The location is amazing and the surroundings are breathtaking. We loooved our beautiful cottage and it made our last night in Iceland very special. The bed was so comfy and the bathroom was clean. It was very warm inside with the heating. The tiny kitchen was just what we needed to prepare some quick meals. We would love to spend at least two nights in the area next time and explore Akranes.

The staff were amazing, especially Dinko who went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. The room was spatious and clean and the spa was a great way to rest. Breakfast was varied and tasty. We even saw Aurora from our window.

We only stayed one night, but we really liked how equipped our room was. The place is also quite away from other towns, so perfect to spot the aurora if you have clear sky. They also have hot tub and sauna but we didn't use it. You also have possibility to have dinner or breakfast since the kitchen in our room was well equipped we didn't eat in the restaurant.

Friendly, helpful and accommodating staff. I had to shorten my original two-night stay to one. The helpful staff offered me a room upgrade for the cancelled night and a credit for one night for future accommodation. Absolutely great customer service, which you don't find everywhere. The hotel has a great location and an excellent breakfast. Everything is clean and beautiful.

Akranes is a pleasant community within east driving distance to Reykjavik. Accommodations there are less expensive compared to the surrounding are but also are not as updated. There was one good sit-down restaurant in the town. The public swimming pool was nice and there a public geothermal baths on the beach there. When the fish factory opens, whole portions of the town stink of fish. If you are looking for more affordable accommodation for a one night stop, this town is a good option, but there is not much to see and do in the town itself.

Akranes is one of our favorite day trips from Reykjavík.

Akranes is one of our favorite day trips from Reykjavík. We usually take the bus out and back, although I could see it being a great longer stop for non-locals too. It is much quieter with far less tourist traffic than other towns around Iceland. The lighthouse is a delight. It is open to the public most days and has amazing acoustics. The lighthouse keeper invites folks to sing or play instruments and will happily accommodate musicians who want to record there! There are also wonderful beaches and a public pool by the ocean. The museum is also lovely. We walk the town for the trip, but I could see a car being useful as well.

The description should be more accurate; I thought I was renting a chalet with a separate bedroom as shown in the photos, but I only rented a studio apartment, which was a bit small for three adults. So, we were disappointed.

The town of Akranes was nice, there are 2 larger supermarkets in the town, so it was ideal for us, who lived in the solitude of the Móar Cottage accommodation, we saw the northern lights 2 nights in a row, it was an incredible experience and I highly recommend this accommodation. Otherwise, in the town of Akranes, the lighthouse didn't appeal to me much, it simply didn't enchant me at all.

It's a town about 50 km from Reykjavik, ideal if you don't want to pay the exorbitant prices of the capital. The town is practically deserted, but it has a supermarket where you can buy what you need.

This is a small town with absolutely nothing to do and absolutely no atmosphere. There's one bar in a hotel, and that's it. Even the so-called Irish pub is gone. The town is known for its cement factory, which is also very centrally located. This is definitely not a place to stay in beautiful Iceland.

This is a wonderful place to explore the area of Akranes. About 20 minutes off the city, settled in a beautiful landscape, the house is very spacious, very comfortable and particularly well equipped. We stayed there with our two kids and the house was more than enough. The outside hot bath is also a wonderful place to relax at the end of a good day. Although we didn't meet them in person the hosts were very friendly and responsive to any question we had.

"The heartwarming Home" I can't find a better adjective to describe it. It's full of heartwarming/cleanliness and completeness. Unlike traditional hotels/B&Bs. The owner is friendly and cordial, and explanations/tours are complete. Parking spot just in front of the house.
