Reviews
From the very first moment, we were warmly welcomed by the amazing reception team, especially Ghanem and Abdullah, whose kindness and professionalism made us feel at home.
Room service was excellent, attentive, and reliable. Breakfast was a real pleasure every morning, thanks to a smiling, caring, and welcoming staff. The hotel is spotless, very well maintained, and perfectly located.
What touched us the most was the beautiful and thoughtful gesture from the hotel management for my son’s birthday. Receiving a birthday pastry and a heartfelt birthday letter made my son incredibly happy and emotional. This moment meant so much to our family and will stay in our memories forever.
For me, Oran Hotel is not just a place to stay — it is a place where you feel valued and cared for.
It is simply the best hotel, and I will never choose another.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Oran Hotel.
Everything was amazing: the room was clean, and the staff were very hospitable, especially Mr. Galip at the reception. The breakfast was good, with really nice staff, especially Ms. Leyla Velid and the chef, Mr. Velit.
It had a very good location, close to transport and approximately 20 minutes from the Blue Mosque, in a very lively neighborhood.
We hope to come back with pleasure.
My greetings to Ms. Leyla.
The reception were very good, helping in each request. Mr. Farhad was good for booking and making good price. His back up reception person as well with the assitants were very good. I was happy that they were speaking English and Arabic
All freindly and helpful. Room service were very good. Breakfast staff were very good and nice I appreciate all Layla hanim, Firat and other who I don't know their names, as well the chef was following everything himself.
The hotel is good with very good location very close to metro, shops and resturants. I advice everyone to book for easy access and best holiday.
Last thing to mention the breakfast was mostly repeated. And did not have soup and extra snacks we see in 4 stars hotel. This was only thing I like to mention which can be improved.
The staffs are very friendly and helpful as well. Mr Ferhat, Mrs kevsen (the 1 making omelette), Tanil, actually all the staffs are very friendly always smiling.. it is really a great hotel.
