It was great, just make sure there are no weddings when you want to stay so you can use property fully.

I stayed here for my birthday. Her husband didn't know about this place, but he had high expectations because it was Boris's house, which he had seen in Royal Pains. However, since the building is over 100 years old, it looks very old-fashioned and old. There was a smell from the heater and the water was hot and cold. There was no dog option, but it was dog friendly so I took my dog. The dog was charged $200 per day for lodging. But my dog is infected with a fungus and is sick. There is no refrigerator or coffee machine. Even if it was there, I wouldn't have eaten it. There were a few cars there that looked like people were staying there (a lot of the rooms seemed empty) and they gave me a room with a very small window, but it felt like a prison. However, the staff are very friendly. There is no separate parking fee, but you must pay a valet fee. the smell of old carpet A bed that swallows up your waist is quite impressive. Rather eat at the restaurant and take as many photos as you want in the garden and library! Don't sleep here, go somewhere else.

Our stay at Ohrka Castle was such a pleasure. From the moment you drive up the tree lined drive you know you’re in for a unique experience. The whole staff took care of our every need. We booked tour the day of our stay so arrived around noon and to our surprise they gladly let us check in early. We then went on the tour and was showed a beautiful auite to which I inquired about an upgrade afterwards and to my surprise even they upgraded us to one with a beautiful view and seperate bath and shower. We had dinner at the restaurant delicious and then breakfast in the banquet room which was magical because we were the only ones there and they still treated us like royalty. If you have the opportunity to stay please do and experience an amazing castle.

The grounds and the building are absolutely spectacular. The rooms are getting very tired. When I stay at Oheka, I want an experience. I didn’t - and it didn’t- feel special at all. Hard to find outlets for the phone, the sound machine, etc. Furniture was pretty worn and it seemed like there was limited staff.

There was no heat and they did not have another option. We had to use a space heater blower which was noisy and very dry air. They were going to not charge me, btw I had my family so we had 4 rooms and 3 of them did not have proper heat. We were offered additional blankets that were old and worn. It was a terrible experience and I would not recommend this hotel. We were stuck there without any service to resolve our situation. A the worst thing was it was Thanksgiving to be spent with our adult children and my grandson. It was not a place I would return to again or recommend.

The building and grounds are unique and impressive. It is more of an event venue than a hotel for individual travelers. The room was of good size, with a 3 compartment bathroom with a separate shower, vanity and toilet/tub room but overall the room lacked convenience features of most modern hotels e.g. mini-frig, coffee/tea maker. The king bed could use a new mattress. This double-king room only had 1 chair and nowhere else to sit except on the bed, it also only had 1 bathrobe. Although the staff expressed a desire to please, No mention of guest breakfast when we checked in.,we were only given vague instructions on how to find our room, an alarm panel in the lobby beeped for hours. Be prepared to carry your luggage up a long flight of stairs to get to the level with the elevator.

I have dined several times celebrating different occasions at Oheka Castle over the years. This time I decided to stay over night at Oheka Castle just for a getaway. The room was nice. comfortable and.clean. The staff was very friendly and attentive to your needs. The food and atmosphere was excellent. We dined outside this time since the weather was so nice. WE would go back again.

We opted to stay at the Oheka Castle primarily for the "wow" factor. After all, how often does one get to stay in a 1920s faux-Versailles mansion? It definitely did not disappoint on the weird and wonderful front, but it was not entirely what we expected. The mansion was redone from near ruin 20 years ago, but not at anything like museum restoration level. The shelves in the library, just as an example, are stacked with used bookstore castoffs. The curtains and other furnishings in the rooms are OK knockoffs of what they should be, but are already showing their age. The hotel is clearly set up for large events like weddings (and has some nice spaces for that) rather than passing guests. We felt like we were just about the only guests in the place, walking through the echoing halls seeing the occasional staff member and no one else. As a location, Oheka is an island. Other than the neighboring golf course, there isn't anything around it other than houses. The parterre garden at one end of the hotel is a pleasant place to stroll, but once you have done that and walked those echoing halls, you've pretty much run out of things to do. The in-house restaurant was good, as much for the people-watching as anything else. The hotel staff also matched the whole aimed-but-missed-the-target feel of the place. Friendly, certainly, and casual almost to a fault. But they definitely contributed to the amusing -- and bemusing -- nature of the experience of Oheka Castle.
