Grótta Northern Lights - Apartment & Rooms, hotel in Akranes

Situated in Reykjavík, 5.4 km from Hallgrímskirkja Church, Grótta Northern Lights - Apartment & Rooms offers beachfront accommodation and various facilities, such as a garden.

From the location to the style and finish of the property we were blown away. The room we stayed in was comfortable for the 3 of us and the rest of the accommodation was full of friendly atmosphere despite only seeing a few faces throughout our stay.

Guesthouse Sunna, hotel in Akranes

Situated in Reykjavik’s old city centre, this family-run property is across the street from Hallgrim’s Church. It offers a communal kitchen, as well as modern and fresh rooms with wooden furnishings.

Although design and finishes were abit dated, it had everything required for a comfortable stay! A well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds! Having a secondary entrance that led to the carpark was really convenient for luggage moving.

    The hosts were wonderful and so helpful and friendly. They encouraged me to do some of the activities in town (like the Oceanside hot baths). It was an experience I might have skipped and it was just wonderful. The house is quiet and super clean and comfy. But the friendliness and helpfulness of the hosts really made it a special stay. Thank you

    Fully equipped home away from home. Heaps of room. Warm and welcoming. Info on local attractions. Friendly hosts. We were only at the start of our trip so didn't need to use the excellently appointed laundry washers and dryers. Appliances generally all very modern. The location was very quiet, no traffic or neighbour noise.

    Small guesthouse - only 2 rooms, so even though the bathroom is shared, it's clean and cozy. The owners are wonderful, very nice, polite, introduced everything well, even prepared bed and toys for the baby. There was a cozy kitchen with a basket of food for breakfast to be shared with the other room. Very quiet. The area is lovely too to walk around to the lighthouse.

    Hosts has been extremely friendly and helpful. The place is spotless, and the kitchen was very well equipped. We could also use the washing machine and drier. The guesthouse has two rooms, a double and a tween bed and a very cosy living room. We enjoyed every minute and were very sad not staying longer. It was one of the best guesthouses we saw in Iceland.

    This was a great location for a short weekend- not a bad drive from Keflavik, close to Reykjavik with much more peacefulness, access the Snaefellnes Peninsula is ideal from here. Groceries and petrol in town. The property has plenty of parking for guests, the hosts were very accommodating and let us check in a bit early. Wonderful little kitchen set up and comfortable space for two for a weekend. We appreciated the blackout shades for the midnight sun.
