Oran Hotels with Shuttle Service

I was in Oran for work but have known the place from my childhood. Since in love with the Art of Etienne Dinet, I loved my stay if only to go around and admire the gallery. One thing I would love to suggest is to offer choices of Algerian/ local traditionally prepared dishes at the restaurants. Also kittle in rooms as I was desperately looking for coffee or tea in the night.

While it is a Sonatrach affiliate I found comparable to other European hotels. I spent 4 days for a conference and meetings and overall satisfied. My room was fairly updated, and unlike others I found the food to be of good quality and selection for the region. I did only partake in the buffet for all meals. It does get crowded and not all patrons are familiar with queuing but still a pleasant experience. My first time in Oran, and I was a bit cautious,as such I didn’t venture out much this trip, but did feel very safe while on property. Staff was professional and one of the biggest “perks” was the complimentary airport shuttle👏.

The hotel is very good and the rooms are very spacious, clean, the bed is very comfortable. However, the negative sides, the first is that parking is very difficult to reach the hotel because it does not connect, it only connects the hotel apartments, which is problematic when you have big bags, The second problem is the household women who touch 10h in the room and opens the door without even approval, finally the last negative point is the night's deep-down music that is probably due to a chicha.

A group of us arrived for one night before catching an early flight at the nearby airport. Half the group were given keys that didn’t work for their rooms and had to go back to reception. My key worked but as soon as I plunged it into the key slot on the wall of my room the whole key slot fell off the wall and I was plunged into darkness. They weren’t surprised when I told them about this problem so I suspect it hasn’t been fixed. The room was fairly spacious and clean but there was no towel or toilet paper. Fortunately, I noticed this early enough. Others didn’t and were caught short. The staff tried to pillage toilet paper from other rooms but all of them had no paper. They finally gave me the industrial size toilet paper from the lobby toilet. Several of our group were missing their bottled water. Hotel seemingly has no inventory management. The WIFI didn’t work. The restaurant is on the 6th floor and sports a decent view of Oran from wrap around windows. The menu is decent too and the food quality acceptable. However, I waited 2.15 minutes for an omelette only to be told they ran out of eggs and would have to go buy some. At least that meant they had eggs for breakfast the next morning (20 minutes) and were willing to prepare breakfast at 5 AM for our group. I give them credit for that though it was very slim pickings if you didn’t have time to wait for your omelette. The kitchen and other hotel staff sat in the 6th floor stairwell and smoked during our meal wafting cigarette smoke our way. There are loads of hotels nearby including international chains like Four Points Sheraton. Do yourself a favor and stay there.

Great stay I recommend

Hotel and staff were nice, we are satisfied!
