Reviews for Hotel Orientale
Review 1:Garage is not close to hotel. Breakfast ? So-So ! Looks ok, but it's all glitz, no warmth in the whole place. It's good for business, I guess, I did not like it. Overpriced for what one receives.
Review 2:Hotel is in middle of town
Review 3:Parking space was very secure and convenient and hotel situated right in the centre. Very quiet but central location with shops and restaurants a few steps away
Review 4:Loved the care and attention of the staff. Everyone was friendly and took great care to make my stay comfortable, enjoyable, and inclusive. They even got in gluten free goodies for me at breakfast.
Review 5:No balcony. Breakfast is every day the same and not so big in variety.
Review 6:Very good location, with a lot of restaurants and icecreambars in the neighbourhood. In walkingdistance from harbour and trainstation. Very friendly staff. Nice big and comfortable bed. Bathroom with yacuzzi. Very clean. Got a late check-out free. When we come back in Brindissi, we take the same hotel. We really enjoyed our holiday here.
Review 7:We had to change our room twice because of our level of cleanliness. The staff were very helpful and apologetic through the experience. However the management should probably spend a bit more on general upkeep.
Review 8:Staff very helpful, location superb as it's in the middle of old town on the main shopping road, tasty breakfast.
Review 9:Service in the breakfast room could have been better - re-filling of things that had run out was quite slow. There was no milk for tea in the room.
Review 10:Good location. Staff were generally friendly and polite. The room was clean.
Review 11:Difficult auto access through round-about road access through narrowstreets and alleys.Beds a bit hard for American tastes.
Review 12:Central downtown location in Brindisi is excellent for sightseeing,restaurants and waterfront. Great for pedestrians. Rooms have beenrecently remodeled and are clean. Available parking garage is a mustadvantage if you have a car.
Review 13:Even the room was huge and there was lots of room, there was not much closet Space.
Review 14:The central location and the good quality Gym, which could be arranged better though

Review 17:No restaurant but went to the seaside to eat which was quite lovely and close by in walking distance.
Review 18:Great location close to the water, restaurants and shopping. 20 mins. from airport
Review 19:Room only had Italian mains plug fittings - no Euro Plugs. Did manage to borrow an adaptor, but I think a Europlug shoud be standard in such a hotel at this level
Review 20:Well equipped room. Found a nice restaurant just round the corner, up from the port for dinner - De Gustibus Early coffee fascility was good as well as I had an early morning taxi
Review 21:Lack of atmosphere but to be fair this may have been because it was quiet season
Review 22:Breakfast Sky TV Hotel bicycle (nice touch) Bathrooms were well appointed
Review 23:The single rooms were basic & unattractive with windows opening on to an outside stairwell, so it wasn't safe to leave them open.
Review 24:The double rooms were attractive & the windows on street side had been sound-proofed with a glass-enclosed Juliet balcony. Air-conditioning was quiet & effective.Tea & coffee making facilities in room (no milk provided). Service was great. Breakfast (included) would have been great if the waiter had not forgotten to light the candles under the bain-marie. The staff were very pleasant & helpful.
Review 25:The room coffee & tea making facilities were poor - 2 Styrofoam cups, 1 coffee sachet, 1 decaff. coffee sachet, 1 tea bag, 1 cammomile tea bag, no milk (not even UHT) and 14 sachets of sugar ??. Not quite 4 star standard.
Review 26:Reception staff were excellent and saved me time, money and potential hassle when I had to purchase extra baggage allowance on line from Ryanair. Above and beyond their remit, they did this on my behalf, avoiding the necessity of me attempting this at the airport. Room was small but clean, bright and contemporary. Bed was firm and comfortable without being hard. Bathroom facilities were spotless with constant hot water. Shower cubicle fine (plastic door a bit flimsy but not a problem) - no bath.
Review 27:Wish it had a pool . Town closed down 1 till 5 felt like we'd been put to bed !!! Guy at information centre useless didn't want to help us at all
Review 28:Location great had a front room looking towards harbour was awesome seeing everyone out at 1 in the morning reminded us of old time movies
Review 29:we came by car - not easy as we did not know you may enter the road to the hotel which road was mentioned not to be used by car .....
Review 30:People working there,
Review 31:There were warning signs regarding that refurbishments were being carried out. I didn't expect them to be carrying them out on occupied rooms so I was surprised to discover on my return one afternoon that my door was being replaced and I couldn't use my room. The panelled, wooden door was replaced with a plain one which matched the furnishings in the room - from the cheaper end of Ikea! Pity that the bedrooms are so bland when the public areas are so nice. As a single traveller I was given a room behind the lifts with a view onto the substantial fire escape which is often the case in larger hotels.
Review 32:Ideally situated just a few metres from the habour front. Public areas have character.
Review 33:Molto accogliente, reception disponibile
Review 34:Nothing
Review 35:Very good place and location for reach several points of intetes in south Italy, such Lecce, Bari, etc.

Review 62:We liked Hotel Orientale as it was right in the heart of Brindisi with all the sights being walking distance. Our room was spacious, comfortable, clean and the shower was hot with good pressure. Breakfast was also very nice. We would happily stay there again.
Review 63:I wouldn't return to the restaurant "Betty", next door to "Skipper" - food was dreadful!
Review 64:Great location, on the Corso,10 minutes walk from station, and close to some good restaurants. Good. Evening meal at Ristorante "Skipper".
Review 65:There was only one electrical socket power supply on the main desk. Staff was helpful to provide additional wiring.
Review 66:The Hotel was located in the heart of the city. City traffic was controlled and thefore the hotel surrounding areas were very quite. Shops were available near to the hotel
Review 67:I have had better breakfasts in other hotels in Italy. It was quite extensive but the hot egg dish had run out on the first morning and the juice wasn't fresh as in other hotels we had stayed in
Review 68:The hotel was in an excellent spot, very easy to find. The staff were all extremely helpful, loaning us an umbrella when it rained, phoning for a taxi etc. We stayed in Brindisi as we had an early flight to catch and it was near the airport.
Review 69:the lovely helpful chap at reception gave us information about the airport bus which proved to be incorrect it is very difficult to obtain information about public transport in puglia
Review 70:this is a well run hotel staff are professional and efficient the room is simply furnished but arranged conveniently and everything works the bathroom was very clean and the shower does not leak the location is fine, within walking distance of the railway staion, supermarket, restaurants, bars and the seafront Breakfast is basic but adequate
Review 71:Noisy people on the floor, open doors and talking like they were in adorm, and they left the escape route open so they smoked and drank onthe stairs outside.
Review 72:The reception staff were very friendly and helpful. Location great.Ability to have fridge, tea making facilities great for European hotel.
Review 73:The jetbath in the room didn´t function.
Review 74:It´s easy to reach the hotel, less than 10 minutes walk from the station. Close to major sites in the city. Friendly and helpful staff.
Review 75:When I arrived with my pregnant belly, I had heavy luggages, but therewas nobody to help (there are quite some steps to enter the hotel). Ientered the hotel, leaving my luggages on the street, and asked forhelp. I heard the receptionist asking by phone "is there anybodythat can help with luggages?"... So, rather then waiting on thestreet "somebody" coming, I just took the luggages inside bymyself! Honestly, for such price, a 4* hotel should have somebodyhelping guests with the steps and with the elevator.
Review 76:The breakfast is nicely organized with both sweet and salty stuff. Thehotel also grants an abundant buffet for people leaving early in themorning (starting from 5.15am). This is very convenient, as most of theguests have early flights from Brindisi airport.
Review 77:Suite with large balcony/terrasse without any chairs and table.
Review 78:Very friendly and helpful staff. Good place midtown of the city and short distance to the airport. Restaurants and shopping nearby.
Review 79:Somehow felt a bit run down for a 4 star. But then the Colonna up the road was too. Maybe that's the way things are in Brindisi.
Review 80:Super nice reception , very helpful! Hadthe greatest tips for the area! Most central hotel it seems. Couldn't be better.
Review 81:Water pressure in the bathroom could be a bit better, although, my colleagues stayed in other rooms didn’t complain.
Review 82:Very nice hotel, with friendly staff and perfect location in the hart of the city. Wi-Fi is indeed available free of charge and speed is almost adequate for the Internet TV. Rooms are clean and well equipped.
Review 83:I couldn't get my spa bath to work, perhaps it was only a lack of instructions.
Review 84:The Location was very central and the staff were very friendly and helpful
Review 85:Brindisi was our departure city from Italy, and we stayed at theOrientale only because it was near to the airport. The parking garagewas confusing, and Brindisi was not so nice. The city seem closed up ona Sunday. One restaurant only could we find that was open. We left veryearly and missed breakfast, but at least they made some coffee for us.
Review 86:Although it said there would be an early bird breakfast at 5.15, this was not the case (even though it was paid for)
Review 87:Nice beds, beautiful bathroom, located close to the port and train station and in the city centre
Review 88:All was great . Some noise from pedestrian street but only to be expected . Dont think italians do "quiet"
Review 89:Great location and v good value .smart,clean and def to be recommended
Review 90:This is a very traditional hotel and a great pleasure to stay in. I received a courteous welcome from the dignified and experienced staff. The lobby is very attractive and I was very pleased with being in the centre of the lovely old town of Brindisi where, to my delight a Pizzica band were playing very nearby. The room was very spacious and comfortable, with everything you would need: air conditioning, TV, tea and coffee and little fridge with inexpensive items. For late arrivals before 10pm there were snacks available from room service. Breakfast was another delight and perfect welcome to Italia and all this area has to offer. Dont hesitate to stay here - it's wonderful.
Review 91:Bathroom could have been a little cleaner. There were a couple of hairs on the ground upon arrival.
Review 92:Great choice for a stopover in Brindisi. Located on "the" street in the city.
Review 93:Only two small things - plastic cups in the room, which is a bit strange for a 4* hotel and no Do Not Disturb sign
Review 94:Wonderful hotel with a very helpful and friendly staff, very good breakfast. They said that they would serve breakfast till 9.30 but nobody touched it even if you came at 10.00 Free bikes is a nice idea, but cycling in the sun wasn't possible 5 minutes to the port, cathedral, the best restaurants and cafes
Review 95:Forgetful chambermaids - the coffeee sachets, teabags and disposable cups and teaspoons were not replaced in our room after the first two nights. We had to intervene at the reception. It was OK afterwards.
