Stay in the centre of culture, education and leisure activities in North Iceland

Akureyri is an ideal choice for your stay in Iceland's second city and “capital of the north”. Hotel Akureyri is the newest addition to Icelandair Hotels. The hotel will open with 63 rooms on the June 1st 2011 and 38 the June 1st 2012.

Location

Akureyri is a great base for touring the rugged northern coastline, with idyllic Lake Mývatn an hour by car and the Hrísey Island bird sanctuary is just a short ferry ride away. Nearby are Kjarnaskógur and Vaglaskógur woodlands and top salmon, trout and sea fishing. In early summer, the sight of the sun hovering over the horizon at midnight is unforgettable.
