Very Quite ”

it very Quite place and close to bab al bahrain

Bad cleanliness, arrogent staff and so bad experiance ”

Bad wifi Bad cleanliness, they wont change the dirty sheets even if you asked for it. So noisy location and AC creates a bad sound like a machinary, Staff are so arrogent, i asked for there supervisor they said no one will help u but me. They took money for my wife to stay with me for a day. Not worth to pay one dinar. Even Agoda they did not reply back to my calls for booking amendments. I wont recomend this site.

Excellent”

Located in the heart of the Bab El Bahrain cultural precinct, very close to Indian quarter and public transport. The interiors are fairly dated (but I did like the feel of being an Aramco executive from the seventies), but the service from staff is complete and the cafe downstairs has a wide menu serving local and South Asian cuisine. The management were also most generous in allowing early check in and luggage storage before my late afternoon flight. All in all a pleasant stay.

Old school hotel in the middle of Manama Souk (indian /jewelry shops)but pleasant stay..”

A bit creepy in the night. Nice in the day time. Walking distance to the souk/Shops. The most important, room very clean, carpet not smelly & bathroom with bathtub very clean. Breakfast not much choices but nice. Their Karak Tea is marvelous.!

Overall good”

i loved how they kept the the room clean and specially the bathroom despite the old furniture.. the breakfast though is so poor when it comes to the variety. the location is amazing as its in the center of manama market.. didn't like how there's no parking area for the hotel itself.. the staff however were friendly and helpful.

Hard to find but decent place to spend a night”

pretty tough to find especially at night. if you’re not used to driving in bahrain, driving through tiny one-way streets in the city center will be frustrating. the hotel looks like it hasn’t seen any remodeling since the 1970’s. furniture, carpet and curtains all look like they’ve been used since the 1970’s. but the rooms were still pretty clean. beds were rock hard but overall it was a decent place for one night. it’s in the middle of the souq area, so good location for shopping. they let us check out late (3pm) without additional charge which helped us out a lot.

Best Affordable Stay in Bahrain”

For the price, I was satisfied with the facilities in the room, including the wide range of cable television channels available and a mini balcony overlooking the streets. However, the water for shower takes quite a while to be heated and the towels provided have some tiny stains. Overall, it's a good experience but the washroom needs improvement, especially the shower.

No parking”

When I reached the hotel i asked the security guard for parking area he said there is no parking area, i spent one hour looking for parking spot but I couldn’t find any I couldn’t even check in !!!! Ridiculous

Very good ”

Remove the old glasses in cafeteria and put some antique type glasses

highly recommended”

Room is very clean and comfortable. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful. Location is perfect. The restraint in this hotel is good. Thank you Oriental Palace Hotel :)

Excellent services”

It has been an extremely good experience at Oriental Palace Hotel in Manama (Bahrain). The property is nicely maintained and managed. Th staff, particularly, Sai at the counter/reception is very-very good, I'd say exceptionally pleasant personality. Right from breakfast to room service, everything was very professional. I enjoyed my stay and will stay again here when I come next time to Bahrain.

Oriental Palace Hotel”

It was great! It felt like we stepped back in time; the decor and furniture is outdated and worn but everything was very clean. The staff were lovely. They remembered us and had our keys ready the moment we stepped in the door. My only complaint would be that we attempted to order hummus to our room twice. We never received any hummus, so that was a bummer. Excellent for the price; however, remember that this is one of the cheapest hotels in Bahrain so don't expect the extravagance of some of the upscale hotels in the area.

Overrated”

Location is hard to find.. Bed is not comfortable.. Airconditioning is very poor and there is a leakage of water at the duct.. Breakfast is not good just a bread and eggs... I will not come back to this hotel anymore...

Nice budget hotel”

I had a great stay at Oriental Palace Hotel. Although I arrived after midnight the check-in was very fast and the staff was efficient. Room was basic, but clean and it had everything I needed. The breakfast was kinda simple. Would stay there again.

Good choice for budget stay”

Room was big, but noisy...A/C old and noise from A/C engines in building was constant. So...have some good ear plugs ready. Breakfast was normal, and restaurant was lovely and cheap Indian food. Every night I eat there...always empty, no atmosphere, but good food. Staff was friendly.

Hotel was Good, but Not Much Around It.”

I stayed at the Oriental Palace to see a different part of Manama from my other trips to the city. Check-in was quick and hassle-free. This was a very good hotel for the price. Including all taxes and fees, I paid less than $100.00 U.S. for my room for two nights (low price for a good room in Bahrain), which was big enough, clean, quiet, cool and safe. I found the interior of the room to be nice. Staff were very helpful and friendly at all times. The immediate area around the hotel wasn't for tourists, so far as I could see. There was another hotel with bars nearby, but that was it. I took long walks and hired a couple of taxis to get out to see this district, and this was mostly good, but one taxi driver cheated me (NOTE to travelers: DON'T hire any taxis with "Bahrain 223" on the license plate or on the side of the car unless you want to risk getting ripped off), and the method he used to cheat me was really pitiful! There, I got that off my chest! So, I'm no salesman, but if you want a really good, budget hotel and you don't mind having to travel a little for things to do, the Oriental Palace could be a smart choice for you. And if you have business in the immediate vicinity and you don't want a high-priced hotel, I think you might like it here, too.

Budget hotel centrally located”

We wanted a budget location for one night for site seeing in Manama. We found a clean hotel in a great location. Check in was fast. Room was better than expected for the price. (@$45usd). Bathroom was big and clean. It had a bath tub. WIFI in room worked well. Breakfast was international with eggs to order. We stored our bags for the day before an evening flight. I would recommend this hotel without hesitation.

Best for backpackers”

We stayed in this hotel for 2 nights.. The room is not that big with 2 single beds apart... the bathroom is clean with free shampoo and soap.. The wifi is only available in the reception. The elevator is old but still functioning well.. We had problem opening the door of our room coz the knob was too hard to open and the view from the veranda is not that impressing... the location was good but bec. of the new construction besides the hotel, we had difficulty looking for it during our first night....The hotel is neAr the famous Bab'al Bahrain and manama souk.... so for the backpackers and weekend trippers, these hotel is for u if your looking for a budget and location wise hotel....

Clean but a little worn”

I stayed one night and I was impressed by its cleanliness. However, the furniture and the hotel is a little worn out and old. It is in a quiet part of town. I was initially given a single bed and moved to a bed with a queen sized bed. It is conveniently located to all the markets around Bab-al Bahrain.

Good service and central location”

In general not too bad but the overall quality of the place was not good. For the price it is acceptable so should fall into the very tight budget traveler range. Old tv's so you can't hook your external hard drive to it to watch movies. The area is not good and very little to see around it. The room was clean though and they had started to renovate the bathrooms.
