Hotel Ork enjoys a strategic location that's been widely lauded by guests for its convenience and easy access to local attractions. The staff's friendly and professional service often receives high marks, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere complemented by modern amenities. While the comfort and cleanliness of rooms are generally celebrated, some guests have pointed out inconsistencies and maintenance issues. The hotel's amenities, including the geothermal pool, are popular, though some furnishings appear dated. However, concerns over value for money and extra costs have been raised by guests, particularly those traveling with family.

We stayed here as part of our tour. The hotel was clean, spacious and the rooms were nice. The breakfast was plentiful but they did not top up the tea and coffee fast enough for the amount of people. We had happy hour beer and wine which was a bonus and reasonable prices especially for Iceland. The pool was lovely! Hot and beautiful! Very clean and the hot tubs even warmer and lovely! The sauna smells of sulphur which is to be expected but not that pleasant. All in all a nice hotel with lovely features I would book it again. Stayed with our children ages 9 and 11 who loved it

Nicely decorated hotel and friendly staff but overpriced. Breakfast selection was minimal for what they charged in comparison to other hotels we stayed in for less during our Icelandic trip. Hot tubs were out of order and TV was on the blink, not that it mattered much to us but you would expect not to experience this for nearly €300 per night. Wouldn't stay again unfortunately.

Hotel Örk is a very clean, quiet, smart and cosy hotel, the staff is very friendly and food is very good. The rooms are very comfortable and i love the open cupboards, you never forget a thing when you leave and everything is easy to access.

The room entrance doors to next have no acoustic resistance. Really bad impact every other guest pass by or close their door. Bad timing of children school excursion staying at the hotel and playing football within corridors, wedding guests over the weekend. The pool outdoor temperature is so, so (December sataying) – the steam room is in a very bad state and temperature not hot enough. I visit Iceland periodically every year and for the same price you could get much more comfortable accommodation (out of Reykjavik). Note: they do some refurbishment so maybe they could improve and do something about the room entrance doors acoustics as well…..

Fantastic spot. Lovely geothermal pool and opposite the Greenhouse food court. Really nice rooms and everything you need. Highly recommended stopover on the south. Decent breakfast and a neat games room for those with kids.

I spent 4 nights at the Órk hotel. The room had all the amenities, bathroom with shower, large window, heat. One could complain about the bed being too hard, but who cares? Large TV, armchair, no wardrobe. Two things are a bit disturbing - a microscopic fridge inside which was about 15 degrees C and the blinking light around the bathroom mirror. However, after reporting to the reception, I was offered a room change. I sincerely recommend this hotel, and I especially liked the breakfasts. A very large selection of food and drinks. Due to the weather I didn't use the pool and hot tub, but they looked fantastic. It's a small town, but there are some very nice restaurants nearby.

It was a 7 night stay at the Hotel Ork. A wonderful experience, we enjoyed the thermal baths and sauna every day. The breakfast is delicious. We were 2 couples and a baby. We stayed in rooms next to each other. In our room there was a crib ready for our baby. The view from the windows was beautiful, with the mountains in the distance. The location of the hotel is great, in addition to easily accessing the coastal area and Selfoss, in front of the hotel there is a supermarket and next door there is a gas station. The town of Hveragerdi is beautiful and friendly. What we liked most about the hotel were our moments in the hot tubs (36 to 40°C), in the sauna with volcanic sulfur vapors (50°C) and the large pool, which was a little less hot than the hot tubs. We frequent swimming pools with external temperatures of -12°C. It was wonderful!

5 nights holiday in a wonderful hotel. Only bad thing is that you have to request to be cleaned your room, otherwise will not be done. Old Covid rules.We saw Aurora on a back room facing to the mountains.

Always nice and warm welcome at hotel Örk. Great food and helpful staff. Large and comfortable rooms. Would be good to have something to hang your towels on the wall. Hveragerdi is a charming little town. We will be back.
