We booked this hotel on the basis of the reviews on Trip Advisor but our experience must have been quite different as the owner was away in Chile during the time we were there. Apparently when he is away things aren't run quite the same way, so there was no pick-up at the airport (despite the email I received 2... More

The Hotel Orongo is ideal for the budget traveller or anyone who wants to be treated like family. The owner charms you with genuine hospitality that typifies Rapa Nui. They are situated perfectly for the airport and the town of Hangua Roa. The rooms are clean and presentable, the gardens surrounding the hotel are quite exceptional. More

The people running the hotel are friendly and nice. As others have said, rooms are clean if dated. No AC but you can get by with the fan in the room and nights are cool. No WiFi but there is an internet cafe just a few doors down...if the electricity is working...there were several outages citywide while we were there,... More

The town of Hanga Roa is very small and so there are not a huge amount of budget options available to stay. My husband and I booked Hotel Orongo after checking trip advisor reviews which were pretty accurate and for the price. The rooms are very basic but not bad for a budget traveller and is the more reasonably priced... More

I'm not sure I can describe how odd our stay was there...we were one of two couples there...very strange owners...it says it comes with breakfast but they said that was only continental...and that things were different because it was low season...no WIFI, no TV....which would be OK but not a lot going on at night on Easter Island...Bizarre is all...

Great find on Easter Island. Rooms are clean, location is right close to everything you need and the garden area is beautiful. Raul, the owner, is excellent and he makes sure you have everything you need during your stay. Don't turn down his dinner offer either, as it was one of the best tasting - and best priced - places...

We left another hotel after the first night because of a bad experience and stumbled upon Orongo on the main road at about 7pm. The 'caretaker' (for lack of a better word), Raul, welcomed us. He said he did not have a ready room but we could return tomorrow. After viewing a room, we loved it! We asked again if... More

This is a relaxed, laid-back sort of place - but that's what you want on Easter Island! We enjoyed staying at this fairly basic, but attractive and friendly hotel. Raul, who runs it, is laid-back to the point of horizontal, but underlying his somewhat bizarre and eccentric character is a real charm and friendliness. For example, the first night we... More

We stayed here in Spring of 2009-- I'm just going over my notes from that trip and thought I'd do a review. I believe Raul was not there when we stayed, but the hostess that was there took very good care of us. The hotel is in a fine location with a rental car company located across the street, an... More
