I stayed at this hostel during a visit to Akueyri for a conference at the university. It is located about a 20 minute walk from the University and Downtown, but is very close to a mall, grocery store and two bakeries, which was very convenient. The rooms are average sized with 4-5 beds. There are desks and chairs in some... More

We stayed here two nights and thoroughly enjoyed both Akureyri (especially the surroundings) and the Hostel. The hostel is well set up, has a good location, is clean and friendly. The student receptionist working there during our stay was very helpful and efficient. She organised a horse ride for us (at a discount rate offered to all hostel guests). They... More

I stayed here quite a while ago (2003) but I always remember this place as one of the best hostels I've ever been to. First of all, it was easy to find and parking was available and free. The walk into town is very short and easy. The owner is a native to Akureyri and was very friendly--especially for an... More

Host very helpful with travel questions. We were upgraded to a room with a t.v. (my 16 year old was thrilled!) The large, clean kitchen was our very own in the off-season! More
