The self check in process was super smooth and simple. The room was quiet, spacious, and clean. We were able to park right in front of our room and walk to our car through the glass door!
The room exceeded our expectations. Prior to our arrival, we stayed at another hotel in Akureyri for two nights, then decided to stay one more night, but the other hotel had no available rooms and a worker there suggested Hotel Halond. As soon as we walked in, both my husband and I wished we found this place for all three nights because it is very spacious, clean, has a refrigerator, and a smart tv which the other hotel did not have. They also have a microwave in the common area which can be used. The only problem we had is since we booked through Expedia, I never received an email in my inbox OR available with my room and 4 digit code. I did have to turn on my phone data plan to call the hotel and someone immediately answered and gave me this information within 3 minutes. If they can figure out this one caveat, that would be amazing because I did read other reviews where this happened to them. So it must be a problem when booking through a 3rd party site. Other than this, I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone as long as you are OK with a self service establishment that does not have many amenities or a restaurant.
Stayed overnight at Hotel Halond. The outside of the property is not very impressive, but the room was nice, with ample space. The bed was comfortable. Breakfast buffet had limited items, but there was enough variety to choose from. It was a totally contactless experience. We were provided with the door codes to enter the building and our room. There was ample parking available.
