Enjoyed Akureyri, the hotel was incredibly beautiful and lovely close to the city center. The staff were nice and knew how to help. They gave me triple room with board games and super clean beds, as example. The breakfast was tasty and enjoyable, had variety of food. Stunning location right by the various bars and the river and walking trails, I felt safe. I ate at the in-house restaurant near the venue. You guys made my stay fantastic!
