The room we had was small and right at the front of the house next to the front door. The only window that could be opened for air circulation was right where people were entering and exiting the property. Free parking at the property was not included despite the Expedia description. It is also referred to as a bed and breakfast, but breakfast is an additional fee we were not able to purchase upon arrival because it needed to be done in advance. The room was clean and well located in the city near the main part.

I basically had a one bedroom. The house and place itself is nice. I didn't explore much of the house, but it was well decorated and quite nice to look at. My roomt was your typical bedroom with a small bathroom (enough room where it works). There was one of those heaters that was useful for drying your clothes. A plus when travelling through Iceland. I had a bike with me and the staff was helpful in finding a safe spot to lock it up. You're in a good spot, close to the downtown shopping and dining area, but far enough where it is quiet at night. So you can still get good sleep.

This was a great place to sleep after a long day of exploring. We were lucky and got a spot right out front! Parking seemed like a bit of a challenge depending on the time.This was in walking distance to a lot of cute shops. We did not stay for breakfast but the description sounded yummy.

Place is very easy to find and minutes from everything.

The hotel is in a beautiful small town.

Lovely, friendly and polite staff/hosts. Clean and comfortable room. Quiet, good value for money, facilities all I needed.

Our host was very helpful. Helped us jump our car when we left the lights on overnight!

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.

Location is near the harbor, restaurants, and shops

Great location, easy to walk everywhere you want to explore/visit. Free street parking onsite available. Super comfortable beds with lots of space in your private room.

Excellent views of surrounding area

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.

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
