Me and my partner stayed in Oriental for one week in September 2010. This hotel was a little bit expensive for us (depends on your budget) so expectations were high. Unfortunately we were completely disappointed.. Room: we paid extra for the sea view but were put into the horrible street / kitchen extraction unit view which additionally was noisy throughout...

This hotel cost £120 less per night than the Algarve Casino so expections were low. However I think that this hotel is good value for money. Rooms are in need of a refurb but the are clean and functional. I paid extra to secure a front sea view and the viwe was awesome. Breakfast was positively average. Bar is very... More

Our accommodation was poor,the balcony overlooked the kitchen complete with rusting & noisy extraction unit.When we requested a move it was refused as "The Oriental is full"....no apology or discount offered. The buffet breakfast was only adequate with limited choice & the worst coffee I have ever tasted. The pool & gardens were fine but I was surprised that we... More

Stayed for 7 nights in August on Bed & Breakfast basis. No assistance with luggage available or offered. The room allocated stunk of stale cigarette smoke despite supposedly a non-smoking hotel and despite our definite booking request of a non-smoking room. Upon asking for a room change this was begrudgingly given and we received a garden room which was fine... More

Out of the many beach holidays that we have taken over the years this is the only resort that we have returned to mainly because of the beach. This was our third visit and we decided to stay at the Oriental due to it's location at the quieter end of Praia Da Rocha . Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, the... More

We stayed for 9 days and had a good sized room with balcony, sea view and kitchenette. The room was perfectly adequate with plenty of space and was also quiet. The location is right on the main strip of Praia da Rocha (eastern end) with direct access for residents to the superb beach (one of the best we have experienced... More

This hotel only has 3 car spots for the entitre hotel. I'm not kidding. You have to find your own car parking in the area and it's not easy to find. And don't get a room on the ground floor. They have remodeled the rooms and they stink of plastic/glue due to the new flooring. Other than those two things,... More

Good afternoon, The parking is an issue that we are trying to solve with the local authorities. However in the busier periods of the year we have an agreement with a close by parking building for 8 extra parking places where our costumers can park for free. The remodiling of our rooms is part of our policy of constant improvement... More
