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.
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.
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.
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!
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!
Wonderful guesthouse with great artwork and a very kind proprietor. Also: excellent bedding!
Great littl find easy to park Friendly owner
Great location in a bustling little town. Flexible with my schedule and unknown arrival time as well as allowing me to wake up and leave on my own time to get an early start to my day.
Very comfortable bed and plenty of room although bathroom a bit cramped. Nice furnishings, pleasant and helpful manager. The street is a busy one so can be noisy with traffic at peak times morning and evening as property on a hill. Also guest house is noisy as my room was on the ground floor so could hear noise from upstairs and the owners part of the house. Also the room I had was off the lobby so people coming and going made it noisy and no privacy from the street or other guests if the blinds were up. Would suggest putting the type of blinds that can go up from bottom to give privacy in this room as all the others are upstairs.
Best Property ever and owner is very courteous.
It was like staying at your grandmother‘s house and was just as welcoming. It appears to be an old single-family home that they’ve converted into private rooms. I believe I stayed and what it was once their front parlor complete with a spinet piano. Overall, it was a lovely quiet stay.
Our room was very spacious and was walkable to shops and restaurants. So long as you don’t mind the walk back up the hill. Only complaint is the water that had the sulfur smell which in turn made the room smell a bit.
Value for money in Akuyeri
Lovely place to stay for a night or two. Tiny bathroom- with the sulfur smelling hot water, pretty unbearable, but the room was lovely.
Nice place, good location.
Very helpful host. Plentiful breakfast. House cat Stella was very friendly. A nice addition to the great ambiance of the house.
Great place
Great place to stay. Room was very big and comfortable with sofas, tv and even a piano! I enjoyed my stay.
This was a great stay right in the heart of Akureyri and close to all the attractions. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean and well maintained. Great stay!
Great
The staff waited for me after I got caught up in fog on the mountain and driving a long distance. The room was eclectic as I think it was a living room. It had a piano in it and some living room furniture. Also the place doesn’t have a sign or big name letters on the building. Very tough to find but I was able to park at the Masonic temple. Thank you for stay up late and helping me.
Beautiful, clean, modern room in a quiet building. Jet tub in the bathroom.
This property is in ideal location only 5 minute walk from centre of town. Host is helpful and bed comfortable.
Nice, spacious room, good location
The room is huge and overlooks the main road in town, but there was no noticeable noise in the room. The bathroom is also huge and has separate bathtub. You can walk to the main part of town and the local public pool and park. Parking is on the street, but was easy to find.
Did not stay at this location, unable to contact staff and no one at the location for us to gain access to building. Called phone number and recording stated number was not in service. Had to stay at another local hotel.
A friendly stay
Nice rooms, friendly staff, plus with en suite rooms, this is good value (for Iceland). We've stayed here 4 times and will stay here again if the opportunity arises.
Tutto ottimo, unica pecca l’acqua ha un fortissimo odore di zolfo
Islanda tour
Soggiorno gradevole ad akurery , tutto sommato un ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo
Fínn áningarstaður
Mjög góður kostur. Húsið er gamalt og hljóðbært, en allt annað skínandi gott og verðið mjög viðunandi.
Wir haben am Abend vorher noch das Frühstück bestellt und wurden nicht enttäuscht. Der Aufenthalt wurde so bestens abgerundet.

Prýðilegur gistikostur.
Fallegt hús
Frábær staðsetning, snyrtilegt og vinalegt andrúmsloft.
Kommer igen hvis jeg er Akureyri
Fineste lille guest House. Værelset og toilet var pænt og rent. De ansatte var venlige og kan kun anbefale dette sted! Lokationen er også i gå afstand til byen
Freundlicher und netter Vermieter
Die Lage sowie das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis waren sehr gut. Abends zum Teil etwas laut in der Umgebung.
We were satisfied with everything. The owner was very kind, beautiful country. If we are going again definetly we would choose the same accomodation.
Quiet. Walking distance to town centre
Un hébergement parfait !
Grande chambre très aérée, au charme ancien et aux commodités modernes (grande télé incluse), grande salle de bain, hôte très sympathique et serviable, très bon emplacement.
Perfect hotel for backpacker
