Top Sunset Island Hotel Reviews

Castle in the Sand

10/10 Excellent

"Nice front desk guy. Typical OC room but clean"

Holiday Inn & Suites Ocean City by IHG

8/10 Good

"We had a generally great stay at the Holiday Inn & Suites Ocean City. Our room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable, and we especially loved the large balcony. There was plenty of room to spread out, and overall the hotel was a nice place to stay while visiting Ocean City. One thing we found a little strange was that the restaurant and bar are located right in the indoor pool area. It’s definitely an unusual setup and not quite the atmosphere you’d normally expect for a restaurant/bar. We also ended up leaving a day early because of the weather and our travel plans. We let the hotel know we were leaving, but noticed that we weren’t actually checked out in their system until the date of our original reservation. Nothing necessarily came of it, but we thought that was a little odd. Overall, though, we had a positive experience. The cleanliness, spacious room, and big balcony were definite highlights, and we would consider staying here again when visiting Ocean City."

Plim Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had an absolute blast staying here. The staff and the other guests were great! We were there for the Nor’Easter and although the Oceans Calling Festival was cancelled and the weather was awful we still had fun. We did cut our stay short due to deteriorating weather conditions, but booked for next year before we left. If you want a clean place to stay and want to be surrounded by all the OC Boardwalk has to offer, look no further. Yes, the rooms are small but what are you doing in your room? Go outside, hang out on the porch or the huge lobby. So much fun."

Comfort Suites Ocean City West

8/10 Good

"The front desk staff was extremely helpful and courteous. The hotel, including the rooms were very clean. My only complaint being that when I returned from swimming in the pool one afternoon, that my room door was propped open by the housekeeping staff, with none of them in sight. I stood by for several minutes to see if anyone would return or was keeping an eye on the room, but nobody did. This was a little disconcerting as I had left valuable camera equipment along with my wallet, in the room while swimming. Nothing was missing but these actions left the room unsecure and anyone in the hotel could have easily gained access to it!"
