Wir hatten ein Zweibettzimmer gebucht, aber leider keines bekommen. Als wir dies angesprochen haben, wurde uns angeboten, dass wir am Abendbüffet kostenlos teilehmen dürften. Dies haben wir dann auch gemacht und das Büffet sehr genossen.Das Zimmer hatte jedoch auch bis auf das Bett noch den Mangel, dass es keine Schränke oder ähnliches gab. Nur die eine oder andere Ablagemöglichkeit. Es hat ausgereicht für eine Nacht, aber länger wäre nicht möglich gewesen.Das Gemeinschaftsbad kann ich sehr loben. Es war in sehr gutem Zustand und die Duschkabinen waren großräumig und nett bestückt.Interessant war, dass wir sehr viele Schüler / Studenten gesehen haben, die möglicherweise während der Sommerferien dort ausgeholfen haben.Also trotz falschem Zimmer war die Unterkunft gut, da vor allem der Preis stimmte!

Hôtel bien placé à moins de 10 min à pieds du centre ville, toilettes et douches communes propres, chambres spacieuses avec petit évier ce qui est très pratique et petit déjeuner copieux avec beaucoup de choix. Je recommande !

Studentato che in estate si trasforma in hotel. Camere ampie e pulite. Gli studenti lavorano come camerieri e alla reception bravi! Colazione a buffet ricca. La struttura è molto grande e se ci sono molti ospiti a colazione trovi un po di caos. Niente di eccezionale, ma da tenere presente.

Noche 8 de nuestra luna de miel.Esta es otra residencia estudiantil convertida en verano en Hotel. La habitación era amplia, ya que nos tocó una esquina del edificio. Muy luminosa y limpia. No le damos 5 estrellas porque nos tocó en un tercer piso sin ascensor y era un poco cansino tener que subir y bajar para cualquier cosa. Bien ubicado y personal muy atento (becarios).

Zusammenfassung: Substanz des Hotels gut, Servcie unterierdisch.Das Konzept mit den jungen Leuten, die alleine ein Hotel führen, geht hier nicht auf.Ankunft war etwas früh und early checkin nicht möglich (13.00). Soweit ok, aber wenn dass Zimmer dann erst 30 Minuten nach Checkin fertig ist (15.30), schlechter start.Weiter geht es mit dem Zimmer. Eigentlich grundsolide, aber- Vormieter hat seine Haare im Bad gelassen- Tv hatte 2 Sender, 1 Stanbild mit Werbung und 1 Sender mit Bildqualität, die in den 90er nock ok war. Wenn TV bitte richtig und sonst weg.- Interessiert kein Mensch, aber symptomatisch für ganzes Erlebnis, Uhr des Telefons war 1h zu spät. (würde mir sonst nie auffallen)- Wasserkocher mit allem ausser Tassen...Das schlimmste war bei uns (Zimmer 342), der Aufenthaltsraum (welchen ich anfangs ziemlich cool fandeinen Stock tiefer. Um 23.45 fanden einige kreative Leute, dass eine Session auf dem Piano noch toll wäre. Dem Personal kam nicht in den Sinn, für Ruhe zu sorgen.Bin kein Spiesser, aber an dem Tag einfach nicht fit und wollte etwas Ruhe...Nächstes Mal gehen wir für das Geld was wirklich Gutes Essen, hauen uns in den Bars zu und pennen im Auto. 😉Dem Hotel wären 4-5 erfahrene Berufsleute dienlich, welche den sonst netten jungen Menschen klare Anweisungen geben würden.

The second we got here, the reception took 30 minutes to check us in, and also didn’t help us do so when we got there, but ran off to do something else, and then came back. When we got to our rooms, it was not clean, there were glasses of water still there by the window, and flies EVERYWHERE. It makes me question their cleanliness, and also the bathrooms are not very clean at all!

Schön große Zimmer, sehr sauber, nette Angestellten. Leider war beim Buffet am Abend alles bis auf die Suppe kalt. Das Gratin, die Kartoffeln, das Gemüse, der Fisch, das Huhn und die Nudeln. Geschmacklich sehr gut aber kalt. Da gibt es noch großen Verbesserungsbedarf.

Passez votre chemin.Malheureusement, lun des pires hôtels où nous ayons séjourné en Islande. Lhôtel est en 2 parties. A gauche un ancien bâtiment et à droite un nouveau bâtiment. Nous nous avions une chambre à gauche.Il ny a pas dascenseur, il faut donc traîner ses bagages jusquau deuxième étage. WC et SDB communs.La salle commune est bien équipée. Billard, table de ping pong, piano et canapé.Le personnel est froid.

This hotel is a combination of hostel type rooms and full hotel rooms. Hotel rooms have bathrooms. Hostel rooms share bathrooms and showers. Shared bathrooms and showers are all private units in a common area. You shower in private. Rooms and bathrooms are all very clean. Breakfast buffet has wide variety of bread, meat, cereals and fresh fruits. Right next to Botanical garden and hospital

A good use of space in the summer season. These are dorm rooms during the school year and everything was very clean. Close to main town. Breakfast spread was great in the morning. Offers to do your laundry for a very inexpensive price. Wifi worked well, no complaints. Very large rooms.

When I booked this hotel, I read not very good things for it and I was afraid. But in reality everything was good! The romm was clean, spacious, elegant, with sea- view. The staf was original, and if you wanted something they did it. The only strange thing is that the room is without tv.

Unterirdisch! Leider eines der schlechtesten Hotels, in denen wir in Island übernachtet haben. Das Hotel besteht aus einem Alt- und einem Neubau, wir hatten ein Doppelzimmer im Altbau. Dort gibt es keinen Aufzug, so dass man sein Gepäck bis in den dritten Stock schleppen muss. Die Vorhänge im Zimmer verdunkeln nur ganz schlecht und die Einrichtung ist eher Jugendherberge als 3-Sterne. Das Badezimmer ist winzig und optisch auf dem Stand der 70er Jahre. Einen Stern gibt es für das gute Frühstücksbuffet und einen für die freundlichen Mitarbeiter.

Ein nicht befriedigendes Hotel.Das Haus hat keinen Fahrstuhl. Mit Gepäck ist das problematisch, zumal die zunächst angebotene Hilfe für das Gepäck ausblieb.Das Zimmer bot unzureichend Möglichkeit die Koffer (2abzulegen und zu öffnen.Das Etagenbad (3 Duschen, 2 Toiletten pro Flurwar sauber und modern mit unisex, doch blieben gebrauchte Handtücher im überfüllten Eimer einfach liege und auf den Toiletten ging das Klopapapier aus. Ärgerlich!Die Lage ist direkt neben dem hübschen Botanischen Garten aber doch ein Stück weg vom (kleineStadtzentrum.Am schlimmsten aber war die Organisation des Frühstücks. Man reihte sich in einem schlauchartigem Raum ein, in eine ca 30 m lange Schlang, um das Frühstücksbüffee zu erreichen. Dort war das Angebot aber gut.Leider wurden die Tische nicht im nötigen Tempo neu eingedeckt. Das scheinbar zum großen Teil ungelernte Personal schien völlig hilflos und überfordert mit dem Ansturm von Gästen. Keine ordnende Hand war am Ort. Sehr schlecht!

We had room with shared bathroom. I think price / quality is far from good. That room should cost 60-80 euros less. It’s really noisy, very weak sound insulation. Woke up 1-2 am when partygoers come back, smashing doors, loud noises, some bell ringed two times during the night (probably school facilities). Breakfast room super crowded before 8. Mediocre quality. No warm dishes except make your own waffle.

We stayed in two Edda Hotels: This one and the one in Egilstadir. I liked the other one more. It just felt a bit "cold" nothing special but OK to spend the night. It was very crowdy at the breakfast buffet though. That was kinda annoying.

All ok. Good location, large parking, spacious rooms, fine breakfast. The only disadvantage is the entrance. As probably most of tourists discovered, G Maps shows the hotel at the other side where is no entrance :).This is rather G Maps problem not Hotel Edda, will you agree? ;)

Not a fan of the fact that the hotel doesn’t have any elevators. We got a room on the 3rd floor and it wasn’t pleasant to carry everything up ourselves. The rooms are quite poorly decorated - no design whatsoever. The washrooms/shower are for the floor but are pretty clean.

The staff were very responsive to our concerns; we first got a room in which none of our devices would ever connect to wifi, and they promptly moved us to a different one that was much better. That was very kind of them. The rooms were clean, the restaurant is quite good. The shared washrooms seemed a little dated and could do with some upgrading; some showers had very poor water pressure, and others were cold until you were almost done showering.

Travelling as a group meant logistics can be challenging but checking in and out of Hotel Edda was easy. THe rooms were spacious, albeit spartan but we dont need much. Rooms warm, bedding comfortable, if only the blinds would block out the 24 hour daylight that wouldve been nice.The bathrooms are at the end of the hall and are multi sex so take that into account if youre a little unsure. THey are spacious and again, pretty basic but does the job.Staff are extremely friendly. Breakfast was brilliant with everything you could possibly want.Location is easy into Akureyri with a ten minute walk downhill amongst the shops and the waterways.Being on the top of the hill you do get some lovely views of Akureyri. Would highly recommend

Very large and crowded. It seems that the rooms serve as students housing some time during the year - so the inner furniture setup is a bit strange for a hotel. There is no soap or shampoo in the rooms.

The hotel is used as a college dormatory during the school year. During the summer it serves as a hotel. So, the room is basically a dorm facility, e.g. 2 twin beds, closets, desks, desk chairs, no sofa, lounge chair, etc. The room was clean and functional. The breakfast buffet was good with a variety of food choices. The dinner buffet was superb-ranks equal to many and better than most. A hair dryer was available to be borrowed from the front desk, but no wash cloths were available. The towels were thin-not plush. The location is convenient for a walk into the heart of town. In summary the facility was clean with basic service and good food, but dont arrive expecting luxurious accommodations.

very clean and comfortable, fast Wi-Fi, and close to downtown. the man at the desk was pleasant enough but gave us very little information about the hotel or area when we checked in so it was a surprise to us that we were in rooms with communal bathrooms. if we had known we may have slept in the hostel instead at a third of the cost.
