An original Akureyri building. In the middle of the shopping strip. Free parking one block away from 4pm-10am; totally free on weekends. Walkable to see all of the sights including the Harbor or Old Towne. They will also make Tour Arrangements for you. Close to the Forest Lagoon, which is open 10am-12am. Convenient to Husavik for Whale Watching and Puffin Sightings. Please note that shower facilities are in the basement. Each floor has multiple WCs and sinks. For a fee, there is a Laundry. It really doesn’t get dark in Akureyri so bring an Eye Mask. The Bar can get a little loud since there is outdoor seating. If this bothers you, bring earplugs. It did not bother me; I live near an airport and usually sleep with a lamp on! The only minus would be the rude Guests who don’t flush the toilets during the night. Not cool!

Ostello a 4 stelle
Ostello accogliente e ben servito, in zona centralissima. Non è ben chiaro dove sia l'ingresso (direttamente dentro il bar)

Very unique and convenient being above a restaurant! Bathrooms were clean. Bedroom was minimal and quiet! All check-in and check-out is online. Note: dinner stops at 8pm, but the bar stays open until 10pm. The staff was VERY friendly, which was so nice to talk to fellow travelers who happen to live and work in Iceland. HIGHLY recommend staying here for a night or two!

The check-in was uncomplicated. The rooms are equipped with the most necessary and clean. Only the showers could have been a bit cleaner. The hostel has a good location. You can reach many sights in Akureyri by foot.

The shared facilities were the best for camping. The pods we slept in felt great although we flipped the mattress, the space the had many outlets, ample heat and insulated walls. Surrounding the area with cool walking paths to a lake and the waterfall by the restaurant was amazing! It's a dark zone to see the sky perfectly at night!

3 nights in Akureyri
I had the double room. It is very basic, a bed, a small table with 2 chairs, 2 bedside tables, a bin, a mirror on the wall and some hooks for hanging clothes.
The bed was very comfortable, you can adjust the heating to your liking so my room was always comfortably warm.
The shared toilet facilities on my floor (3rd floor) were great...clean and always stocked.
I cannot comment on food or the showers as I did not use those options. But the showers are accessible next to the bar, but you will have to go down the stairs and past the restaurant/bar to get there.
Be aware this is a hostel and it will get very noisy on a Saturday night, there is no soundproofing.
Bit the Sunday and Monday I had the floor to myself so it was quiet.
Overall I had a good stay there.
If you book any tours with a pickup service, they will pick you up outside the entrance.
And do have a hotdog or two from the van down the road, they are good!

We visited this bar everyday on our trip. The food was great and the whole feel of the bar was cozy and relaxed. The drinks selection was vast! The staff really look after you and remembered us so greeted us like locals. Such a great find! We wish we would have stayed here also.

Great place with a great atmosphere. Really enjoyed our time there. Good coffees and hot chocolates too. I’ve forgotten the managers name (Mog-something)- a fabulous Polish man and he was hilarious, hospitable and had the best energy. Highly recommend

Decent place for cheap
Good cheap spot for a night. Definitely had a college vibe to it, people up partying late. The room was nice and big with lots of outlets. The showers were not so great. I didn't mind them being in the basement so much, but it's the kind of shower you want to wear flip flops in, and mine completely flooded out into the main area, luckily I was the only one in there. At least the shower stalls are large!

Appartamento spazioso,pulito e molto confortevole nel centro di Akureyri. Cucina, salotto, bagno e camera perfette. Noi abbiamo soggiornato per 2 notti e direi che ne è valsa la pena. Per il check in bisogna entrare nel pub e chiedere ai ragazzi dietro al balcone.
