What guests think

At Akureyri - Berjaya Iceland Hotels, guests often praise friendly, helpful staff and consistently clean, comfortable rooms, while noting recurring drawbacks such as compact layouts, road-facing noise, and warm temperatures in summer due to limited cooling and short blackout curtains.

The location is walkable to downtown, the harbor, and the botanical garden, though the hill back can be steep. Breakfast and the on-site restaurant earn frequent compliments, but several reviewers mention high prices and limited vegetarian choices. Facilities most cited are free parking and a pleasant lobby bar/lounge. Overall, expect a clean, comfortable stay in a convenient spot with some layout, heat, and noise compromises.

This was a good property for us. Close enough to walk to the city center but not in the heart so a little less noisy perhaps. One busy street along the hotel but not bad after say 11 pm. We dined here and it was excellent. The dining staff was particularly friendly and really made our anniversary dinner special. We would stay at this hotel again.

It’s only about 2 blocks from downtown, which is really nice! It was a very easy check in, they do need your passport number if you’re checking in, but that’s easy. The bar in the lobby is very nice great selection!

the hotel was very nice. Very modern, decorated lobby with lots of seating. Bar was nice as well. Room was very nice, we had a couch that we could use to put our luggage on. Very quiet. I like when the sink is outside of the toilet area so two people can get ready more easily. The shower area and toilet area was very small and it was easy for the water from the shower to get over by the toilet and there was no drain on that side

The first-floor room had large windows, which was a weird. However, the shower and bathroom were unclean and unsanitary. The staff were unhelpful, with long wait times. The bed was uncomfortable, and the overall cleanliness of the room and amenities left much to be desired. On the positive side, the hotel offers great parking.

Free parking outside hotel. Hotel is about 10 mins walk to main street in town where there are numerous restaurants so didn’t eat dinner there. It's also about 10 mins walk from the Botanical Gardens. Our room was on the side facing one of the roads and we could hear noisy bikes and boy racers in their cars until very late at night but thankfully quiet in early Saturday morning. The room is spacious and was clean with comfortable beds. The black out curtains fill the windows, though light inevitably comes in under window level as the curtains do not come down to floor level. The design is a bit weird in that above the bed is a shelving unit, fixed at a height that makes it difficult to sit up in bed. A partition wall behind the pillow end of the bed has doorways either side of the bed with the washbasin/wc (with a sliding glass door) on one side and a shower enclosure with curtain at the other. The consequence is that the room becomes humid when someone showers unless you open the windows as the extractor is ineffective. Breakfast had a reasonable range of items and levels were stocked up.

Beautiful view of snow capped mountains. Nice hotel. Our room was a bit odd with the bathroom split and very near the bed of the bed. Couch was a bit aged and dirty. Chairs were a bit aged. No prepared coffee in the lobby. Nice water bottle filling station in the lobby. Walk to downtown was nice past swimming lol, church and museum. Only a few blocks down hill and of course uphill on the way back. Lovely restaurants, shops, and bakery. Back packers Bar and Stykid were highlights. Very nice little town.

No complaints about staying here. It was a great hotel. My one issue is that they don’t have blackout curtains that work. They’re short and allow a lot of light in, which is really unfortunate if you’re staying during the midnight sun when the sun never sets.

I stayed at the hotel for a few days after being released from the hospital after surgery on a broken ankle. I stayed while waiting for my travel insurance to arrange transportation back home in the United States. The staff were all so nice and helpful since it was not easy for me to get around. Someone was always willing to help me fix a plate at breakfast since I was using a walker and could not carry anything. And they did it with a smile!

Our experience was a little unusual from the beginning, but they took good care of us. When we first checked in and went up to our room, the room hadn't been cleaned from the previous guest. We went back down the front desk, and they went up to investigate on their own. They came back down and immediately moved us to an upgraded room. Unfortunately, because of the extended daylight hours in late May and strong sun, our room was at least 80 degrees and the room did not cool down with the small window openings. As both of us were dangerously warm, we asked to be moved to the other side of the building. They were very accommodating and let us move to the other side of the hall. It was still warm, but much more comfortable. That said, we had a great experience with the staff throughout, the restaurant on site was very good, and the breakfast had a variety of options. The hotel is also conveniently located to a lot of grocery stores, gas stations, and dining options.
