Hotel Akureyri Dynheimar

Hotel Akureyri Dynheimar is a unique hotel oozing character and charm in Akureyri’s city center. Travelers looking for something different will love the cozy rooms and superb dining experience at this micro hotel and urban farm.

Location & Nearby

Hotel Akureyri Dynheimar boasts an excellent central location. It’s just one street behind the Eyjafjordur coastline, and some rooms have fjord views. Guests will find all the amenities they need within a short walking distance, including several restaurants, cafes, and bars.

Next door is the hotel’s urban farm, growing local produce through indoor hydroponics. Sustainability is at the heart of this system, which reuses hotel waste to produce tasty and healthy food year-round.

Just over 200 feet (68 meters) along the road, guests won’t want to miss a fine dining experience at North, the hotel’s restaurant. It opened in August 2022, transforming fresh, raw ingredients from Iceland’s north into irresistible meals. North’s founding chef, Gunnar Karl Gislason, was also behind Dill, Iceland’s first Michelin Star restaurant.

The Akureyri Botanical Garden is 0.7 miles (1.2 kilometers) from the hotel, featuring thousands of plants and a cafe. Afterward, visit one of the city’s many museums, such as the Akureyri Art Museum or the Motorcycle Museum of Iceland.

Around 929 yards (850) meters from Hotel Akureyri Dynheimar, the Akureyri public swimming pool is an excellent place to enjoy some leisure time. Soak in the warm geothermal water in a hot tub, swim a few laps, and have fun on the waterslides.

Facilities & Amenities

Hotel Akureyri has four buildings in central Akureyri, each historically and culturally significant in some way. Hotel Akureyri Dynheimar’s building was Iceland’s first movie theater, then a choir clubhouse, followed by a youth hang-out spot.

Today it’s a modern hotel with two room types, each with a flatscreen television, private shower, toilet, and complimentary toiletries. The double rooms offer guests the chance to stay in a tiny room packed with welcoming home comforts for a good night’s sleep.

Those looking for something a little bigger yet following a similar theme can book a superior double room. The room’s thoughtfully designed space features a luxury bed, a guitar, and a personal turntable and record collection for the ultimate ambiance.

Guests will appreciate the attention to detail in the rooms, from practical touches such as a kettle and somewhere to sit to the stylish design.

The hotel offers breakfast each morning in the restaurant for an extra cost.
