WELL WORTH A VISIT My husband and I attended Whitney’s Restaurant at the Remington Hotel on Sunday night and were very pleasantly surprised. We went there with no real expectations as too many “up market “ restaurants in Orange of late have become overpriced in both their food and wine on offer and their service leave a lot to be desired. This was not the case at Whitney’s quite the opposite. The food was not only delicious, but extremely satisfying and reasonably priced. The presentation of the desserts were impeccable and just as delicious as anything I have had at many hatted restaurants in regional and major cities. It was also refreshing to see local wines showcased and at reasonable prices for a change. The staff I must say were very welcoming and extremely professional. Ray did a wonderful job of making us feel comfortable and at ease. Brendon who had only been there for a few weeks was one of the most professional wait staff I had encountered in Orange for quite awhile, whilst also being warm and friendly, a trait very few can achieve in the hospitality industry. Although Whitney’s does not have spectacular views from inside the restaurant, you hardly notice as the decor is not only tasteful contemporary but also warmly inviting. As we live relatively close to this wonderful new restaurant, we will becoming regulars and look forward to trying more of what they have to offer.

Stayed for three nights which included both Friday and Saturday nights. Motel is well situated to shops, cafes and restaurants being just one block back from the main street. The motel is also right next door to the huge Orange Ex-Services Club which has a very large open rooftop bar and dining area that hosts live bands on Friday and Saturday nights and a DJ on the Sunday afternoon we stayed. We received a phone call from someone at the Mercure three days before our arrival to alert us to the fact that the club would be playing live music on Friday and Saturday nights possibly up to midnight and ”was this alright?”. I responded not really but obviously they can do nothing about this and it was far too late for us to try and book alternative accommodation given it was during Food Week and the Forage weekend. There was some comfort in the fact that the music finished at about 10-30pm on both evenings (rather than midnight) but there was no chance of sleeping before that time given that the music was very loud and the lead singers couldn't hold a note and were ruining all the songs. As for the motel. Our room was on the first floor (there was an elevator) facing the free car park with a common walkway out the front so that you had to keep the blinds down on the main window to gain privacy. The room was furnished with a queen sized bed (very comfortable) that had bedside tables and reading lights either side of it. There was a long desk/table attached to one wall that had two chairs and a cupboard that contained a jug, toaster, microwave, minibar fridge, cups, glasses, bowls and cutlery. There was another cupboard at the opposite end that contained an iron and an ironing board. There was also a very large flat screen TV attached to the wall above the desk/table. The bathroom was functional although the vanity basin area was small with little room to store toiletries. The shower (pressure was good) had both rainwater and hand held nozzles but there was no door which meant that water cascaded out onto the floor and the nearby toilet. Both the room and the bathroom were very clean and were serviced daily. WIFI was free and worked well but you had to logon every day using a specified password. Staff at check-in and check-out were very pleasant and helpful.

It is for my family and it is close to where I live. Clean and basic. Friendly staff.

Clean and good service, however, it is a bit expensive, if you like to drink, it is a good selection

De Russie is an attractive, upmarket hotel in Orange. The City is beautiful, particularly in autumn, and the hotel is just around the corner from the shopping areas and is surrounded by many heritage properties. The friendly (nothing is too much bother) service was excellent. Our kitchenette was perfect and they had free laundry facilities. The light breakfast just right and the spacious rooms made for a very comfortable three day stay. The pricing is good for what we were provided with…I’m sick of paying a lot for very average places. De Russie is recommended.

Wonderful stay at The Oriana, Professional welcome by Tim at reception who told us about dining, breakfast options and where the best parking was for our room. The room was large and had more than we needed. The beds, pillows, towels, plentiful hot water were wonderful. We dined in the restaurant both evenings and the food was amazing. We also had breakfast both mornings and it was more than adequate. All staff we encountered were friendly and professional. We would certainly stay here again.

Visited Orange over a long weekend and decided to stay at Parkview. We were pleasantly surprised with the quality of accommodation given its a pub. Location is by far the best in the heart of town walking distance to great eating joints, shopping and bars. Since we didnt drive, being in the centre of town was a great advantage. We booked Deluxe Room (think it was #4) which was in a small enclosed space with a common lounge area shared with other deluxe rooms. Well insulated and recently renovated. The hotel & the pub overall were well maintained and clean. Staff was friendly and very helpful. They had live music on friday and saturdays which can compete with any great pub in Sydney. We definitely enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend Parkview Hotel to anyone visiting Orange.

Jumped in the shower the first night and noticed right at the door on the tiled floor a long hair and balled bit of paper, enough said, it hadn't been cleaned properly. The bed was dishevelled looking and mattress had a nasty slope to it, woke up with sore backs both mornings. Didn't realise it was mainly miners staying there otherwise I wouldn't have, alot ofcar doors banging etc early hours. Could hear the guy piddling in his toilet next door...yuck. Not an enjoyable stay and mentioned the shower at reception with little to no care. I always give reception a chance to right the wrongs before I review but I got nothing, its simply pretty much set up for the shift workers and that's it.
