Hotels in Hrisey Island

"Good breakfast, and great location next to the lake. Got a free upgrade to the room with front lake view, from the sweet receptionist in front. Thanks a ton!"

"Breakfast was very good but the owners of the hotel are the best..."

"Beautiful property and location! The owners gave us a quick tour and recommendations for the area when we arrived. Would absolutely stay again!"

"Wasn’t able to get into the reception area and didn’t have clear instructions to check in. Had to go into town and get help from a local coffee shop, who called the hotel owner to get us in. Coffee shop staff was super helpful and had great food so that helped get over the hassle of check in. Overall, the place was quiet, in a great location, and had what we needed."

"We stayed in one of the small houses for two nights in April 2026. We had two beautiful days/nights. The radiant floors were a standout. The house faces west, which huge picture windows to the west and north. During the first night, we happened to catch a quick showing of northern lights. On the first morning, we spent several hours with the provided binoculars watching a minke whale and a few dolphins. Needless to say, we were super excited. Checkin was super easy as was checkout. There's a small two-burner stove top and mini fridge for anyone who wishes to prepare meals. The hosts provide a selection of CDs, books, and games. The wifi was super strong, which helped us with remote work and streaming a movie. Silence and relaxation were the real deal here. We had no problems ascending/descending the stairs to the bedroom, especially with the provided railings. If you stay three or more nights, self-service laundry is available, which is a great feature. There's a few cool things to do in Akureyri, and it's not a far drive into the city. We highly recommend staying at this property."

"Enjoyed my stay again in general, clean and comfortable. Host was helpful when I had a hot tub temperature issue. Two even better if's: I wish they would proactively send you the check in like others do, instead of making you contact in advance. The towel rail was making a big noise clanking on the wall which woke me up."

"The hotel is well managed and all staff were friendly. Rooms were spacious and clean. We enjoyed eating at the Moroccan restaurant there."

"Great place, everything was perfect for a short stay. Will look to come back again. Thank you."

"Nice host. Hot shower. Good view."
