Great Location and nice rooms! The only issue was they didn’t make the bed when we got into the room.

Likely an odd occurrence but the buildings alarms went off about five times between the hours of midnight and 2am which lead to a restless sleep. Hotel staff were not great in communicating nor provided an answer the following morning. Otherwise a fine place and decent location.

Amazing Location, very convenient
Nice modern and clean hotel. It’s almost a suite with microwave and a fridge. Very spacious. Most of all, the location is very convenient. A few minutes walk to the church, botanical garden, and downtown. No need to drive to go to downtown.

These are converted dorm rooms for summer. They are not sound proof and they do not feel very private. The bed mattress hurt my back.

The entire hotel smelled like fish. Our bedroom was above the restaurant and for some reason they have pop music playing so loud i thought a rave was going on under me. I asked the staff to turn it down since the restaurant was empty but it didn’t help much. It was loud until 9pm and the you could hear the music from the bar until midnight. There are no amenities in the room like tv. Should be advertised as more of a hostel than a hotel. The common area with tv and pool table was nice but it closed very early.

Serviceable, Inexpensive
I ended up on the third floor of the older “boarding school side.” The hotel was serviceable and people were readily able to address my concerns. Some aspects of the hotel were a little rough around the edges: third floor walk-up room for me, tourist-bus heavy breakfast times sometimes made it hard to find a seat for breakfast, not too centrally located (big hill down to quite a few sights and run routes). None of those could be helped by the hotel, and did not factor in my ratings, but would be helpful to know. I had a few crumbs in the closet, a few hairs on the bedding, and the drinking on the sink still had a bit of cleaning solution still streaked upon it. All were able to be fixed on my own.

We stayed three nights here and it was great! I was a little hesitant given it wasn’t a full time hotel but I would absolutely recommend. Room was large and comfortable. Breakfast buffet was very good. We love Icelandic skyr and they had excellent skyr there! Make sure you go to the botanical gardens next door is you have time - they are amazing. Akureyri is a wonderful place to visit.

If you looking for basic accommodations, Hotel Edda is a good choice. Location is great. Parking is free. Sharing a bathroom isn't too bad; however, the walls are thin and noise travels quite easily.

Excellent value
Excellent value for money with an attentive reception open 24 hours for any issues. Toiletries and a kettle provided in room. Room was very clean with comfortable beds and a good shower. TV would not work but strong signal for fast wifi. Nice atmosphere with the patient young staff and makes it more positive with all the demanding tourists.

The hotel was very nice, and conveniently located a short walk from the main street in Akureyri. Our room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The hotel is also right next to the botanical garden.

A college dormitory style, building with a guesthouse-ish feel. Shared bathrooms on every floor. The property and bathrooms were clean and the bathrooms themselves were really nice. Rooms are small but clean and beds were comfortable. No kitchen to cook in, but there’s a decent restaurant on site as well snacks available. It is a great place for a cheap short term stay in the city. 5-10 minute walk from downtown Akureyri.

Felt like I was in school - hotel is also used as school dorm. Room was very specious. I missed a TV in the room. You must ask for hair dryer from front desk.

Good value for money.
Check-in was speedy for a spacious, clean family room at a hotel located in the heart of Akureyri, right next door to the Botanical gardens. Great breakfast buffet and friendly staff.
