Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    One of the best hostels in Iceland during my trip. I spent a few weeks in Japan recently and this hostel reminded me of this time. + Spacious capsules for privacy + Clean and modern facilities + Good location in city centre and close to the harbour + Terrasse on the roof + Big dining area + Area with couches to hang out + Wifi worked fine

    Totally love this place as the architecture is so modern and beautiful. Love the balcony, though we didn't get a chance to sit outside as is too chilling. The view is amazing and spectacular. Villa is clean and is a bonus to have a room with bunk bed instead of sofa bed. Easy drive to main town and near forest lagoon. So far one of the cheapest apartment I have stayed in Iceland. Totally value for money.My family of 4 totally enjoy our stay here.

    Third time staying here.The best hostel I’ve ever stayed in. It’s like an extension of the owners home. All the fixtures & fittings are quality & carefully chosen as if it’s their home. I’m over 6 foot & I find the pods comfortable & private & always get a good nights sleep. It’s a great central location & best value in Akureyri.

    This was hands down the best value for dollar of every place we stayed in Iceland (we stayed at 8 places in total). It was clean, modern, safe, great location, ... If we could have stayed longer we would have.

    The cleaning inside was impeccable. The rooms and bathroom are very comfortable. What I more like is the plugs next to the bed and every bed, even the upper bunk beds, have a little table. Also it's very safe and every bed has a locker for luggage. When I arrived there wasn't any staff working so I can not judge.

    All the spaces are clean and people very kind! We spent only one night here. It was our first experience in a capsule. It was amazing! The most cheap hostel we find in Iceland. I really suggest it.
