We arrived at 9pm without reservation and the reception was closed for the night. With much embarrassment, we bothered the staff in their private accommodation and the reception was re-opened just for us (Thanks and apologies again) and we checked in. The upstairs has two-story one bedroom apartments. The kitchen, bathroom and sofa-bed is downstairs, the king bed is upstairs.... More

I can agree with the other reviewers. Lovely, peaceful, quiet OFF-SEASON in early March. I know this tiny town fills up in the summer. We stayed in a ground-level room with a tile floor, a dog-friendly room. It's in a residential neighborhood, but only 2 blocks from the main drag. Room was very nice, freshly decorated, very comfortable bed and... More

My wife and I stayed here and enjoyed our visit to Oriental, NC -- this hotel was clean and nice -- the staff was friendly and helpful -- This is a small town hotel but I was please with the experience. There are not a lot of hotel options in this area. I loved the adirondack chairs in the front... More

We loved this motel, and highly recommend it to people looking to spend some time in a quiet little village near the coast. You can borrow one of their bikes and tour the entire town, or you can just sit and relax on the lawn. Nice people too!

My 11-year old son and I stayed here last weekend before going sailing the next day (we rented a 24' sailboat from Oriental Sailing School, also highly recommended!). We arrived late, but check-in was a snap (they left the key out for us, and room was ready-to-go). We stayed in a very reasonably priced, two-story "mini-suite" (bedroom upstairs,living area and...

Came for one night as a little road trip getaway...we had room 201, best view in the whole place. It overlooks the water, very clean and well appointed suite/condo-tel. Loved it and would recommend it. Jackie at the front desk was great, although I could tell that just from talking with her earlier in the week when making reservations. Great... More

Multiple members of my family have stayed at this great little hotel over the years. The reason is a clean, comfortable room with everything we need to make our trips to Oriental a great experience. The location is perfect; walking distance to anywhere such as the town marina or local shops. Plus, the hotel owns a few beach cruiser type... More

This was our second visit to the hotel. The first visit, no problems. This time, a few. The hotel is in a great location, clean, on the river, walkable to everything in town, innkeeper lives on site. Downside of all this is that the hotel isn't a good place to stay if you are bothered by perfume smells or have... More

Perfect location for a waterfront destination wedding. The waterfront views are breathtaking and the location is awesome for a wedding and reception. Wedding party all stayed at hotel, which was great so you were not waiting or looking for wedding party members.A fun time was had by all. Rooms are beautiful, very comfortable, and quiet. Jackie & Larry, Innkeepers, are... More
