Hotel Orkin
Brautarholti 29, 105 Reykjavík, Iceland – Great location - show map
Great place. Our excursion bus picked us up right in front.
United States of AmericaGreat small hotel, very clean, great continental breakfast and staff was very friendly.
United States of AmericaThe location was great; the Flybus dropped us off for a few dollars extra. It was close (within 1/2 mile) to lots of food and sights so we walked everywhere. The room was a bit small (as most city hotels that aren't super expensive are!) but it was clean and had everything we needed. We had to leave before breakfast was served and they very kindly made us a couple of sandwiches to take with us. The staff were very nice and provided information.
United States of AmericaThis is a great place to stay. It's an older building, but it is clean, has helpful staff, and it's affordable. It's close enough to walk to downtown Reykjavik, Harpa, the waterfront, etc. It's off on a quieter sidestreet. There's a Bonus grocery store close by. Breakfast was very nicely laid out in a dining room area with breads, meats, cereals, etc. Very quiet. The rooms are not fancy, nor large, and ours had twin beds. But for a clean, quiet place for a quick visit to Reykjavik this was a great deal.
United States of AmericaThe hotel was well set up for families, was very clean, cozy beds, exceptional breakfast and very friendly helpful staff. Well situated. Our family loved it here
CanadaWould stay again just because of the breakfast and location. It was clean
United States of AmericaThere was plenty of room for all of us and it felt spacious and comfortable. It was very clean and breakfast was delicious. We loved that my mother-in-law had an early flight and would miss the breakfast so they made her a sandwich to pick up in the morning. We thought that was absolutely wonderful and nice. The location was also nice and that we could walk to a nice dinner.
United States of AmericaClose to airport, late check-in. Comfortable rooms and bathroom. Great breakfast buffet. Good WiFi. Good AC.
United States of AmericaBreakfast Rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff provided extra pillows. StFf allowed early drop off of luggage prior to check in.
United States of AmericaGreat location in a quiet mixed residential/business neighborhood very close to downtown Reykjavik. We walked about 25 minutes to Harpa on the waterfront. About 20 minutes walk to the main tourist areas. Plenty of parking at hotel. Our room was very clean with 2 twin beds, but we didn't see a queen available. Bathroom has shower gel only. Breakfast was included and very nice. Coffee, tea, juices, boiled eggs, breads, jams, various meats and cheese slices, cut veggies, orange wedges. The breakfast room is spacious and clean. This was a deal compared to other hotels!
