Beautiful, cozy cabin. Made dinner for 6 here no problem. The hot tub was great. Within walking distance of a grocery store if it snows hard enough to discourage driving, which it did.

We absolutely loved this place. Our second trip here and this time we rented a cabin. These are not ordinary cabins, these are small homes with a geothermal hot tub set in a small community setting. There is even your own bbq on a huge deck. We would absolutely comeback… only next time use the cabin as our base camp for the north!

Pleasant and Affordable
The rooms are clean and cozy, but very small, which is fine as they are priced accordingly compared to other hotels nearby. My daughter and I enjoyed our time there and would recommend if you're visiting Akureyri.

Not a $450 a night hotel
This is not a $450 a night hotel. It is basically a fancy version of a youth hostel. The rooms are tiny. The hotel is dirty with dead plants in the hallway windows and flies on the windowsills. The door we were told to enter through was blocked by dumpsters and trash bags. The entire hotel smelled bad. The elevator was unusable due to the odor. The outdoor seating area was dirty and dilapidated. Laura at the desk was very nice , but couldn’t help. I asked to cancel the reservation, but she was unwilling. We were in Iceland three weeks. Every hotel was great. Look at my other reviews as I post them. I have never posted a bad review until now. This hotel would have been okay at $200 a night.

Dirty hot tub, overall disappointing
We were extremely excited to stay in one of the private cottage at Hotel Kjarnalundur. We got off to a rough start with unclear directions about how to get to the cottages from the hotel - a simple map at the front desk would have been enormously helpful. After attempting to find it ourselves, we had to return to the front desk and ask for an escort, who showed us to our place. When we got inside it was clean and just as pictured, exactly what we expected. But we booked this stay for the private hot tub. As soon as I turned the water on, dirt and debris flowed out of the drain. We ran about a foot of water that was very dirty, then snapped some pics and drove back to the desk to ask for assistance. She handed us some towels, said to let it drain, and try again. We went to dinner and when we returned we wiped out all the dirt and once again tried to fill the hot tub. Same issue. We filled the tub halfway and the water was finally running clear, but we had no way to clean the tub expect to drain it again and start the whole process over. At this point we were tired, wet (outside in December), and it would have taken another 2+ hours to drain, refill, and heat the tub. We gave up. My request for a partial refund due to this unusable amenity was not honored. I had planned a lovely and relaxing night for my family and with the hours spent trying to get the hot tub working it turned into the worst stay of our trip, and the most expensive. I would not go back.
