Guest Reviews
- ebru (10/5): - Kahvaltı güzel
- Kenichiro (10/5): - 9月半ばに利用しました。 外に浴槽があって、水着を来てほとんどの時間いつでも入れて良かったです。 アイスランドの映画「RUM」に写っているトンガリ山はホテルの前の山らしいです。 岩山に挟まれた谷合に位置しており、夕方とても景色が良かったです。 朝食が非常に美味しく、スキールも食べられました。 頼んだら水筒にお湯を入れてくれました。 部屋はこじんまりとしていましたが、騒音なども無く、部屋の窓から山も見え快適でした。 共同で、トイレにシャワーが付いたバスルーム2つあります。 フェイスタオルとバスタオルが用意されており、使い終わったらバスルームのカゴに入れるシステムです。
- Annabell (10/5): - Die Lage zwischen den Bergen war unglaublich schön für einen Zwischenstopp für eine Nacht. Die Zimmer waren top ausgestattet und das Frühstück mit sehr viel Auswahl.
- Akhil (10/5): - Very cozy. Great for northern lights as the area gets very dark close to the hotel. Staff was friendly and a good breakfast.
- Jose (10/5): - Excellently run guesthouse, friendly staff, comfortable rooms, good breakfast and excellent customer service. With the costs of things in Iceland bordering ridiculous this place is a hidden gem. Excellent value for money,
- Su Wei (10/5): Cosy and lovely place - Guesthouse with nice view. Staffs are very friendly and stayed up quite late to attend to their guests past 9pm. Room is warm, clean and comfortable. Offered good buffet breakfast for free.
- Hadi (4/5): - I would not go back.
- Georgia (8/5): - Cute place to stay, was very clean, the scenery was beautiful. The negative was that all the doors were very heavy and the two beds in the double room were very narrow. We got a room with the shared bathroom, but the doors were heavy and the room wasn't very spundproof so we could hear other guests opening and closing doors and packing, and I always was worried about the noise I was making when I was opening and closing my door at night. Ultimately though, if you're a heavy sleeper, this place would be a great stay.
- James-Gerard (8/5): - The front desk receptionist was superb when we realized we would be arriving late with very helpful instructions! I really wanted to give a 5 star rating for everything, but the facility upkeep needs work; I won't mention details since they are very obvious. Also, a sign at the driveway about a block away would be helpful to direct guests to the correct driveway. Correct street sign, but wrong entrance. Great breakfast!
- Ann-Julie (10/5): - It was a great stay. The staff was nice, the dinner was good and the room was clean.
- Alison (10/5): - Bed was so comfortable loved the hot tub
- Rebekah (10/5): - Very sweet spot
- Anagh (10/5): - We were extremely satisfied with our stay here. This guesthouse had flexible check-in, a spacious and welcoming room, cozy beds, and a nice clean bathroom. We were also provided breakfast the next morning which is always a wonderful touch. All in all, this place is well worth the stay (and conveniently located near Akureyri on the ring road)
- Tammy (2/5): - They obviously know that they have an issue with people finding their location so they give you the coordinates. We first went to a location in the city-not it. Then drove through the mountain fog for an hour to the location where the coordinates took us. A farm I. The middle of nowhere- also not it. We never found it. They really need to provide specific directions to the facility (if it actually exists)- completely disappointed and angry as alternatives weren’t available
- Joshua (10/5): Cute and Friendly hotel - Very nice and cute hotel stay just outside of Akureyri and had plenty of space, blackout shades were great as well.
- Olav Andreas (8/5): Anbefales - Usentralt men sentralt. Kjempeservice, hjemmekoselig og pent sted. Ligger midt i ingenmannsland men perfekt for turer, stopp langs veien og er stille rolig og komfortabelt. Meget god og enkel frokost.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Beautiful Valley - This is a gorgeous spot to stay. I loved the the hot tub, and our room was quite comfortable. There was limited options for dinner for us, as the vegetarian option wasn't available, but they were great to make something up for us. Would recommend this place.
- Mohammed (10/5): - Good
- Vibha (10/5): - We loved this place. The property manager Cuba was very kind and helpful. We were fortunate to see the northern lights during our stay here.
- Xavier (8/5): - Bel environnement
- Faheem (8/5): - Our stay at Engimýri was comfortable. The food in the restaurant was also good. We also appreciate the good service at the reception.
- Lynn M (10/5): - Really nice breakfast.
- Sneha (10/5): - Well maintained, clean property. Surrounded by mountains, great location, plenty of parking available. Friendly staff
- Jane (4/5): - Nothing like
- Liping (10/5): - Quite area with beautiful surroundings and nice atmosphere, hot tub, clean, nice breakfast.
- Yun (10/5): - They provided a clear instruction in advance how to check in if we arrived out of their regular check-in hours. The motel is right off the route 1, very convenient to get to. The staff was friendly, although the restaurant was closed when we arrived, she did take extra effort to make a sandwich for my son. I really appreciate that because otherwise I need to drive ~20 minutes one-way to the town to get food around 10pm. It has a hot tub which may help travelers relax a little bit after a long day trip. Breakfast was included so we can hit the road in the morning without worrying to find a place to eat.
- Drashti (10/5): - We stayed at this guest house for one night just recently. From being greeted cordially as we entered to making sure we are good to go as we left the next morning, everything about this place was just too good to be true. We arrived after a long, tiring day of hiking, driving and just generally being out and about all day, and the sweet lady at the front offered to heat up their hot tub for us to relax. At that point, I didn't even realize our stay included the hot tub, until she told us we also had breakfast as part of our reservation - 20 more mins of sleep as we didn't have to prepare for anything to eat early next day! The hot tub is essentially outdoors but in a covered space which makes you feel less cold. Breakfast next morning was also great, with vegan brownies as a surprise! All in all, SO much better than so many other hotels we stayed in that charge 3.000ISK per person for breakfast let alone the room charges for their small size! Thank you for making us feel at home!
- Akash (4/5): - Room had dog smells. Cramped rooms. Poor breakfast.
- mark (10/5): - Staff were very friendly and helpful with a delicious breakfast
- BRIAN (10/5): - Fabulous views wonderful food awesome staff
- Axel (10/5): - Good. Breakfast and dinner
- Bijal (10/5): - What a lovely little guesthouse! Just off the main road but you would not know it. Friendly staff and charming building.
- DAVID (10/5): - La estancia estuvo genial, nos sentimos muy cómodos. Facilidades en un late check in.
- Grace (10/5): - amazing staff, kind , helpful, will recommend to others.
- Seonghun (10/5): - 아이슬란드에서 유일하게 묵었던 개인 욕실 숙소. 숙소는 굉장히 멋지고, 너무나도 편안했습니다. 멋진 조식까지 제공됩니다. 강력히 추천!
- Savanna (10/5): - Scenery was absolutely gorgeous and the room was perfect
- Verified traveler (4/5): Negativa - Camera male organizzata (letto senza testata vicino al termosifone Uno dei letto presentava una diga rotta Scarsa pulizia (alle ore 8.00 i bagni in comune ancora non erano stati puliti è sprovvisto di carta igienica)
- Saeed (8/5): - Nice and clean guesthouse.
- Hua (10/5): - Very friendly and helpful host, nice place to stay
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Located in a nice little valley, close to Akureyri. The rooms are spacious which is great if you have some luggage and don’t want to feel cramped. There is a sink in the room so you don’t have to go to the main bathroom to brush your teeth which keeps the wait to use the bathroom low. Also, breakfast was included :)
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Ein einfaches uns gutes Hotel.. Besonders das Personal war sehr freundlich.. Für ein Trinkgeld würden unsere Anziehsachen gewaschen.. Als Nachtsnack kann ich nur die guten Pommes mit Cocktailsoße empfehlen
- Derya (10/5): Super - Sehr nettes Personal. Zimmer und Frühstück haben die Erwartungen erfüllt. Gerne wieder!
- Helga (10/5): - Þap er mjög gott að vera á Engimýri. Hreynt og gott og vinalegt starfsfólk. Morgunmaturinn var góður og herbergið og rúmin fín.
- Pete (10/5): - Nice clean property with friendly and helpful staff. Complimentary breakfast was very good. On sight restaurant was very good really enjoyed all the food we had. location is close to the road1 so convenient but also nice and rural with dramatic mountain views around.
- Sigrún (10/5): Sumarfrí - Lítið og notalegt gistiheimili á einni hæð, Hugguleg aðkoma, gott aðgengi, herbergið rúmgott og mjög vel þrifið. Sóttvörnum vel sinnt, spritt á herbergi, veitingasal, gestamóttöku. Fámennt en gott starfsfólk. Einfaldur matseðill en góður matur, sérstaklega heimasúrsað grænmeti, morgunverðurinn fínn líka og frábært útsýni þar sem Hraundrangar í Öxnadal blasa við. Mæli hiklaust með þessum stað og takk fyrir okkur:)
- Borja (10/5): Very nice room - Nice and clean room, with private bathroom. The receptionist was extremely nice !
- Emilia (10/5): - Precioso lugar con vistas expectaculares y desayuno excelente
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Das Frühstück war bei uns inklusive und wir haben es sehr genossen. Vor allem den guten selbstgemachten Frischkäse und die Marmeladen. Die Begrüßung und Verabschiedung war sehr freundlich und herzlich.
- Eric (10/5): - This was a super welcoming guesthouse. Beautiful location and a comforting homely feeling in both the room and the breakfast area.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Frábær staður og góð þjónusta.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great stay, clean room and very nice staff!
- Lone (10/5): - Bestilte værelser meget sent og ankom efter check ind kl 22, uden problemer. Blev mødt af det sødeste personale som ventede på os med dejlig varm te. Dejlig morgenbuffet med varieret udvalg. Kan klart anbefales som overnatning på turen. Meget gæstfri.
- Busgeeth (2/5): Could have been much better - Well place with the views is magnificent. No lunch no dinner no fridge for guests. Which means you need to eat in the centre of Akureyri. Cannot even have a cold beer on the beautiful veranda. A small open kitchen for guests is necessary if you dont serve lunch and dinner. Rooms are not soundproof. I could hear loud noises next door 12 in the night. My opinion and my experience. I have been in guest houses in centre of Akureyri they all had toilets in the rooms with shower and accessible kitchen for guests.
