything. Location is charming, quick drive to Akureyri. Superp service. The owner was next level helpful, just á great host. Fantastic food, both the breafast buffey and also the dinner buffey (one of the best we’ve ever had. Big rooms, comfortable beds, cheap beer and the best thing was the breath taking view. Sauna, hot tub and pool nice touch. We’ll only book this hotel on all of our up coming trips.
