Icelandair Hotel Akureyri opened in 2011 with 63 brand new rooms in modern style that are designed for your optimum comfort.
In-room facilities include a TV, telephone and coffee/tea making facilities. Each room has bathroom facilities, including a shower and a hairdryer. WIFI available (a fee will be charged).
In June 2012 38 rooms will be added to the hotel. A ski storage room is available for our winter guests and there will be a special entrance to this room on the ground floor.
The hotel is located at Thingvallastraeti 23, which is beside the town's main camping site, just across the street to the local outdoor swimming pool and a 18-hole golf course minutes away.
Akureyri is the second largest urban area in Iceland, after the capital area of Reykjavk, with a population of about 17200. Akureyri is the centre of trade and services in northern Iceland. It is also a town of culture and education, building on a firm foundation. Akureyri is a great base for touring the rugged northern coastline, with idyllic Lake Mvatn an hour by car and the Hrisey Island bird sanctuary is just a short ferry ride away. Nearby are Kjarnaskogur and Vaglaskogur woodlands and top salmon, trout and sea fishing. In early summer, the sight of the sun hovering over the horizon at midnight is unforgettable.
