“Beautiful view over the fjord, we even saw whales from the living room of the apartment! There’s a washing machine and drier - super handy! The apartment is perfect in size, and there are some board games available as well. Would recommend to stay here.”
“The instructions were very simple and good, so we had no problems finding everything we needed. The apartment is very comfortable and has nice collection of Icelandic artworks that made us feel very welcome.
Beds were comfortable and everyone slept well.”
“It was very clean, spacious and our check in procedure was very helpful considering our delay.
Kitchen well equipped and super market in walking distance.”
“I am quite happy to give a review to the "Heidarsel" cottage across the town
of Akureyri. Me and my family of 5 came there for 4 nights, i did not have
high expectations but wow -it had a mind blowing affect!. The cottage itself
was super clean and has obviously been very well maintained. Beds were
comfy and someone must really have thought hard on how to make the most
out of the space as the cottage felt larger than it is. We were 3 grownups and
2 kids and we were quite happy not feeling overcrowded with the space.
Even though the cottage itself was really nice, the best part (by far!) was the
terrace with one of the most spectacular views that i have had! We literally
used most of our time just sitting there (in spite of the winter cold) with our coffee
looking over the town with all of its life -with ship traffic, ski resorts, mountains, etc. It was
like looking at a painting and constantly finding new details.
The surrounding of the cottage was wonderful and the kids especially loved it.
There is a very large yard surrounding the cabin where they could run around and a
small water stream passing next to the it where they enjoyed playing.
I thought that it would be negative not staying within the town of Akureyri during our stay
as it would be time consuming going back and forth for restaurants, grocery stores etc.
Fact is that it only took 10 min driving from the cottage until stepping out of the car
in the town central. -Not to forget that it took about 4 min driving to the amazing
Forest lagoon which i highly recommend!
Finally and again -and hard to put into words, the view was amazing and i have to
mention that i honestly belief that i have never heard as much beautiful bird singing
as from that terrace while being amazed by the view ! Thanks to the owner for
giving me the chance to stay with my family - We will be back!”
“Great location. Comfortable beds, unlimited geothermal heating. The washing machine was super useful to freshen up our used socks and other clothes. Self check in. Self check out late, at 12. Everything was spotless clean. Very well equipped kitchen, including an oven.”
