The only concern I had about the facility is that the hotel has no onsite parking. You park on the street for free up till 10 AM. Afther that you have to pay for parking. Something to be award of.

For all that is good an holy, do not stay here on a weekend. AGAIN: DO NOT STAY HERE, PLENTY OF OTHER OPTIONS IN TOWN! It doesn't matter how nice the hotel is or how good the location. You pay a premium for that anyways. In the elevator, there is a sign that says "please be quiet after 11 PM" - which is super! But then, the hotel bar/restaurant will have a DJ blasting music in their venue until 1 AM - and they know about it! So forget sleeping. At time the staff on duty can't do anything. They offered to stick in into a sub-basement room with a tiny window under ceiling in the corner (yes, you read that right), at the end of the hotel - where you could still hear the music. Obviously also not where I wanted to be. Hotels.com was of no help either. AGAIN, DO NOT STAY HERE!

Disappointing. Astonished to find out the room was in a different section of the hotel with no access to the lobby. Entrance is through a small side door. Hallway is narrow and dark. Room is small. Even with a window, we could not open it because what we saw is only 2 staircases - one staircase is fire escape staircase and the other one leads to the rooftop. Parking is on the street.

Enjoyed my stay at Keahotels which was central to a lot of dining & shopping in Akureyri. Really liked the room as well as the offered breakfast, too. My only negative would be that there seemed to be inexplainable banging & knocking around the building, which did make it quite loud, especially into the evening hours.

Extremely noisy, drunks were so loud at the hotel bar and kept us up late into the night, leaving the bar revving their engines like maniacs, worst nights sleep on our entire Iceland trip. Room was decent but shower was extremely small, if you’re a big person you would have difficulty lifting your arms. If you’re looking to party this would be your place but not a place to stay with your 12 yr old.

Nice hotel and staff, however, no parking on site and rooms on the 2nd floor cause you to have to go up and down multiple elevators and travers hallways to get to your room. Neither are convenient for traveling with luggage. Otherwise, had a nice stay.

The hotel is in a cute town with shopping and beautiful sites. The hotel was comfortable and staff were helpful. Our room was located above the outside bar patio and was very loud. It also had a lounge area next to our room on the 3rd floor. Definitely not quiet. The manager did relocate us on the second night to a quieter room.

Central location and lovely hotel
Location of this hotel is perfect. You can to anything you need to on foot so easily. Staff were really helpful in directing us to free parking. But you can pull up right to the hotel to load up or unload which is super handy. Room was lovely. We had a terrace facing the water with our room. The terraces are not very private from the other rooms that also have them but not an issue. Bathroom let the room down. The shower cubicle was tiny even though there is clearly space for a larger one. Bar area is lovely with large outdoor terrace. There were seating areas on the landings of each floor which is a nice touch. Breakfast was extremely disappointing. Seemingly lots of options but everything just not very nice. Heard lots of people around us comment on this. Staff at reception were all super nice. Would happily stay again.
