Top Ripley's Believe It or Not! Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn & Suites Ocean City by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Had a great stay will definitely stay there again."

Grand Hotel Ocean City Oceanfront

10/10 Excellent

"Good location"

Hotel Monte Carlo Ocean City

8/10 Good

"The hotel was in a great spot for what we were there for. The staff were very pleasant. The room was clean and large. The only complaint is there were no non skid appliqués in the bottom of the tub nor a bath mat. Needless to say we had to stay in one spot in the back of the tub and lean our heads to shampoo + no towel. rack or anything in the tub to hold on to.. Very scary and disappointing when you needed a hot shower after hours of standing at a concert! Otherwise an enjoyable stay."
