The Oriana Orange - Retro Hotel & Resort

We loved our stay. The Oriana is wonderfully outfitted and the staff are amazing. They're super friendly and went above and beyond for us. Espen the owner even dug me out a plant cutting! Will definitely return - couldn't run into friendlier people.

Our second time staying at the Oriana. Always great service. Very warm, comfortable bed. Love the decor in the room. Appreciated the dim light of the lamps, air conditioning already on, and soft music playing when we entered the room. It was a nice touch and we appreciated the warmth given the cold evening and late check in. On our next stay we will have to check in earlier to try the restaurant. We’ve heard great reviews about the food too!

Simple makeover of an old motel which really uplifted it. Bed was comfy, room spacious, the shower hot and water pressure good and the TC worked well. Looking forward to trying room service or the restaurant there. Reports were positive, but we had other arrangements. The Irish girl at front of house was excellent.

We stayed in the Africa 2 room on the second floor. This was decorated with interesting historical posters about Africa. The king-size bed was super comfortable and the bathroom towels and toiletries were of exceptional quality. Unusually, the tea and coffee facilities included a very nice leaf tea and a teapot to brew it in. As a tea lover, I found this to be a much better experience than settling for tea bags. We were pleased to see that we were given a welcome package. Outside our front door there was a sun terrace with outdoor lounge and table. On our first night we had pizza and drinks in the outdoor garden bar. The pizza was excellent, probably the best I have had. We did not eat in the "Peacock Room" dining room, but it has excellent reviews and offers breakfast and dinner. Overall, our stay at the Oriana greatly exceeded our expectations.

My stay at the Oriana was nothing short of exceptional. It is clear that the Oriana team understand hospitality and service so well. Upon booking, I received a follow up phone call to confirm, where I was able to request an early check-in, due to me needing to be in attendance at an event shortly after the usual 2pm check-in time. The team were more than happy to facilitate this. Upon arrival, I was greeted by Meg, who was warm, friendly, helpful and efficient. I had received a complimentary room upgrade that was thoughtfully located with incredibly easy access in and out of the property, which suited my needs perfectly. I was gifted with a welcome pack containing snacks and offered a complimentary beverage. Parking and room access was easy and straightforward. My room was so beautifully and thoughtfully appointed, complete with soft lighting and soft jazz music playing! Thoughtful and generous snack and mini bar inclusions, along with toiletries. The bed was incredibly comfortable, all the amenities were in excellent condition and the breakfast the next morning was delicious and exceptional value! I wouldn't hesitate to stay at The Oriana again, it really was brilliant from start to finish.

Rooms were well appointed , casual and fine dining options were both excellent and the retro cocktail bar was a blast . Great service and really well located . Highly recommend and looking forgot going bin the warmer months to experience the pool and pool bar

A pretty good stay but the cost of a room and feed is very expensive for what really is an updated 60 s motel , food is pretty good though service was hit and miss but was busy , much rather stay at the byng street boutique motel , plenty of better places to stay in orange

The room was fabulous and the restaurant excellent. Food was fresh and high quality. Tops to the Chef. Congratulations to staff for being so welcoming and professional. To my surprise my room was upgraded which was a lovely gesture. Thanks to all

Very welcoming on arrival... Room was warm, comfortable and inviting... A large event on the night of my stay didn't impact the tranquil environment... Great location... Generous addition of snacks... Looking forward to a return visit.
