Paid for the trip through Expedia in september 2024 (6 months ahead). Arrived at the hotel at 6AM to checkin after having 10hrs travel with no sleep with some stop overs.

I was told by the helpdesk they cannot honor my booking because last years price is not this years price and they review their prices yearly.

I asked the reason why they didnt advise that earlier. They had 7months to cancel the booking but they didnt. They said I need to make a new booking for the 7days and they will give me a discount.

I spoke to expedia and it took an 1hr 30minutes to resolved this and I didnt later pay a penny. All staffs asks for money. Toilets were moudly and staffs on the helpdesk call woulldnt help to fix safelock when I had valualble items in it and I called x9 because it got a battery low and wouldnt work.

So so

At check-in they didn't find my reservation, then the room was not done. TV is broken, shower takes 15 minutes to be just warm, not got. Room service takes at least 45 minutes (longer at the restaurant/bar).
Pro: clean, big space, tranquility, complementary minibar

I was given a horrible room I did not book online. They claimed the room I booked was sold out and refused to offer my refund. They downgraded me to a lower room. Stay away from this place. If I can give 0 star, I would have done that.

The environment is great. The staff are very courteous and helpful. The only negatives for me are, the air conditioning at times does not cool sufficiently enough, and the refrigerator in the room does not cool beverages sufficiently enough.

It’d be faster to list what actually worked…

Very poor condition hotel. Air conditioner in room was barely functional, no better than a tower fan blowing warm air around. Dry cleaning machine was broken, and was told its take 3+ days to get my suit back. In room phones did not work for the duration of stay, making ordering of room service impossible. Internet was spotty, and slow, if it worked at all. The only eatery open past 10 within walking distance was the pool bar, but they had a live music band playing till midnight at maximum, headache inducing, volume.

Staff were nice, and helpful, no doubt - but that’s the only redeeming quality of the whole stay.

The overall condition of the hotel is fair. It needs upgrading, needs fresh painting and room needs shower heads etc.
The carpets at the hallway needs to be replaced and better lighting along the hallway.
I asked for a king bed and was given twin beds???

Terrible hotel

This is definitely the worst hotel I've ever been at, this we supposed to be a 5 star hotel. The room was so dirty, holes in the covers, the bathroom is the worst, literarily everywhere you took is filthy. The only reason I stayed was that every hotel was booked out because of the festive season. They switched our room, they second room as as bad as the first
The hotel staff; OMG starting from the first person you speak to when you walk in to the doormen were so rude, you'd think they were forced to work.
I can go on and on about everything wrong with is place, see the attached pictures yourself

Creepy environment and poor food

This hotel is located in Victoria Island and rooms have nice view of the water, but that’s the only good thing about it. Food is so horrible unfortunately can’t be a 5 starts hotel type of food. The environment in the hotel is so creepy which made me sacrifice 2 nights that I paid for and go to enjoy my weekend in another hotel instead of staying miserable after the hotel refused to refund my money back which also give me an impression that they are cheap. I do not recommend this hotel. I have paid a lot less for a nearby hotel and everything is amazing including the food and the environment.

Orientals is now being run-down, furnitures are extremely old, TV is very old with poor visual quality. Cable TV is terrible. Breakfast option is scanty. The elevator is is slow, requires immediate service.
In general, I would NOT advice a friend to go there.

Arrived at the hotel and was checked into the new wing. The entire hotel was smelly and very dirty. The property looks abandoned. The hall way at the new wing is dirty and the carpet on the floor stinking. I complained to Mr Lanre at the reception and my room was changed to the old wing which was supposedly better but still it was nothing to justify the almost two Hundred Dollar Per night that I paid for this stay. The fridge was leaking and the wooden door on the fridge compartment was falling off. As a gold member with Expedia, this is the worst hotel I have stayed. You have to walk for almost five minutes through very unkept hallways to get to the restaurant for breakfast. his hotel needs to be closed down for a total overhaul.

I’m very disappointed from all aspects.

1. Unreasonable price.
The hotel price is very similar as the other 5 star hotels, but the facilities are dirty, old, and not maintained. I travelled a lot over the world, this 5 star hotel is the worst one I’ve ever stayed. It’s even worse than 2 star hotel in China.

2. No consistent power.
January 27 was my worst day in my life. I was stuck in the elevator container with blackout, emergency ring DID NOT work, emergency phone DID NOT work either. I don’t want to recall that scary memory. I spent longest 5 minutes in my life, when I was walking out the elevator, my hands, arms, and legs shaking.

3. Worst customer service
General manager, manager, staff are lazy and don’t do their jobs properly. Although they offered me one night stay, I don’t feel their apologies. Even though, GM, manager and staff said sorry, I don’t feel that is from heart.

4. My colleague met with a client who was splashed dirty water because of cleaning overhead!!!

Overall, I won’t recommend this hotel other than Chinese restaurant.

Expedia and the hotel are not communicating . Despit paying hundreds of pounds for our 3 nights stay . the hotel told us at the reception that they have not note of our booking with them. We had to make a new reservation on the spot and go and pursue Expedia ourselves. Was an anxious moment no place to stay.

Nice but----bathroom need updating

I spent one night here as my friend celebrated her 50th in one of the banquet halls. The location is great, specious room and the lagoon view from room on 10th floor is beautiful. However, the bathroom is old and needs updating and did not look well cleaned after last guest. I was in the room just to sleep for a few hours after the party so i did not fuss. Usually I would insist on the bathroom being properly cleaned.

The property itself was very elegant from the outside. However the cleanliness was appalling!!
The carpets in the lobby and corridors were so visibly dirty!! Our room on the first day was so unclean! I imagine nobody bothers to check the level of cleanliness from supervisory point of view.

The Housekeeping Service was very good because they cleaned and dusted the room very quickly on request!

The Breakfast Room was very clean and good variety of meals offered.

There is only a 20% chance of staying at the Oriental in future

The stay wasn’t bad honestly however, for the price i would have expected Orientals rooms to be a lot nicer. No carpet, bathrooms subpar with appearance and the room is just bare. The carpet that’s in the hallway has an odor that isn’t very pleasant. I honestly wouldn’t pay to stay here again as there are other great hotels in that area that the comfort is worth the price.
