It's a cute venue for a wedding, but heck even for a work event. I'm sad that I didn't any photos though. I loved the details inside the hall. The wooden beams and chandeliers. It's modern rustic. This place was clean. We had a continental breakfast and prepped lunch box to take home afterwards. I chose the beef bulgogi with rice and veggies. Not sure if it was made in house, but it was delicious! I couldn't give it a full 5 stars because I didn't get a chance to walk around and check it out. read more

This place was cute and lovely. Came for my cousins wedding. It's in Orange, it's a cute venue all in one. Parking is off site with a shuttle but close to walk if you want. Location is good to go out after. The venue is on the small side but really well thought out and cute. The staff were amazing with the speed and attention to detail. Excellent customer service from the bartenders, servers, DJ, planners, etc all great. The venue has nice places to spread out and get good vibes. The main hall for reception/ ceremony was big and nice. The prep rooms for the wedding party were good and overall the venue/hotel is small and boutique like but really comfy cozy with good vibes. read more

This venue is the perfect balance of cozy and elegant. I've coordinated a wedding here before and the staff is extremely helpful, but yesterday I had a wonderful chance to sit down and dine here, and the food was just terrific. 10/10, would recommend this venue over and over again for any event. read more

Did a wedding here and had the absolute best time! The venue is so unique in its decor and has so much charm. They offer a shuttle/bus to take guests from the parking to the venue for easy access and travel. Staff was helpful, efficient, and kind as well. Can't wait to come back here later this year! read more

As a photographer specializing in an editorial and documentary style, I found The Richland in Old Towne Orange to be an absolute masterclass in intentional design. I recently captured a wedding here, and it is a premier choice for couples who want their wedding to feel elevated, modern, and distinct. What makes this venue so special for photography is the seamless blend of historic charm and high-end modern upgrades. The restoration is stunning--you get the soul of a historic property but with a polished, eclectic aesthetic that feels incredibly refreshing and fun to experience for your stay or guest experience. From the rich textures in the getting-ready room and bridal makeup suites, to the sun-soaked courtyard, their grand staircase for a private moment, along with their cocktail lounge, every corner is a curated backdrop that lends itself to a sophisticated and nostalgic environment. The event and venue team are true professionals who understand the flow of a high-end event, while balancing exceptional hospitality for wedding weekend stays. Their attention to detail allows the couple to remain present, which is essential for me to capture those raw, documentary moments and artistic, "in-between" shots during the wedding day. For engaged couples who view their wedding as a special investment, and want a venue that feels like a boutique editorial set that truly speaks for itself, The Richland is totally unmatched in Orange County. I'm already looking forward to my next wedding weekend here with another amazing couple! read more

This was the PERFECT wedding venue. The staff was amazing, catering was awesome and had so many guests compliment the food. We absolutely loved the venue and the surrounding area was also super nice. The venue itself was already so beautiful making it easy on us when it came to planning. We also loved the bridal suite, it was a stunning area to get ready and offered the bridal party a breather when we were trying to hide from guests. read more

First time at The Richland. I got the Do not Disturb and shared the home-style potsto chips, house cheese and charcuterie, and the Margherita Flatbread. All were great! The Do not Disturb was not too sweet and a fun twist on my usual old fashioned. read more

Wife and I came out for a date night. We really loved the living room vibe of the bar and how friendly the bartenders are. We both enjoy old fashioneds so we tried the different variations they had and they did not disappoint. Some negative comments were the price of a drink, granted you don't get much but their well is Old Forrester so you do get top quality spirits. We tried the chips with their dips and they were solid. I had the ceviche and really enjoyed that. The wife ordered the katsu sandwich but we wished it was crispier. Flavor was there though. What needs its own section are the fries. These were probably the best French fries I have ever had. I didn't care for the dip and wanted either just ranch or ketchup, but holy damn I would come back just for the fries. Overall really cute spot and will come back again for date night. read more

I was a part of a wedding at this venue in the heart of Orange. While the wedding was beautiful and the staff did a great job setting up, the overall experience was marred by unfriendly service. The bartender seemed annoyed when asked for water, a waiter treated us like criminals for requesting an extra bread roll (which we were denied), and the servers refused to give us an additional plate of food sent by the bride and groom and again, treated us like criminals for even asking. Even when I approached the outdoor bar for water, I was curtly told to find the water station inside. These encounters with unfriendly staff were disappointing, although a few team members were nice, the majority were not. It's clear that management aims to provide exceptional service, as this venue is part of The 24 Carrots Collective, but it falls short due to what seemed like grumpy staff members. The start of the service was good as management was really communicative on room reservations and also extremely accommodating. The venue staff was also really well-organized for hosting a larger beautiful wedding. The bridal suite was a bit cramped for six bridesmaids and their makeup artists, so if you're considering this venue, keep that in mind. The space for dinner service felt tight with 160 guests in a good way as this created a cozy and lively atmosphere, especially for the dance floor once the lights dimmed. The food was also a highlight, especially since the couple opted to upgrade to Seabass, which was delicious. Overall, the venue offers a charming setting for a fun wedding, but the service could use improvement or certain staff members could use more training. Additionally, parking is a challenge if you're not staying overnight in one of the boutique hotel's twelve rooms. For weddings, they do offer a trolley service from a nearby parking area, which is a helpful option. I didn't end up staying overnight after learning that the hotel used to be a mortuary, which made me feel uneasy. However, the guests who did stay seemed to really enjoy their experience. The hotel is conveniently located, surrounded by plenty of eateries, which is a big plus. In summary, while the venue offers a charming setting and the wedding itself was wonderful, the experience was ruined by inconsistent service. If you're considering this venue, be prepared for both the charm and quirks that come with it. With a few improvements, this place could truly shine to its 24 Carrots potential! read more

Lovely hotel with excellent service. We loved the prime location, walkable to everything! Many restaurants within a block or two.

My dream was to have a wedding where everyone felt the comfort of being home and The Richland did not disappoint! The Richland is a beautiful wedding venue/small hotel. Their venue space is a great blank space that is beautiful as is or minimal enough to get as creative as you want. Outside there are two cozy outdoor spaces for guests to mingle before your event and during cocktail hour. The bridal getting ready suite is included in venue rental. They have outlets everywhere in the suite and is a good size for a group of 6 people to get ready in. The venue is managed by 24 Carrots catering. This company pleasantly surprised me with how accommodating they were to tailor the menu to the culture of me and my husband. If there was something they could not accommodate, there was no problem finding other vendors in addition to their services. Their food is delicious. The variety of their menu options is huge. And they are very transparent about working with allergies/other food restrictions of guests. Their ability to estimate how much food to prepare for the party size is perfect. It's been a week since my wedding and I continue to have guests telling me how much they loved the food. PS the bathrooms are gorgeous!!!!! read more

We rented a room for the day as a staging area for a nearby photoshoot, and the staff couldn't have been more welcoming. They even let us capture a few shots around their gorgeous property, which turned out beautifully. The surrounding neighborhood is equally charming, and I can't wait to come back as a guest and explore more next time. read more

The Cottage @ The Richland was so impressive. We had everything we needed and beds/pillows were comfortable. My daughter had her wedding here on 6/06/25. The staff was very attentive and made everything so easy for us. We would definitely stay here again and recommend having event here. read more

I had a wonderful and personalized stay at The Richland. It felt like home. Beyond the rooms, which are beautifully and tastefully decorated akin to the Arts & Crafts architecture, the staff, especially Katherine and Sarah, were amazing. When I extended my stay, they switched things around so I could stay in the room I loved while also letting me know that a wedding was happening that weekend so the room could be noisier, and offered me various room choices. There's a yummy breakfast buffet on Fridays. And The Richland is right in Old Towne Orange, so cafes, restaurants and stores are all within walking distance. Finally, there was a once-in-a-year rainstorm and of course, they had umbrellas for the guests. Will definitely stay here the next time I'm back in Orange. read more

From the beginning of the planning process, the staff at The Richland was dedicated to ensuring all of our questions were answered. Everyone was kind, diligent and made sure we had the most beautiful and special day. The Richland provided a modern yet elegant space with flexible options to create our dream wedding. With both indoor and outdoor private spaces, it offered the best of both worlds and was filled with natural light. Overall, we had an amazing experience at The Richland and highly recommend it to any couple looking for a wedding venue. read more

Really Enjoyed this place for happy hour. This new-ish hotel blends into Old Town Orange. The bar area feels like a cozy living room. The bartenders are very friendly and will make you a custom drink. The food we tried wasn't great. Homemade potato wedges with dips didn't taste fresh. The dips were fine. The chicken sandwich was decent but nothing crazy. read more

The Richland is a beautiful property in the heart of Downtown Orange. Close to all the fun shops and restaurants. Although we did not stay for an event, it seems that the Richland would be the perfect location and venue for a wedding or party. Every detail of our room was on point and it was so comfortable and charming. read more

Love this little gem of a bar at the Orange Circle! It's great to pop in and grab a cocktail before or after dinner, but they also take reservations if you want to be sure to have a table. We love sitting at the bar where it's easier to socialize and watch the creation of the drinks. Everything I have tried has been great. I would love to give this place 5 stars, but their service is lacking. The men that work here are cocky, rude, and dry. This place could be so much more with a shift in expectations from management to have friendly service. read more

When a lodging guest checks in, they initial an itemized code of conduct. Included in that is a quiet time from 10 pm to a reasonable time in the morning. This quiet time does not, apparently, apply to staff or event attendees. A loud conversation between employees just after midnight Saturday morning occurred just outside my window and lasted until 1:30 a.m. That evening's reception had an excellent band that played until 11:15. Reception attendees kept up the cacophony until well after midnight. If the jam is to be lively at all hours, commit to it and drop the pretense of quiet consideration of lodgers. read more

Honestly, I am a little torn between a 4 or 5 so I think that is a great sign that the hotel is lovely. Things to consider: 1. It's in Old Towne Orange so you are basically only a short walk away from food and shopping. 2. It's a close Uber drive to most venues for shows in the area. 3. The hotel is beautiful and has a lot of history. 4. The service was amazing and they have security on site overnight. 5. The downside for the room we stayed in was how much we could hear other guests. I am a very light sleeper so I heard the attic room until nearly 5am talking all night long. As the hotel was once a home this makes sense, but I think sound machines in the room might be a nice touch or maybe having a quiet hour in place. All in all my husband didn't seem bothered by the noise and eventually I did get a few hours of sleep. The hotel is adorable and I would encourage people to experience a stay. read more

We coordinated a wedding here recently. Bree/Sarah and her team were so easy to work with and very communicative. When we step foot on the property we were in great hands - the setup team, folks in the office, and staff throughout the entire night took good care of us and felt supported to ensure our couple had an amazing wedding experience. They even gave my partner and I snack bags during the setup, which was very kind and thoughtful because as a vendor, we typically take care of everyone else. I wish every venue was this kind and helpful! Thank you again Richland for the hospitality! read more

We booked our wedding here after having a very poor experience with our previously booked venue. It was honestly the best decision we could have made! It's an all in one ceremony and reception space. The staff was super responsive to any request, and the overall experience was simply amazing. The venue itself is impeccable, stylish, and gorgeous! So many accommodations and just an overall beautiful venue. Highly recommend this venue! read more

We had our wedding here a few weeks ago and it was AMAZING. The team at the Richland was absolutely amazing. The catering team & bar tenders were all so kind- our guests commented on how smoothly things went and how kind everyone working at the wedding was. I had hoped that our wedding would be fun and as stress free as possible (it was!) but what exceeded my expectations was how it seemed like every single person at The Richland went above and beyond to make it a great experience for everyone. Special thanks to Bree for helping us in the final push with details and excellent communication with us and the other vendors. We couldn't have picked a better venue with a better team if we tried! read more

I rented the facility in early March this year for a pre wedding dinner reception, while the 24 carrots catering staff was very responsive to servicing issues during the events, the sale / hotel event manager and her assistant were terrible during the whole process, failing to follow-up with meeting/email timeline and coordination. specific details as agreed in contract some how were not aware /acknowledged by the catering staff. Misunderstanding as having "a" parking spot for the couple was treated as committing a criminal act, we would be happy to move, no need for the hotel staff to use "the tone" right before the event. We paid decent $$ for the whole thing and expected a better overall services. I will not using 24 carrots again. read more

Delicious flatbread pizza! Incredible craft cocktails. Staff is super friendly, ambience is cool.

Our stay at The Richland was beyond amazing and blew away any expectations we had. The staff was SO accommodating and friendly and we can't say enough how welcomed we felt. They thought of every little detail in the design of the room, and it was so comfortable and cute. The bar/restaurant was just as fantastic and we has a wonderful dinner both nights we were there - paired with excellent cocktails. Don't miss out on this wonderful addition to the area, the team behind The Richland has done a great job and their staff continues to keep up with the great service.

Wonderful food and the drinks are amazing. The bartenders are the best mixologists. She even made a Ramis Fizz that was the best I've had. Small, so makes for a great atmosphere. This place will be somewhere we will certainly frequent. read more

I attended a super party at this venue last week and decided to spend the night. Every element of my stay was fantastic. The room was incredibly chic and the service was unbelievable. The person who checked me in walked me to my room, even. When does that ever happen? High quality finishes and linens/towels w such a sophisticated modern/craftsman esthetic. They offer a free mocktail in the fridge which is a welcoming touch. This property sure beats staying in a soulless hotel in Anaheim. I hope I'll have a chance to return. read more

Super cute vibe for a cocktail. However, drinks are overpriced. They offer one cab by the glass which is as much as buying a bottle. I was surprised at the lack of variety. Especially because there were multiple options for other wines. Probably wouldn't go back for drinks. But super cute decor. read more

I was in a wedding here and it was so ideal to stay on the property. The rooms are large and spacious. The aesthetic details of the room and bathroom felt cozy and clean.
