The location is good for have a good leisure day in Akureyri. near the church and community. unfortunately it was snowing on the day we arrived but we still enjoy the good vibe and facilities ( the kitchen ) of the hotel. The staff is great to provide information about car park and allow us for late check out while we were waiting for the road condition.

“Hótel Apótek, Akureyri”
Nice location, handy for everything. Good taxi company a couple of minutes walk for lifts to Forest Lagoon, airport, local attractions and activities. Shops within easy walk in all directions. Centrum Kitchen and Bar, which runs Hotel Apotek, is right next door, with really nice staff and great breakfasts. Plus, they will store luggage if needed! Room was clean, and the shower was good. There is a great kitchen/lounge on the top floor for self catering.

It was my second time staying there. The staff is always super friendly and helpful. The room is big enough and even has a sink in it.

“Guesthouse to avoid”
Tiny room, not clean under the bed. No towels (we stayed in 7 different places in Iceland and it was the only one with no towels). The kitchen was not clean. We did not try the shower. We were supposed to stay 3 nights but we left after 1 night. The property was even not cheap.

“Nice hostel on a fun street”
On a very lively street with lots of fun things to see and do. And yet the rooms are separated from the noise, so it was nice and quiet. Check in is at the bar next door. Good kitchen, although I had to clean up after all the other guests who just left their dishes everywhere. Be respectful and wash your own dishes when you're at a hostel!

“You get what you pay for, 2 star hotel for a reason, good for what it is”
Location was good, straight down town next to few restaurants and shops, the restaurant was good and breakfast as well but over all it was okey, good enough for a sleep or 2, not for a long stay
