Top Olafsfjordur Hotel Reviews

Convenient summer house on the Nollur farm at Eyafjord

10/10 Excellent

"This place is absolutely gorgeous and the view is just stunning. It is so peaceful and quiet, but also only a 25min drive from Akureyri which had plenty of restaurants and shopping. The house was very clean and had plenty of parking. Our family of 4 stayed in this rental, and our friends and their families rented out 2 of the other houses on the property. This was perfect for us all to be together for meals but have our own places to go back to sleep at. Note that this rental does not have a hot tub, though the other houses on the property do. This was not an issue for us since we could use the hot tubs at the rentals our friends were in. The kitchen in this house was very large and had everything we needed including an oven!"

Hotel Siglunes

10/10 Excellent

"très joli hôtel propre. Le village aussi avec ses montagnes avec pics enneigés en août. Le repas était excellent : tajine marocaine, la meilleure que j’ai mangé."

Ytri Vík

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic location, quiet, clean. Hot tub was a relaxing bonus!"

Spacious, luxurious house with a lot of natural wood

10/10 Excellent

"The view from the home was fantastic! We stayed here and friends stayed in two other houses on the farm and we had an amazing time!"

The Herring House

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about our stay at The Herring House was wonderful from our greeting when we arrived until we left. The room was comfortable/spacious, the dining room with microwave/ refrigerator and the bathroom were all wonderful. An evening soak in the hot tub made the day. The property was very beautiful and It was walkable to grocery store/bakery/restaurants/brewery!"

Hotel Dalvik - Aurora Leisure

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful night here after driving a long way! Quiet, clean and a wonderful breakfast!! Minutes from the ferry to Grimsey Island!!"

Gistihúsið Hofsósi

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and comfortable. We would stay here again!"

Sigló Hotel by Keahotels

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the Siglo Hotel! It was so quaint, clean, quiet and perfectly located. Check-in was great and Filip(?) was very helpful with all of our questions. We were taking the ferry to Grimsey Island the next day and he and his coworker (Helga?) were able to print our tickets for us, which we forgot to do prior. The hotel had a great restaurant which we ended up eating at later. We wanted to eat at the bar, which was so cool, but they didn’t provide food there. I think they would get more business if they offered food options as not one person was there. We explored the town, which was steps away from the hotel and in a beautiful fjord setting with mountains all around. The hot tubs looked amazing tho we did not partake of them. We didn’t have time to dine in for breakfast the next day as we were short on time, but it looked great and we managed to snag a couple croissants as we headed out the door. Unfortunately, take out coffee is not a thing in Iceland. We would love to come back when we have more time to enjoy this lovely property!"

The Viking Country Club

8/10 Good

"The place is a little rundown not what we expected but it was ok for one night in the area. Beautiful view in the harbor. Convenient kitchen available."
