This hotel offers comfortable stay with double and triple rooms in the center of Akureyri. Breakfast was very good with all you could expect from this class of hotels. Location is perfect for exploring Akureyri in particular and Iceland's north in general. There are some good restaurants around.

Our rooms were not close to each other as we requested, but still on the same floor. Being in the center of Akureyri the hotel is a bit pricey, but not much different than other similar hotels in the area.

Great location. Make sure your booking includes breakfast. Not sure why our reservation didn't include breakfast.. Local Sites: We had one vehicle for 4 people. Three went zipling. If you can DO THIS, it was great fun. One went horseback riding, who dropped the rest of us at the zipline building. Those of us who ziplined took free public bus back into town, for the rider to catch up with us after.

Confirm breakfast is included in the room charge. Others had it, but I'd used booking.com, and not sure if that was why it wasn't included in my reservation. Just verify to cover yourself. Any breakfast included is just easier on the trip.

The food at breakfast was tasty and hot. We booked last minute due to other accommodations were not satisfactory. The staff was attentive and friendly. They were able to accommodate our pull out for the 3rd guest in the room.

While i understand it parking was a hassle.

Hotel KEA exceeded my expectations from the friendly hotel and cleaning staff to the breakfast room and bar. There was opportunity to sit outside ,right in the centre of town, with the drink or food of one's choice and the view of the Akureyri Church on the rise above the hotel was exhilarating. I would definitely stay here again.

The ultra dark doors and fixtures in the bedroom produced a depressing atmosphere and the electrical lighting was inadequate.

This hotel has it all: location - right at the edge of the best part of downtown, at the foot of the steps leading up to Akureyri’s famous and beautiful church - and comfort, with large modern rooms, big breakfast buffet, excellent service, even a gym.

You would have to be very picky and unreasonable to find anything to complain about.

Great location in the center of the city Comfortable, spacious bedroom Continental breakfast including fresh scrambled eggs, bacon Great bathroom products provided (Molton Brown brand)

Bathroom while practical could do with a modern upgrade Street parking was available in front of the hotel when we arrived however the street can be quite busy normally

Fantastic location, right in/on their downtown and very easy to spot if you are driving. My room had a view of the harbor. The breakfast is a little limited but it gets the job done. The staff are very helpful.

The twin beds are smaller than their American counterparts. The mattresses are adequate: you'll recover from the previous day but not necessarily fully rejuvenated. There is only 1 elevator which can be a bit of an issue when it gets busy.

The location is prime in Akureyri, right by the main street and near the concert hall and the famous church steps.

Breakfast options are standard and resemble what you might find at a three-star hotel. Please note that if you want anything beyond the complimentary filtered coffee, there will be an additional charge for those items.

Breakfast was not included, but easy enough to add on. Very pleasant breakfast room and nice selection of food. Location was perfect - right in the middle of town and easy walking to lovely shops and the waterfront.

The company we booked with did not forward our request for twin beds to the hotel. The accommodating staff immediately offered to rectify the ommission.

Our double room was a very good size. The single room bedroom was good size but the bathroom was tight. Floor layout of the hotel is a bit confusing. Pleasant breakfast and some good restaurants nearby. In the centre of Akureyri.

Be aware car parking is on street and payable after 10am??
