Amazing location. Line a dream place. Google map shows it on left side of the access road while it's on right side. Follow the instructions by host not Google. Glass balcony room is out of this world with heating in it. Very pretty and climbable hill at the back. Nice hot tub. Neighbour house keeps lights on all night that interferes with Northern lights viewing. This is the only negative point

Akranes is a pleasant community within east driving distance...

Akranes is a pleasant community within east driving distance to Reykjavik. Accommodations there are less expensive compared to the surrounding are but also are not as updated. There was one good sit-down restaurant in the town. The public swimming pool was nice and there a public geothermal baths on the beach there. When the fish factory opens, whole portions of the town stink of fish. If you are looking for more affordable accommodation for a one night stop, this town is a good option, but there is not much to see and do in the town itself.

Akranes is one of our favorite day trips from Reykjavík.

Akranes is one of our favorite day trips from Reykjavík. We usually take the bus out and back, although I could see it being a great longer stop for non-locals too. It is much quieter with far less tourist traffic than other towns around Iceland. The lighthouse is a delight. It is open to the public most days and has amazing acoustics. The lighthouse keeper invites folks to sing or play instruments and will happily accommodate musicians who want to record there! There are also wonderful beaches and a public pool by the ocean. The museum is also lovely. We walk the town for the trip, but I could see a car being useful as well.

The description should be more accurate; I thought I was renting a chalet with a separate bedroom as shown in the photos, but I only rented a studio apartment, which was a bit small for three adults. So, we were disappointed.

The town of Akranes was nice, there are 2 larger supermarkets in the town, so it was ideal for us, who lived in the solitude of the Móar Cottage accommodation, we saw the northern lights 2 nights in a row, it was an incredible experience and I highly recommend this accommodation. Otherwise, in the town of Akranes, the lighthouse didn't appeal to me much, it simply didn't enchant me at all.

It's a town about 50 km from Reykjavik, ideal if you don't want to pay the exorbitant prices of the capital. The town is practically deserted, but it has a supermarket where you can buy what you need.

This is a small town with absolutely nothing to do and absolutely no atmosphere. There's one bar in a hotel, and that's it. Even the so-called Irish pub is gone. The town is known for its cement factory, which is also very centrally located. This is definitely not a place to stay in beautiful Iceland.

Pros : kitchen was really well equipped, and even though there was not a breakfast included (which is totally fine by us), there was some apple and orange juices, milk, bread along with jams and butter. I also liked how the hosts greeted us ; they were warm, and kind to tell us everything we can do in Akranes (activities, restaurants, places to see, etc.) and the surroundings. Beds were comfortable, and we could do our laundry for free (which let me tell you, it was much needed after few days of hiking lol). That was a plus.

Place was comfortable and clean with and with a nice view of the local mountain and fully fulfilled my requirement of a stop over along my driving trip around Iceland. Check in was easy with just needing to walk into and head to the correct room. They also provide tea coffee and all that, there were also some of the Icelandic jumpers to buy at a reasonable price (although still way too pricey for me).
