Hotels With Bar in Northeastern Region, Iceland

We were part of a Nordic Visitor tour. Like most hotels in Iceland we encountered on our tour, this was a Ikea-like room. Modern, small, efficient, clean, quiet. For example, we had coat rack for a closet and a very small bathroom you could barely move around in. But we were on route and were to spend only one night there, and the bathroom had great hot water (as all hotels in Iceland do, of course) and lovely shampoos. So who cares. If a room is clean and quiet with a good bed for a good night's rest, I am a happy traveller. This room had no surprises. The biggest surprise, however, was the food. Superior! We had a set meal of totato soup, cod, and kyr. Each had a distinctive treatment and were simply delicious. The dining room also added to the ambiance not having the usual cafeteria-look we encountered on the tour elsewhere. With breakfast also being nicely done, all in all we enjoyed our brief stay there.

I’m writing this review on my first night staying at this hotel. The location is great, the property is beautiful, and the staff are lovely, but I can’t give this hotel a high rating because they have fallen into the trap of prioritizing “design” over comfort, when design *should be* comfort in a hotel. The bathrooms are very problematic. The *number one* priority when it comes to bathrooms is privacy, and these bathrooms have absolutely none. A sliding glass door separates the toilet from the room. You may as well be sitting on the toilet in the middle of the room. (Never mind the fact that if you turn on the bathroom light in the middle of the night it will illuminate the entire room.) The shower is completely open onto the room, so if my partner wakes up early tomorrow, I really can’t sleep in. And why, in 2024, are there not outlets next to the bed? This is basic stuff. Putting aside the fact that it just makes charging one’s phone inconvenient, there are other more important things to consider. My partner uses a CPAP machine. Without an outlet next to the bed, we have to plug the machine in to the outlet that is on the other side of the bathroom door, which is going to be a tripping hazard in the middle of the night. I’m not looking forward to another night here. It’s very, very disappointing.

The rooms in this hotel are very high-end, the breakfast in the hotel is delicious, the overall environment is very hygienic, and the reception staff are very patient. I will choose this hotel again next time. Mihu Lake is beautiful.

Mixed experience. We had to book very last minute when the Ring Road flooded and we could not get to our next destination via the Southern route. So at 10 PM the night before we had to re-route and go North and all around the island to get to the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. The good: The on line rates were exceptional, given that most hotels along the Golden Circle and Reykjavik cost $350-$450. This was $160 including breakfast. We were very grateful they could accommodate us. The location was excellent and we were able to park outside of the hotel even though we arrived close to 9 PM. Lovely funky lobby-mixture of traditional/historical and fun modern touches. Great windows and very inviting and large. The mixed: Our room had a low sloping roof on one side of the bed, and it would be easy to seriously injure yourself in the middle of the night. Quite tiny, but fine for one night. The breakfast offerings were only fair and the breakfast room is so tiny, that you have to carry your food from the breakfast room to the lobby where there are nice tables to sit and eat. But each time you needed something, you had to walk across the lobby, up the stairs and wait in line to get something. Offerings were very limited compared to elaborate buffet breakfasts at other hotels where we stayed. Nothing hot except coffee. As mentioned, the view of the water is partially obstructed by a bunch of new condo buildings, but our room maintained a nice view. The bad: 1)Our toilet did not flush and ran all night, starting at midnight. There is no one at the desk at that hour and we would have been too tired to move rooms anyway, but essentially we had no toilet except by going down to the lobby area in the morning. When I told the front desk the next day, she said “thanks for telling us”, but I think a partial refund would have been a nice offer. Since we had a long drive ahead of us, I was not going to make a fuss. 2) The confirmation email received at the time fo booking said that I would get an email at 2 PM on check in day with location of my room and check in code. It said that the hotel was spread across several historic buildings, so we would need information about where to go. I never got this check in email and was quite anxious when we were having dinner at 8:30 PM and no check in information. When I called, I was told to come to the front desk and our room was not in a separate building but right upstairs. I believe this confirmation email needs to be changed and guests instructed to check in in-person. We had a lovely walk around the town before checking out and a good dinner down the street. Despite the complaints, I would stay here again because of location and price.

Very good hotel. Very good hotel and I will visit it again

1. The front desk and breakfast are close to their dairy factory. The living environment of the cows inside is very clean and the staff take good care of them. 2. The room is located in a row of log cabins across the road, which is very comfortable. 3. Breakfast is great 4. The girl at the front desk was very polite and patient.

Wow…what a fantastic place. We stayed in 8 different hotels during our vacation to Iceland, and this was definitely one of our favorites. The view overlooking the harbor was very nice, and there is a quaint restaurant and bar on site. They also have a large hot tub for the guests to use. Our room was spacious and decorated in a wonderful relaxing style. The front staff were very friendly, and the food served in the restaurant was very good. I highly recommend this hotel, and look forward to returning again.

Great location by the Lake Myvate, clean, spacious room with beautiful view of the lake and the craters. Great breakfast selection too, love the waffle making self-service station. Highly recommended hotel in the area.

Very kind people, who helped me when I needed to resolve a problem with my booking. a capsule Hotel that is a very good idea for hostels and it is also funny to sleep in a spatial-like room. The unique problem maybe is the weak electricity to recharge phone... but you can recharge your electrical stuff in the common area. I warmly reccommend to stay in this hostel if you are in Akureyri, it's in the city centre with parking in the street.

Myself and my partner were booked to stay here from a Saturday evening through until Monday afternoon. This was the longest we were staying anywhere on our journey around the country, mostly enticed in by the promise of whale watching and the JaJa Ding Dong cafe and Eurovision experience. It would be fair to say that this was to be the absolute highlight of our holiday and the main reason that we’d decided to holiday in Iceland. On arrival, there were no staff present and our room key was on the front desk for us to collect. First impressions of our room were good. It was large, very warm and the huge bed was very comfortable. However, when looking for a plug socket, I found that the floor was coated in a thick layer of dust and dirt in the corners. We also noticed that there was only one tea bag and no cups in our room for us to use. Undeterred, as British people in need of a tea fix, we left our bags in the room and excitedly hurried next door to JaJa Ding Dong, only to find an upside down sign in the window stating it was ‘closed until further notice.’ Everywhere we looked online said it was open, we weren’t notified by the staff that there was an issue with the cafe and we couldn’t find any clues as to why it was closed or when it might reopen. Come the following morning, we realised that the closure meant there was now nowhere to have breakfast. Most of the places in town were closed as it was Sunday. We’d also not had the greatest nights sleep as the heating was on full blast all night with no way to turn it down. I also had to shower with the door open as the bathroom had become unbearably hot. To continue our run of bad luck, our whale watching trip got cancelled (we know that is in no way the fault of the hotel) and that led us to decide to cut our losses and leave Husavik by Sunday lunchtime. Overall, we had a very disappointing stay and probably wouldn’t return. Husavik seems like a lovely town though.

This is a hotel in the downtown area of Akreli. The bar is downstairs. It is open until late. We stayed very late. The room is very large. There is a separate kitchen and bathroom. There is also a large balcony. You can see the street in the city center. There is no front desk. There is a bar waiter. We arrived late, we couldn't connect to Wi-Fi, we only connected the next morning, the kitchen utensils did not have knives, others had

Wonderful room, accommodating and cozy hotel. The breakfast was fresh and delicious and the staff was very kind. The concierge doubled as a bar, so we were able to order and take drinks into the room which was a nice plus. The lobby was like that of your favorite older relative who has stories about places all over the world and the trinkets to prove it. I really wish I could have stayed here longer but we were quite limited in time. It's not within the city center but if you have a car, it's literally a minute drive down the mountain.

My wife and I booked a double room in this hotel, full of rooms, and the door of the room is already using electronic locks! The first floor is the restaurant, check in is also at the restaurant counter, check in with a free drink from the restaurant. The kitchen has a simple microwave and a kettle to use. The bathroom is in the basement, and it will definitely pass the restaurant on the first floor. It feels a bit strange, and men may still go wrong into the women's bathroom. This part is a bit strange in the design of the compartment. There is a bar behind the hotel, which will be very noisy before snoring at night. Even if the soundproof airtight window is closed, it is quite loud; and the door bow buffer of the restaurant door on the first floor of the hotel is not enough, and the closing will affect the upstairs!

Great location by the Lake Myvate, clean, spacious room with beautiful view of the lake and the craters. Great breakfast selection too, love the waffle making self-service station. Highly recommended hotel in the area.

Very very good, really happy! My husband has always praised me that this hotel is well booked. It is recommended to consider this hotel after the tour from Lake Myvatn. There is a natural hot spring. It is a hot spring pool covered by the natural hot spring that the owner flows down from the mountain. We didn't take a dip in the Blue Lake and Lake Myvatn this time because the schedule was too tight, but because this hotel comes with it, we took two dips in the evening and in the morning. After the dip, our hands and feet were warm. Advantages: The room is large and has a small balcony. A small table and two chairs are placed for guests to relax and drink tea. The room is clean and hygienic, and the bathroom decoration is also very comfortable. There are natural hot springs outside. The breakfast was pretty good. The price is also very nice. Disadvantages: None.
