Viking Cottages and Apartments

What a gorgeous place with gorgeous views - geothermally heated hot tub?! Amazing! Amazing way to finish off our trip

This was the perfect stop on the ring road. We were 2 minutes from the forrest lagoon, and 5 minutes from the center of Akureyri. The home was well equipped with the BEST shower of our stay. The sky was very dark and great for star/aurora watching. We were thoroughly inpressed with the luxury of the space. Owners were very gracious and went above and beyond for our stay. This place was charming, comfortable, and convenient.

Viking properties were very great tiny homes wit a great view. Close to the town and everything you need as well. We loved it here

This place is amazing!!! Highly recommend !

Very comfortable unit. Private hot tub was a nice feature. Well appointed kitchen.

This home provided a lovely stay. Has a modern feel and is very clean. Location is very convenient too!

My wife and I stayed here for four nights and thoroughly enjoyed the place, the view of the mountains and the fjord/town of Akureyri, and the spectacular show that we got from the northern lights on one of our nights there. We saw the lights on two of the four nights, and of course, there's never a guarantee. But on the night that we had a mostly clear sky, the show was spectacular. If you visit in the winter and get lucky, it's a beautiful spot to see the lights overheard from outside both the back and front of the place. Benedikt was good when it came to answering questions by email, and we chose not to rent a car and use the local taxi company to get to and from town. That added a little expense to the stay, but it was well worth it for us. Some guests in the other units did what we did. Some rented cars. It worked very nicely either way. We strongly recommend staying here and hope you get lucky with the lights like we did.

We loved staying in our Viking Cottage. It was so nice to have a spacious place with a personal hot tub all to ourselves! The heated floors were amazing, and the bed in the loft was very comfortable. The location is just a few minutes drive from the Forest Lagoon and downtown Akureyri and about a half hour from Goðafoss waterfall. It is beautiful to look across the fjord and see the town and the mountains from the cottage. A perfect vacation getaway spot! It was our favorite place we stayed in Iceland and wished we'd stayed for more than two nights.

Spend 2 nights in this beautiful place. Very clean and huge amounts of amenities. Highly recommended!!!!!!

Excellent property, spacious and very well maintained

Our stay was fantastic! Beautiful cottage with a stunning view and a hot tub. We would definitely stay there again. Would highly recommend to anyone including families. Very family friendly.

Awesome property! Great location just outside the city, with a great view. It was very peaceful, and the hot tub was a plus.

Great location in a very cool, stylishly designed cottage. Nice touch with use of the hot tub plus an orange press with fresh oranges available to be used. Only a couple of downsides, being the fridge never got cold (not ideal for self catering) and the stove top espresso machine must have previously been burnt as no matter how much we cleaned it, it always created burnt coffee, so could do with being replaced. Would be happy to stay there again though.

Fantastic place to stay great location, everything spotless communication first class

Well designed apartment with great views and amenities like kitchen, hot tub, and washer/dryer.

Although the property was smaller than we expected it was in a great location for exploring the area, the hot tub was a lovely finishing touch. Great sound system also.

The Viking Cottages were a rare (last minute) find on our whimsical drive around the coast of Iceland and are truly fantastic. Finished to a very high standard, extremely comfortable beds, clean, tidy, great amenities including hot tub and even extra touches above what we expected (fresh oranges and orange press for juice). The only comment I would have for anyone considering staying in winter would be that a 4 wheel drive is probably needed if you’re planning to go out in the days. We left our car at the top of the hill (in the car park) on the second day as was much easier to get out from there.

Lovely apartment, comfortable warm and ideal for exploring North of the Island. Only complaints were no wardrobe space in top bedroom, and no bedside tables in either bedrooms.

Wonderful place, we look forward for our next stay!

The apartment is absolutely beautiful. It's wonderful having the hot tub on the deck. It is very well outfitted and maintained. We liked the location looking toward town rather than being in town.
