Reviews
Pros:
The propriety is beautiful.
Common areas are very well decorated.
Bath towels new and soft.
Breakfast is excellent.
Cons:
Room very stuffy and warm (no AC).
Noisy construction in front of the building and so is the road.
Staff between arrogant and almost rude.
Room/bathroom design weird.
Loose electrical wires hanging out of the walls.
Holder for shampoo and conditioner but nothing there.
The Hotel Akureyri Dynheimar is a firm favourite; its charm and character have been preserved and enhanced by clever interior design choices.
The rooms are generous and very well-fitted. Our room had a large desk, a comfy armchair, a beautiful bathroom, and a king-size bed.
The heated timber floors were a nice touch. This hotel is designed for comfort, and I felt right at home as soon as I arrived.
The hotel's location is neatly sandwiched between the old and new parts of the town. The hotel itself overlooks the water and is within easy walking distance of everything you could need.
A lovely stop over, we only did one night here but I could have stayed forever!!
The lounge area was very relaxing and the bar staff were great.
