Top Ripley's Believe It or Not! Hotel Reviews

Rideau Oceanfront Motel

8/10 Good

"nice beach view balcony was nice place to set out"

Holiday Inn & Suites Ocean City by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were very clean and the ocean front balcony view was amazing. The staff was also amazing, from housekeeping to the onsite restaurant. Our stay was mid-October but we plan to return next summer. Would give a rating of 20/10! The shower was in a jucuzzi tub. Ok, but would rather have a walk in shower."

The Americana Hotel

8/10 Good

"I wish I had a room that didn’t face the wall could not sit out because all I saw was a wall"

Grand Hotel Ocean City Oceanfront

8/10 Good

"Grand terrace restaurant was a complete disaster. Wait time was incredibly long for a waitress. After 15 minutes arrived at table took my order never returned with drinks. Meanwhile watched her serve coffee to a table that walked in right before us and even refilled there coffees. Us and another man both left without food. Restaurant was horribly understaffed. I would strongly suggest going to another establishment in area. Plenty of choices"
