Besides our room covered in dust, this was a great location (with free easy parking) that allowed us to enjoy the city and walk around.

I love the room I stay in! I wish i could have stay for more than one night. The owner was very Friendly and helpful. He even took the time to print out instructions to my car rental agency in Reykjavik!

8/10 Very good

Old large house about three blocks Above restaurants, so make sure you can walk upgrade, no problem for us. Small room. Gentleman in charge very helpful. Very nice walking town, great botanical garden and old town area. Glad we spent 2 nights here.
Terry H., 2-night trip

6/10 Good

I was unable to stay at this hotel. Staff messaged me and said I was double booked. Staff said to go to another hotel and they would book a room. I was put up at another hotel which worked out. Unfortunately I am unable to confirm the reviews of this one since I never got a chance to stay there. Staff person was helpful even though changing plans and staying somewhere with worse reviews and a more expensive breakfast was unfortunate.

Excellent !

Excellent séjour, extrême gentillesse de l’hôte, surclassement pour la 2ème nuit. (Séjour de 2 nuits séparées) Proche du centre ville et du port. Très calme. Je reviendrai !

Sjarmerende plass

Flott beliggenhet. Kun en bratt bakke ned til sentrum. Sjarmerende plass og hyggelig og hjelpsom vert. Alltid kaffe og te i resepsjon. Frokost plassen må oppleves. Et kjøkken i pastellfarger, dekket til to, utrolig koselig. Frokosten inneholdt alt du trenger.

Literie très confortable. Seul bémol, il n’y a pas de cuisine pour préparer les repas. Nous sommes donc obligé de manger à l’extérieur.

Góður gististaður

Prýðilegur kostur á mjög sanngjörnu verði. Vingjarnlegt starfsfólk, snyrtileg herbergi, góð staðsetning.

Nice location that close to attractions in the city. And the room is neat and looks comfortable! Also the staff served me with gentle and patient manner.

Tutto ottimo, unica pecca l’acqua ha un fortissimo odore di zolfo
Eleonora, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My one night stay at FE Gisting Guesthouse was lovely! Just up the hill from the city center of Akureyri, it was a five minute walk to many shops, bars, historical/art interest points, and restaurants. On-street parking was easy to find, free, and safe. The home is very sweet and adorable, the office/lobby area beautifully decorated. The bedroom I stayed in was in the front of the house, but I did not encounter much noise. En suite bathroom with shower, comfortable clean linens, a small refrigerator, and a tv were in the room. Coffee and tea provided in the main room. An excellent value overall! Akureyri was a really cool little city, and the proximity, safety, and overall vibe of FE Gisting made it one of my favorite guesthouses in Iceland. (Also there is a public pool across the street, which I sadly did not experience! But next time!!)

This is a charming guesthouse with just the right amenities—great shower, coffee in the morning. The guest house is across the street and steps from the city bath house and also walking distance from the shops downtown.

Very clean and warm. Mr. Gisting goes beyond the call of duty to please guests. Good location, not far from downtown. Comfortable. Quiet. Mr. Gisting knows the area and was extremely helpful during my visit. Great conversations. Thank you! Takk!

Fínn áningarstaður

Mjög góður kostur. Húsið er gamalt og hljóðbært, en allt annað skínandi gott og verðið mjög viðunandi.
