For a family of 5 this was a reasonably priced hotel for Reykjavik. The room was small but everyone had their own bed and it was fine for a one night stay. The breakfast was included and was great, lots of choice. The parking was onsite, free and easy. The town was in walking distance, took about 15 - 20 minutes to reach.

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.

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.

There were so many problems I don't even want to take the time to go through them all. Find a location slightly closer to the center. The only positive was free cake and unlimited coffee and tea and cappuccinos from the machine until midnight.

I liked how personable the staff was. They even made cakes and desserts for us! Rooms were clean, but i did find a pill on the floor, and not enough hand towels. Shower in my room was pretty small, but sufficient. I would stay there again
