Top West Ocean City Hotel Reviews

Francis Scott Key Family Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay and would come back. Great pools, dvds, mini golf, playground, volleyball, restaurants. Really great location just a couple minutes from the beach."

Quality Inn Oceanfront

10/10 Excellent

"The place had a great elevator super fast, close to the beach, nice hot tubs (2) which they changed the water every day nice, the inside pool was a little cold maybe a heater, the outside pool looked nice but the weather sucked really bad so we didn't get to use it oh well not their fault the staff was nice good free coffee and tea pretty good parking, the tropical birds were cool fish, and turtles too. All in all pretty nice would stay again hopefully with better weather. Thanks."

Majestic Hotel & Apartments

8/10 Good

"The hotel had been renovated recently but the room I was in had not been updated. The bathroom had a very old sink and toilet and the towel holder was rusty. The bed was comfortable, the air conditioner worked, and there was a mini-fridge. The lobby area was clean and the staff was very friendly. There is an extra fee to pay for their parking lot and it's a little difficult to navigate the lot but as parking in the area is very limited, it's necessary to deal with."
