Gold Leaf Hotel of Dewey - Rehoboth Beach
Nice, reasonably priced, and great location. I’ve stayed here many times while visiting Dewey Beach. Rooms are somewhat dated and carpeting is worn, but still a good overall experience. Free 24 hour coffee in the lobby is a nice bonus.

Atlantic Sands Hotel & Conference Center
The front desk staff were very welcoming and friendly. We had a double queen room that was clean and spacious, with a living room, balcony and partial ocean view. Only wished the bedroom and living room were flipped so the bedroom was away from the entry and hallway noise. The hotel location is great ...
