“Very lovely, but room service wasn't available”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 18, 2013

My boyfriend and another friend stayed there on New Year's Eve. The hotel is lovely and the stay was wonderful, but because room service is managed by the "Captain's Table" restaurant located within the hotel--and they were hosting a private party--there was no room service available! We had looked forward to relaxing in our room but instead had to venture out . . . and since it was the off-season, not much was open in Ocean City. I would recommend this hotel, but if you expect room service, call ahead to be sure that they will not be otherwise engaged.

Thank you for your response therongjr. We are happy that you enjoyed your stay with us on New Year's Eve. The New Year's Eve dining in the Captain's Table was by reservation for that night only. I do apologize for any inconvience that this may have caused you during your stay with us. We do offer room service to our rooms every morning and night; however, New Year's Eve was the one night that it was not available. We look forward to serving you as our guest again on your next trip to Ocean City!

“Great Hotel on the Boardwalk”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 5, 2013

We stayed here for a 2-day getaway for my husband's birthday. We got a great deal since it was off-peak when we went there. Our room was spacious with a sitting area. We got a street view room and there were not a lot of guests at the time of our stay so it was pretty quiet. It was clean and the bed was comfortable. We had breakfast at the restaurant and the food was good. The hotel is right on the boardwalk and very accessible if you want to go for a walk or just dip your toes in the Atlantic Ocean (chilly in October). It was definitely a relaxing stay and we'd stay here again.

“Relaxing stay in quality hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 30, 2012

Had a wonderful weekend getaway. New, clean hotel. Very comfortable beds. Breakfast from captains restaurant very tasty and convenient. Restaurant is clean. Will stay here again. Hotel right by beach. Stayed in room with street view. Can get to beach from parking lot. Very short walk. Lovely time. Only downside if you can call it that was noisy fan or heater - our room was on 4th floor, and no liners/bags in room waste baskets. Didn't really matter since we had plastic bags and I didn't ask for them. Really really pleasant stay.

Room Tip: 4th floor appears to be top floor. Ocean front rooms on lower floors are directly accessible to beac...

“Weekend get away”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 16, 2012

My wife and I just returned home from a two night stay at the Marriott in Ocean City. I booked our room back in August and paid less than $100/night for an ocean view room. We were thrilled with our room and our overall stay. Shortly after settling in our room the front desk called to ask how our room was and to find out if we needed anything else. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The parking under the hotel was a little tight, but there's additional parking across the street that looked to have larger spaces. We didn't eat at the on sight restaurant as it was a little expensive for our taste, but they had a Christmas party there to support Toys for Tots which I thought was a nice touch. My only complaint is the same as every hotel/resort I've stayed in, the beds are to hard. Other than that we loved our stay and plan on staying again in the future.

“Nice Hotel on the Beach”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 16, 2012

This was our third time staying here within the past 12 months...twice in December ('11 and '12) to attend Christmas parties, and once in September as a stopover on our way home from Vermont. My overall impression is that this is a nice hotel, but the beach location must be what drives Marriott to consider this a '7' in their rating scale for what constitutes a free night in frequent sleeper points. So, while I do not feel that it deserves the high rating for free stays, it's nice enough that I have paid to stay there three times in the past year!!!!! The location on the boardwalk is really a great perk if you are so inclined to use it.

Now for the details.....the parking is crazy tight and the 3rd floor lobby is kinda weird. I have never asked why it is located where it is, but I have never seen another hotel arranged like this. For our three stays, we have had ocean front, side street, and Baltimore Ave. street rooms. The Baltimore Avenue room was in the best shape, as it appears to me the ocean front get the most use as well as wear and tear. It came with a jet tub and was really quiet despite the street location....must be because it was December and there was little Sat night traffic. And there was a sweet little in-room bar area where you could have snacks or make drinks that included a mini-fridge and microwave The beds are comfortable and the linens are also nice. They are very strict about smoking in the rooms ($250 fee per incident) and won't even let you burn a candle, or if I remember corectly, smoke on the balconies. I'm OK with that as I can't stand staying in rooms that have been smoked in. And because it is so clean, there is no need for a scented candle (why we always bring one). It could also be about fire safety issues, which is also OK.

Never have used the pool area, so can't comment. The bar is great, and we had breakfast in the restaurant this morning and it was very good and reasonably priced for what you get. The entire hotel is very clean.

The staff is the best thing about this hotel...they are professional and pleasant, and are willing to help out with anything that they can. This goes from the front desk clerks to the bar and restuarant servers.

We will continue to come here in the off-season as opportunities present themselves, but it's pretty pricey in-season due to the location.

Room Tip: Can't beat drinking your free morning coffee from your balcony overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.
