Featuring free WiFi, Guesthouse Baegisa offers accommodation 23 km outside of Akureyri. Free private parking is available on site. Home-cooked meals are available upon request.

Hof - Cultural Center and Conference Hall is 15 km from Guesthouse Baegisa, while Pollurinn is 16 km from the property. Akureyri Airport is 25 km away.

There are not enough words to describe how beautiful and special this place is. Luckily we booked the room for two nights, and I have to say this was without any doubt the best accommodation we have stayed in our trip, in Iceland, and in the World. You will sleep right in the middle of nature, surrounded by the mountains, with a wonderful view over a waterfall, and the only sound that you will hear is the cows and sheeps in the backyard. The breakfast is all homemade, we had warm, fluffy pancakes with fresh blueberries, handpicked from the owner Elisabeth, who I have to mention is a great cook. So I highly recommend booking the dinner as well, it is an unforgettable experience, very cozy and private, and you can really taste some authentic Icelandic meals, very healthy and tasty. We will definitely be back.

I stayed there with my husband and 2 years old child. The cottage is very comfortable, and the location is amazing for us, especially for my child. (He could safely "explore" the neighbors.)

Even before our arrival, the hosts sent us very helpful tips about the surroundings: places to visit, to eat, to go for a drink, etc. It was a great choice to stay in their accommodation!!

    The room was spacious, as was the bathroom, but the shower cabin was very small. The location in the city centre was great, with many restaurants and cafes nearby. The guesthouse was rather quiet, and the common room was clean.

    Great location, quiet street within walking distance of downtown and the Hof. Very lovely, with a beautifully equipped kitchen with plenty of space for food preparation. Hostess was very gracious, and obviously cares about guest experience.

    Beautiful guesthouse on a farm close to the ring road, very clean, cozy rooms with a charming, personal decor. Elisabeth was an extraordinary, very welcoming hostess, and her dishes were wonderful. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious with many homemade ingredients (e.g. bread, jam, etc.). It was definitely the best and most convivial accommodation during our stay in Iceland.

    Don’t let the outside fool you. I was sceptical when I saw the outside of the building, and no sign telling this was the guesthouse. But inside: so clean, nice and every guest was considerate and quiet. Also close to city center. Perfect for families!

    We loved everything. Location is charming, quick drive to Akureyri. Superp service. The owner was next level helpful, just á great host. Fantastic food, both the breafast buffey and also the dinner buffey (one of the best we’ve ever had. Big rooms, comfortable beds, cheap beer and the best thing was the breath taking view. Sauna, hot tub and pool nice touch. We’ll only book this hotel on all of our up coming trips.
