Really good Pizza Experience

“I had the best experience with Oriental Hotel when they helped organize 40+ pizzas for our engagement party. The team went out of their way to accommodate us, and all the pizzas were ready for our pick-ups. We received countless compliments on how great they tasted, including from our dairy and gluten-free friends. It truly made our event special!” view full review

Clean and Comfortable

Excellent Shared Bathrooms

“The shared bathrooms were surprisingly clean and well-maintained. I appreciated that they had been recently renovated, and they provided the comfort I needed during my stay. It was great not to have any unpleasant odors, which can sometimes be a concern in shared facilities.” view full review

Charming Character

“My room at the Oriental Hotel was filled with character and charm. The bed and linen were wonderful, making for a cozy night's sleep. Even though the building is historic, I loved that it felt cozy and cute rather than musty, allowing me to truly enjoy my stay.” view full review
