It looks like a jail but a wonderful proper jail. The design is prestigious and the activities there, are insolent. They made a Netflix movie during my last stay...

It is considered the best place to observe the aurora. I booked for 2 days and stayed for only one day as the road was controlled, but it was worth the cost. This is because we were able to see the aurora for the first time here, which we had not seen for six days.

-Nice room- small but functional, cozy and clean, with cute design solutions, such as the bed being located in a niche; complimentary coffee capsules in the room; no complimentary water due to the fact that the local tap water is among the cleanest in the world and everybody drinks it -The hotel is located directly at the old harbor in close proximity to the city center (4-5 minutes). My room had a view directly to a ship on dry dock ; I guess it's a matter of taste, but in my case it added to the authenticity and I liked it very much. The harbor also offers a lot of restaurants with traditional food (such as the famous lobster soup) and half-day activities such as whale-watching. -Friendly and helpful staff -The hotel is equipped with a good cocktail bar and a charming library to relax -Bear in mind that Iceland is a very expensive country; the hotel is anything but cheap- with all the discounts I paid 210 EUR per night, however compared to the other hotels around the center of this class actually it was the most competitive, so in order to be fair I've decided to state the price as a positive factor, given the overall prices in Reykjavik

We liked everything: breakfast was good and included in the price. The room had heating which was important because of the weather. The hotel is located in the very center of the city and from there it is easy to reach all the main places of the city. The reception helped me with all my questions, everything was nice.

What guests said about Akranes:

Akranes is a pleasant community within east driving distance...

Akranes is a pleasant community within east driving distance to Reykjavik. Accommodations there are less expensive compared to the surrounding are but also are not as updated. There was one good sit-down restaurant in the town. The public swimming pool was nice and there a public geothermal baths on the beach there. When the fish factory opens, whole portions of the town stink of fish. If you are looking for more affordable accommodation for a one night stop, this town is a good option, but there is not much to see and do in the town itself.

Akranes is one of our favorite day trips from Reykjavík.

Akranes is one of our favorite day trips from Reykjavík. We usually take the bus out and back, although I could see it being a great longer stop for non-locals too. It is much quieter with far less tourist traffic than other towns around Iceland. The lighthouse is a delight. It is open to the public most days and has amazing acoustics. The lighthouse keeper invites folks to sing or play instruments and will happily accommodate musicians who want to record there! There are also wonderful beaches and a public pool by the ocean. The museum is also lovely. We walk the town for the trip, but I could see a car being useful as well.

We had a nice stay. The rooms and radiators were a little bit cold, which was surprising giving all Iceland geothermal energy. The kitchen was fine. Nice public shared living area. Quick and good information from the owner via the booking app. About 5 km. away is a nice public hot swimming pool. Beds OK. Cleanness OK Very good and free parking facilities. All in all good value for money. We liked it.

A peaceful cabin in the middle of a "wood", the host decorated with detail and so passionate that I can feel it. You have everything that you need. Certainly if I comeback to Iceland I will book this cabin. Only one caveat, make sure when you come still have daylight to find the cabin.

A lovely place to stay on our last night in Iceland. Nice layout of the living spaces with interesting books about the local area. A great evening spent with my family. I would have loved to have spent more time there.

Cute little annex room with a good kitchen (hob, fridge, microwave). Nice location, however near a busier road compared to a lot of our other stays around the island.
