My partner and I booked a room here last week as a last minute booking and we were beyond thrilled with the room, the service, and the breakfast! The rooms were simple, but very clean and had everything we needed! The breakfast was also simple, but wonderful and traditional. Arthur was an EXCELLENT host! Very kind, very responsive, and he introduced us to the lambs/sheep around the property. He also helped us out with a few loads of laundry after camping for two weeks. I would 10/10 recommend a stay!

Certainly, here's a review for Arthur at the Hotel Lamb Inn: --- We recently stayed at the Hotel Lamb Inn and were absolutely delighted by the exceptional service provided by Arthur. From the moment we checked in, Arthur treated us with the utmost respect and kindness. He was always ready to assist with anything we needed, ensuring that our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. Arthur's attention to detail and proactive approach to guest service made our visit memorable. He went above and beyond to accommodate our requests and always did so with a smile. His recommendations for local dining and attractions were spot on, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to our trip. Thanks to Arthur, the Hotel Lamb Inn felt like a home away from home. His dedication to providing the best possible service is truly commendable. Anyone looking for a warm welcome and a pleasant stay should hope to be greeted by Arthur. He’s a standout in hospitality!

Johannes and Arthur were so welcoming, after a really bad journey through the mountains and deep in high snow they looked after us making sure we had plenty of food, helped us navigate the roads and made sure we were safe, we would highly recommend staying here. A good selection for breakfast and home cooked meals on an evening to save us going out in snow. Thank you so much for everything

Upon our arrival to check-in, I learned that I had reserved a room in error for the following night. Luckily, Luna was very accommodating and able to arrange for us to stay in the last room available. The room was clean and spacious with beds that were comfortable. The breakfast, which was included, was delicious. My family and I were very appreciative of the staff's flexibility and would highly recommend staying here.

Our favorite stay on our 10 day ring road trip by far. The lamb dinner dish was the best meal I’ve had in Iceland. And I ate A LOT yummy dishes on this trip.

Quiet, beautiful location, 8 km from Akureyri. We had a room at the back of the building, with a beautiful view across the valley. We ate here in the evening, and were very impressed - lamb is not just in the name, but a speciality of the kitchen. Only criticism is that in some ways the room looked a bit tired and in need of updating, but it was certainly clean.

Spacious room for 4. Breakfast was good with a good variety. Check in and check out was quick. We were in room 14 and could hear someone walking in the room upstairs. Also the shower drain plugged but we got someone to fix it immediately.

I can’t complain about any aspect of my stay here

We had a lovely 2 night stay at Lamb Inn. The host and other staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The hot tub was divine. We also were lucky enough to have a dinner there, since the kitchen wasn’t officially open, and it was amazing. They were also happy to accommodate our group member who doesn’t eat meat. I highly recommend Lamb Inn!

We went to Iceland in the middle of February when the roads were packed with ice and snow. We spent three nights at the Lamb Inn and the service was excellent! Matt was so kind and helpful when we needed advice on road conditions…and even brought us dinner when we were snowed in! Couldn’t have asked for a better to place to stay.

Cozy and relaxing place a few minutes from city
Very cozy place, in a quiet location just few minutes from the city. Decor is amazing bringing you back to another time and makes you feel at home. Breakfast is great and the homemade items are delicious. Sad that their kitchen was not open for dinner during my stay, I read that their food is delicious.

The lovely huge bathtub in the living-room was unique ☺️ The beds in the cubbies were great and the master bedroom was fantastic. The special room service because of our late arrival was appreciated as was the wonderful breakfast. The only issue was the wifi poor connection, but it was an isolated location and a night without internet isn’t necessarily a negative thing. 👍
