Learn more about Akureyri

Beneath snow-capped mountains, this northern capital offers unexpected delights at every turn. Dip into the Forest Lagoon's geothermal waters while gazing across the fjord at winter's alpenglow. Whale watching boats depart daily from the harbour, where captains speak of humpbacks with familiar affection. The botanical garden defies its Arctic location with thousands of thriving plant species. After dark, the northern lights often perform their ethereal dance above town. Hafnarstræti's microbreweries pour craft beers with quirky names while locals debate summer's midnight sun versus winter's ski slopes at Hlíðarfjall. The Aviation Museum and Nonnahús offer cultural respite when the weather turns, though locals insist there's no bad weather, only inappropriate clothing.

Akureyri - Berjaya Iceland Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"Great location! Great layout of the room, with a true king size bed, huge window and a fabulous view of the mountain. Loved how the bathroom is split with shower on one side and the sink and toilet on the other. Two people can easily get ready at same time without being in each other’s way. Smart idea! Breakfast buffet was wonderful with so many selections. We would definitely stay there again"

Hotel Halond

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel, location is about 3-4 minutes outside Akureyri but you get a great view of the city and the mountain that inspired the logo, from the parking lot at least. The rooms are clean with about average space and comfortable beds and good blackout curtains. Breakfast is NOT included with the room rate and must be purchased beforehand, but the dining room has a microwave, fridge, and sink open to guests. Self check-in, and we didn't see any staff on site on our one-night stay but you are given contact info. Great great amenity is the warming closet, included in the room rate and lets you dry your clothes overnight! Awesome for us since it rained the entire week we were in the country. Overall nice place and worth the price."

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Akureyri

Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly time to visit Akureyri is during January, November, and December, when hotel prices are generally lower. For an enriching experience, it's recommended to stay for at least 1 to 2 days to discover the city's key landmarks, cultural sites, and natural wonders. You can enjoy activities such as whale watching, visiting cafes and museums, hiking, and sightseeing, as well as experiencing the northern lights. This timeframe provides great value for money, allowing you to explore beautiful gardens, swimming spots, and shopping opportunities while sticking to your budget.
Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals for hotels in Akureyri, you may discover the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where discounted rates could be available as your travel date approaches. Enabling email alerts or push notifications can keep you informed about flash sales and exclusive promotions, helping you save on your stay. The Smart Shopping feature within the app allows travellers to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you're the first to know if prices drop or new rooms become available for your Akureyri getaway.
Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate due to factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates might help you save on your stay in an Akureyri hotel. If you're after something a bit different, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised experience and potentially better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average.
