A lovely very comfortable hotel that had exactly what we needed - comfortable bed, lovely breakfast and great service. Not a luxury hotel but exactly what we needed - and perfect for our trip.

6/10 Good

This hotel is good if you need a quick cheap stay but the rooms were small, hair all over the bed and the bathroom floor was dirty, not sure if cleaned. There are better hotels for a good price! But this hotel did its job with my 4 days here, would not come back tho.
Meagan, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall good but not the most comfortable sleep

The hotel is very nice but I found the room itself a bit uncomfortable. The beds were firmer than I like with only one thin pillow ( I asked for a second pillow and they brought it up immediately!) there were very few outlets and not placed in logistical areas so that I would use my backup battery to charge on the bedside overnight and then recharge the battery during the day. The shower was very small and the curtain would billow in and cling to you while showering—no way to get away from it! Parking was free and ample but it isn’t super close to the downtown area where best restaurants and shops are. We didn’t find the 1.3 mile walk a problem (rather nice in the summer when the sun doesn’t set!) but most probably would drive downtown and need to pay for parking. The area felt very safe. Breakfast I think is typical for what hotels here served and saved us money on eating out. Very robust and tasty food (bread with lots of spreads, yogurt, granola, soft boiled eggs and cold cuts) Overall despite not being one of the more comfortable places I’ve ever stayed it is the “devil you know” and I would stay here again

Quaint spot in Reykjavik

We stayed at the apartment within Hotel Orkin..it was an absolutely lovely stay! The staff were beyond helpful, kind, and welcoming. Location was great - easily walkable and within close proximity of main attractions. The apartment was a lovely, comfortable space - we hope to visit again in the spring/summer amd will definitely look to stay again at Hotel Orkin.
