Thorfinnsstadir Hotel & Travel Guide\n
Thorfinnsstadir has just one accommodation option. So if you had hoped to stay close to Thorfinnsstadir's downtown area, make a booking early.
There are just a small number of hotels to choose from within an easy walk from the urban core of Thorfinnsstadir. The Hótel Hvítserkur is an ideal option because it's just 2 miles (3 kilometers) away.
A couple of hotel establishments that could be worth checking out include the Hotel Edda Laugarbakki and Hótel Hvítserkur. The Hotel Edda Laugarbakki is 15 miles (24 kilometers) away from the middle of Thorfinnsstadir. The Hótel Hvítserkur is 0.4 miles (0.6 kilometers) away. The North West Hotel & Restaurant is 9 miles (15 kilometers) outside of the main part of Thorfinnsstadir and is another great alternative.
Looking for more to do? You could spend the day enjoying Blonduos Church and Museum of Handicrafts, which can be found in Blonduos, 15 miles (24 kilometers) northeast of Thorfinnsstadir. The Hótel Blönduós and Glaðheimar Cottages are just some of the convenient accommodation alternatives in Blonduos. Or, you could consider staying in Saudarkrokur, 35 miles (54 kilometers) northeast of Thorfinnsstadir, where you can pick from the Hotel Tindastóll and Hotel Mikligardur. While in Saudarkrokur, set aside a little time to visit the Saudarkrokur Heritage Museum and Tannery Visitor Centre.
When you are flying into or out of Akureyri Airport and hope to stay nearby, have a look at Hotel Kea by Keahotels or Icelandair Hotel Akureyri.

Hótel Blönduós
"My stay at Hótel Blönduós was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve had in Iceland. Everything started badly: I received a message informing me that the hotel had been rented out to a private company and that I had to choose between two alternatives. I picked Hotel Laugarbakki, their “sister hotel,” which unfortunately felt more like the neglected, poor relative of the family. The property itself had an unsettling atmosphere, almost like a budget version of the Overlook Hotel from The Shining. The “luxury” room I was given was dirty, the bathroom door was a smoked‑glass panel that let in every bit of Icelandic summer daylight, and the blackout curtains were completely ineffective. To make things worse, the towels were dirty and even torn, and the room clearly hadn’t been cleaned properly. The whole situation felt misleading and unprofessional. I genuinely believe neither of the options they offered is worth considering."
