The area features a delightful array of shops, cafes, and restaurants, offering both local and international cuisine. Surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty, it serves as an excellent base for outdoor activities such as hiking and skiing. Just across the street, you'll find the famous ice cream shop Brynja—be sure to try the delicious "old ice cream." Within walking distance, the Akureyri Botanical Garden awaits, home to the charming coffee house List, which comes highly recommended. Additionally, the best swimming pool in Iceland is nearby, along with a large World Class gym. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit the Forest Lagoon, another local favorite that we recommend! Gamla Apótekið (The Old Pharmacy) was built in 1859 and was one of the largest and most elegant houses in Iceland at the time, featuring a spacious ground floor and high ceilings. In 2016 and 2017, Minjavernd meticulously rebuilt the house from the ground up. It was moved off the lot, a new foundation was poured, and then it was returned to its original location. All reusable materials, including the wooden paneling on the interior walls, were incorporated into the restoration. The house was rebuilt in accordance with the new building code and the strictest fire safety requirements. Essentially, The Old Pharmacy is a new house, and few properties in Iceland have been restored with such care. The house contains three apartments: a large apartment on the main floor and two smaller ones on the upper floor, called North and South. You will be renting the North Apartment in the upper floor. Upper Floor Apartment North : The upper floor has a private entrance . The North apartment features a swing in the living room.
